⚑ Key Takeaways

  • Polly now persists across all LangSmith pages, remembering contexts for smoothly debugging.
  • It takes actions like editing prompts and writing evaluators, acting as an on-call engineer.
  • Skeptics note: LangChain profits from the complexity Polly fixes, raising ecosystem lock-in flags.
