Introducing New Relic Preflight for AI Coding Observability

New Relic Preflight is an open-source observability tool designed to monitor AI-assisted development workflows by tracking token costs and identifying inefficient patterns like "thrashing" or "stuck loops." It provides developers with automated weekly efficiency reports and budget alerts to help optimize both productivity and expenditure. The tool can be run locally for individual use or integrated into the New Relic platform for organization-wide visibility into AI coding metrics.
