Description
## Feature Request
### Summary
The project would benefit from structured logging to make it easier to debug issues in production.
### Motivation
Currently it can be difficult to understand what the application is doing at runtime without adding print statements. Proper logging would:
- Allow users to control verbosity with log levels (DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR)
- Make it easier to integrate with log aggregation systems
- Help diagnose issues in production without code changes
### Proposed Implementation
```python
import logging
log = logging.getLogger(__name__)
def my_function():
log.debug("Starting my_function")
# ...
log.info("my_function completed successfully")
```
### Impact
Low risk change with high value for users running this in production environments.
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or Go entry points. Start by locating the project's runtime logging entry points and reviewing how production diagnostics are currently emitted. Done should include structured logs, controllable DEBUG/INFO/WARNING/ERROR levels, and compatibility with log aggregation systems.
