Is there a way I can monitor and display the queries to gpg-agent so I

This is reminding me of a message Werner wrote[1] last year that
pinentry will show some context of the reason it is prompting. So this
functionality might be in the works.
Ah, interesting, sounds similar yes. I'd be very interested in hearing
more about this.
I assume you are prompted by a
pinentry to push the button?
I cache the pin so it only asks me sporadically and mostly at the start
of a work session but I have to push the button on the yubikey for every
query, so with cached PIN it means there's no pinentry prompt 99% of the
time.
As you note, if access to your agent was compromised, this would not
constitute solid protection as the information could be spoofed or
substituted. It is informative, though.
Right, I understand.
Kind regards,
Kristian.
