Investigate why an implementation changed direction

The final code rarely explains why an agent abandoned an earlier approach.

Problem being solved

The final code rarely explains why an agent abandoned an earlier approach.

Sample question to ask AgentPM

Why did this implementation change direction, and what evidence led to the final approach?

Expected results

A timeline of decisions, failed attempts, tool output, file changes, and turning points.

Why this is valuable

Engineers can evaluate the reasoning path instead of reverse-engineering it from the diff.
