Metrics provides Agent observability for Cloud Agents and automated workflows. Agent observability answers a simple question: What are my AI agents doing, and is it working? Use Metrics to monitor agent activity, understand human intervention, measure success rates, and evaluate the cost and impact of AI-driven work across your repositories.
What Metrics Show About Your Cloud Agents
Continue’s Metrics give you operational observability for AI agents, similar to how traditional observability tools provide visibility into services, jobs, and pipelines. Instead of logs and latency, agent observability focuses on:- Runs and execution frequency
- Success vs. human intervention
- Pull request outcomes
- Cost per run and per workflow
Agent Activity & Execution Volume
Agent Activity & Execution Volume
Understand when and how often your agents run.
- See which Cloud Agents are running most often
- Spot spikes, trends, or recurring failures
- Monitor automated Workflows in production
Agent Success & Outcome Metrics
Agent Success & Outcome Metrics
Measure whether agents produce usable results.
- Total runs
- PR creation rate
- PR status (open, merged, closed, failed)
- Success vs. intervention rate
Workflow Reliability & Impact
Workflow Reliability & Impact
Evaluate automated agent workflows in production.
- Which Workflows generate the most work
- Completion and success rates
- Signals that a Workflow needs refinement or guardrails
Why Metrics Matter
Improve Agent Reliability
Identify which Agents need better rules, tools, or prompts.
Measure Automation Value
See how much work your automated Workflows are completing across your repos.
Sharing Cloud Agent Metrics
Share your metrics with stakeholders, team members, or external collaborators using shareable snapshot links by clicking the Share button on your metrics page.Point-in-Time Snapshots
Point-in-Time Snapshots
When you create a share link, Continue captures a snapshot of your metrics data at that moment. The shared view displays:
- Summary stats (total runs, merge rate, active agents)
- Activity calendar showing run history
- Activity by agent chart
- Merge rate trend chart
No Authentication Required
No Authentication Required
Anyone with the share link can view the metrics snapshot without logging in. This makes it easy to share with stakeholders who don’t have Continue accounts.
Automatic Expiration
Automatic Expiration
Share links expire after 30 days by default. The expiration date is shown at the bottom of the shared view. After expiration, the link will no longer work.
Shared metrics are read-only snapshots. They don’t update when your live metrics change—create a new share link to share updated data.
