Note

Medium Risk
Broad instrumentation touches every AI path and can record prompts/tool I/O when content capture is enabled, though policy and size bounds limit exposure; behavior changes are mostly additive aside from tool dispatch always running under telemetry spans.

Overview
Adds a shared genai_telemetry crate and wires OpenTelemetry GenAI semconv (invoke_agent, chat, execute_tool) through chat, the agent loop, tool dispatch, and agent sessions so backends (e.g. Datadog LLM evals) get bounded gen_ai.* fields under OTEL_INSTRUMENTATION_GENAI_CAPTURE_MESSAGE_CONTENT.

Agent loop (crates/agent) enriches rig’s spans via GenAiContext, TracedModel, and ChatSpanHook: conversation id, tool definitions, input/output messages, usage, and finish reasons on invoke_agent/chat, with AgentLoop::with_genai_telemetry, with_conversation_id, and with_agent_name. agent_inmem turns loop telemetry off so turns aren’t double-reported; the session actor is the single source for in-process runs.

ai_toolset wraps try_tool_call with ToolCallSpan (arguments/result on execute_tool, reusing rig’s span when present). Rig tool adapters duplicate that path where they bypass the trait.

Agent sessions project live ACP frames onto invoke_agent/execute_tool in GenAiProjector, with optional SessionToolCatalog (in-mem McpToolCatalog) to attach gen_ai.tool.definitions from MCP servers. CLAUDE.md documents where spans must not be added (harness runtimes, individual tools).

Workspace dependency closures and lockfile are regenerated for the new crate.

Walkthrough

This change adds a new genai_telemetry workspace crate with shared OpenTelemetry GenAI attributes, content-bounding rules, message builders, and span helpers. It wires tool-call telemetry into ai_toolset and related toolset implementations. It adds agent-side telemetry context, traced model wrappers, and span enrichment for agent loops and one-shot completions. It adds session-side span projection and MCP tool-definition listing in agent_session and harness wiring. It also updates documentation, dependency closures, and tests across the affected crates.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to fc326

The new telemetry can expose sensitive content and produce incomplete or unusable traces. These issues should be fixed before merge.

Instrument the spawned driver with invoke_agent.

drive_stream retains agent_span and records final output and usage through it. However, the tokio::spawn future that polls rig_stream is not instrumented with that span. Model and tool child spans can therefore lose invoke_agent as their parent. Instrument the driver future with a clone of agent_span and add a parentage test.

In `@crates/agent/src/telemetry.rs`:
- Line 468: Update the DocumentSourceKind::Url handling to avoid exporting
complete URIs in MediaSource telemetry; retain only non-sensitive URI components
or use a media-presence marker, excluding userinfo, query parameters, and
fragments. Add tests covering credential-bearing URLs and verify bounded
telemetry contains no credentials or other sensitive URL data.
- Line 160: Update the telemetry lifecycle around chat_span and drive_stream so
every terminal path releases the parked span: provider-call errors, stream
cancellation, exhausted invalid-tool retries, and consumer drop. Add an RAII
cleanup guard that clears chat_span on those paths, while preserving
ChatSpanHook::on_model_turn_finished as the success-path cleanup. Add regression
coverage for provider errors and exhausted invalid-tool retries.

In `@crates/ai_toolset/src/toolset/types.rs`:
- Line 255: Update the tracing instrumentation on is_valid_tool to record the
tool_name argument value by changing the span field declaration from an empty
field to a formatted tool_name field.
- Around line 233-250: Update try_user_tool_call so ToolCallSpan::finish
receives the inner value from successful UserToolResponse::UserAction rather
than serializing the wrapper, while preserving the existing UserToolResponse in
the method’s returned API result. Adjust user_tool_calls_are_traced_too to
assert the bare inner JSON.

In `@crates/genai_telemetry/src/content.rs`:
- Line 169: Update the truncation calls in the content serialization paths to
use a UTF-8 byte-aware truncator instead of truncate_chars, ensuring the
truncation marker is included within max_attribute_bytes. Add coverage asserting
json.as_bytes().len() <= max_attribute_bytes for multi-byte input, including the
call sites around lines 169, 204, and 241.
- Line 204: Update the message and tool-definition attribute truncation paths
around truncate_chars so oversized entries are removed or replaced structurally
before serialization rather than cutting the serialized JSON text. Ensure both
paths, including the logic near the tool-definition handling, always emit a
valid JSON array while respecting limits.max_attribute_bytes.

In `@crates/genai_telemetry/src/span.rs`:
- Line 83: Update ToolCallSpan::finish so ToolCallError.description is filtered
through the content policy before setting the OpenTelemetry error status: retain
a stable summary when ContentPolicy.capture is disabled, and apply the
configured size limit when capture is enabled. Extend
content_capture_off_records_structure_only to verify the error description is
not exported.

claude and others added 5 commits September 8, 2026 23:30
Datadog LLM Observability evaluations (tool selection, goal completeness,
…) need the offered tool definitions, the conversation id, and bounded
prompt / tool / output content on the OpenTelemetry GenAI spans. rig
already emits the structural `invoke_agent` / `chat` / `execute_tool`
spans; this records what it does not, without turning on rig's unbounded
content recording.

- genai_telemetry (new): `gen_ai.*` attribute names, the content-capture
  policy (`OTEL_INSTRUMENTATION_GENAI_CAPTURE_MESSAGE_CONTENT`, on unless
  set to false) with size bounds, semconv message / tool-definition JSON
  builders, and OpenTelemetry attribute setters that bypass tracing's
  declared-field restriction and keep content out of the JSON log layer.
- ai_toolset: `ToolSet::try_tool_call` is now a provided method wrapping
  the new required `dispatch_tool_call` in `execute_tool` telemetry —
  enriching rig's span when one is open, opening one otherwise — so every
  dispatch (agent loop, user-executed tools, pipelines) records the tool
  name, arguments, result and failures. Tool arguments are no longer
  leaked as `#[instrument]` fields. Implementors renamed accordingly.
- agent: `TracedModel` records tool definitions, input messages, system
  instructions, request params and the conversation id on rig's `chat`
  span; `ChatSpanHook` adds output messages and finish reasons per turn;
  the `invoke_agent` span carries operation / agent / conversation / model
  fields plus the run's usage, prompt and final answer. New
  `AgentLoop::with_conversation_id` / `with_agent_name`.
- document_cognition_service: the chat id is the conversation id.
- Regenerated workspace dep closures for the new crate.
Every harness an agent session runs on (sandboxed OpenCode, Cursor cloud
agents, Macro's in-process agent, external runtimes) speaks ACP through the
session actor, so the actor now projects each session's frames onto the
OpenTelemetry GenAI spans an evaluation backend reads, in one place for all
of them:

- one `invoke_agent` span per prompt turn, a child of the command that
  carried the prompt: the prompt as `gen_ai.input.messages`, the streamed
  prose, reasoning and tool calls as `gen_ai.output.messages`, the stop
  reason as the finish reason, per-turn token usage derived from ACP's
  running totals, context-window usage, the harness as `gen_ai.agent.name`,
  the model from the runtime's config options, and the session id as
  `gen_ai.conversation.id`;
- one `execute_tool` span per tool call, from `tool_call` to the update
  that finishes it, with the name, arguments and result read through the
  harness conventions `agent_fold` knows (MCP envelopes unwrapped, terminal
  output and exit codes), and an error status on failure;
- `gen_ai.tool.definitions` on each turn from a new `SessionToolCatalog`
  port, implemented in `agent_inmem` over the same in-process egress MCP
  client the runtime dials with, so the definitions are the ones the agent
  saw (Macro's own tools and the owner's connected apps). Listed once per
  connection, off the actor's path, best-effort.

Content follows the `genai_telemetry` policy and size limits; only live
frames are projected, never a reconnect's catch-up over the stored log.

The in-process runtime turns its agent loop's GenAI enrichment off
(`AgentLoop::with_genai_telemetry(false)`) so its turns are reported once,
by the actor. Chat outside sessions keeps the agent-loop instrumentation.
cargo deny bans tracing-subscriber outside macro_entrypoint. The GenAI
telemetry crates use it only as a dev-dependency, to install an in-memory
OpenTelemetry pipeline their span tests assert against - the same use
macro_tower_layers is allowed for.
Content bounds:
- Attribute budgets are bytes: a new `truncate_bytes` cuts on a UTF-8
  boundary and counts its marker against the budget; `bounded_json_string`
  uses it. Leaf budgets stay in characters.
- Message lists and tool definitions stay valid JSON when over budget: an
  oversized last message is shrunk structurally (shorter leaves, then its
  oldest parts, then a note of what was dropped) and an overlong tool list
  drops definitions from the end instead of cutting the serialization.

Sensitive content:
- Media and resource URIs are recorded without userinfo, query or fragment
  (`messages::redact_uri`), where signed-URL tokens and credentials live.
- A prompt's attached resources - embedded text and blobs alike - are named
  by URI rather than copied, matching the function's contract.
- Tool error descriptions and the runtime's refusal text follow the content
  policy: bounded when capture is on, a fixed summary when it is off. Not-
  found and bad-argument errors no longer quote the arguments.

Span lifecycle:
- The parked `chat` span is released when the run's driver ends, however it
  ends (`GenAiContext::finish_run` via a drop guard), so a provider error or
  a dropped stream no longer holds a model-call span open.
- The stream driver runs inside the run's agent span, so the runtime's
  `chat` and `execute_tool` spans nest under `invoke_agent` by construction;
  the end-to-end test now asserts that parentage.
- A tool call opened outside any turn is no longer marked abandoned when a
  later turn ends; it closes on its own finish.

Also: the user-tool span records the tool's own output rather than the
`UserToolResponse` wrapper, and `is_valid_tool` records its `tool_name`.
`redact_uri` only recognized `scheme://` forms, so a `data:` URI kept its
payload and `//user:secret@host/path` its credentials. A data URI now keeps
only its media type, a protocol-relative URI loses its userinfo like any
other authority, and schemes are matched per RFC 3986 rather than by the
`://` marker.

Stale Bugbot comment from a previous run.

Comment thread crates/agent/src/model/router.rs
A provider error, the runtime giving up, or the consumer dropping the
stream left the run's span closing as if the agent had answered. The
stream driver now records a failure on the agent span for an error item
(`error.type` = streaming_error, finish reason `error`) and, through its
drop guard, for a run abandoned before its final response (`cancelled`).
A run that never starts records its error too. Successful runs record a
`stop` finish reason. The error text follows the content policy.

The runtime reports a cooperative cancellation as an error item on the
stream (`Streaming(Prompt(PromptCancelled))`), which the driver recorded
as a failed run. It now classifies the item with `AgentError::was_cancelled`
and records `cancelled` for a user stop, keeping `streaming_error` for
