Runtime policies as an actual gate rather than prompt instructions is the right model. Most frameworks just bolt governance on as a wrapper and hope the model obeys. What I'd want on top of this: observability into why agents are hitting policy blocks, not just that they were blocked.

Yep, totally agree. And Orloj has this built in. Tracks the entire lifecycle of your tasks through traces in real time so you can audit why everything happened good/bad. During your task you can see how many tokens each call used (input/output), and latency for each model/tool call.
