The offline eval suite is green, but live tool latency changes are creating user-visible failures. What would you add?

Instruction: Explain how you would expand evaluation when operational conditions are causing issues the offline suite misses.

I would add environment-aware evaluation and monitoring instead of treating latency as someone else’s system problem. If tool latency affects user-visible quality, then timing is part of the workflow contract and belongs in the reliability picture.

That means tracing tool durations, measuring timeout and retry behavior, and replaying offline evals...
