eBPF vs. BitDive: Why AI Agents Need Runtime Context, Not Just Kernel Syscalls
· 8 min read
TL;DR: eBPF is great for monitoring kernels, but it’s blind to business logic. For AI agents to effectively fix code, they need Real Runtime Data context: classes, methods, and parameters. BitDive delivers the exact Runtime Context that AI models (and humans) need to solve real application problems.

Why do we need production profiling at all?
Application performance isn't abstract. It's about real issues: errors, timeouts, lost users, and wasted money. But to understand what exactly is slow, it's not enough to know that "CPU is high." You need detail: which service, which method, which request, which parameters — the kind of code-level observability that only application-level instrumentation can provide.
