+agentDebug.completeTask('task-001', { findings: [...] });
+
+// Track decision
+agentDebug.logDecision(
+  'select_source',

+
+## 🎯 Use Cases
+
+### 1. Debug a Failing Agent
+
+```typescript
+const debug = createAgentDebugStream({
+  agentId: 'buggy-agent',
+  level: DebugLevel.TRACE, // Maximum detail
+  trackDecisions: true,
+});
+
+// When task fails, you'll see:
+// - Exact phase when failure occurred
+// - All decisions leading to failure
+// - Complete stack of operations
+// - Performance metrics showing slow operations
+```
+
+### 2. Understand Agent Behavior
+
+```typescript
+const debug = createAgentDebugStream({
+  agentId: 'learning-agent',
+  timeline: true,
+});
+
+// After agent runs:
+debug.printTimeline(); // See complete sequence of events
+```
+
+### 3. Performance Profiling
+
+```typescript
+const debug = createAgentDebugStream({
+  agentId: 'slow-agent',
+  level: DebugLevel.DETAILED,
+});
+
+// Track every operation with timing
+// Metrics show which operations are slow
+debug.printSummary(); // See performance breakdown
+```
+
+### 4. Multi-Agent Coordination
+
+```typescript
+// Track each agent individually
+const agent1Debug = createAgentDebugStream({ agentId: 'agent-1' });
+const agent2Debug = createAgentDebugStream({ agentId: 'agent-2' });
+const agent3Debug = createAgentDebugStream({ agentId: 'agent-3' });
+
+// See exactly how they interact
+agent1Debug.logCommunication('send', 'agent-2', {...});
+agent2Debug.logCommunication('receive', 'agent-1', {...});
+```
+
+---
+
