eBPF-Based Observability for Wasm Workloads
Why WebAssembly workloads are invisible to classic APM, what eBPF can and cannot see at the syscall boundary, how to trace host calls, and how to correlate kernel events with OpenTelemetry.
Trace Spans for Tool Calls: Instrumenting Function Execution
Instrument agent tool calls with OpenTelemetry spans: span structure, trace and span IDs, parent relationships, attributes versus events, status codes, wrapping sync and async tools, and the schema that makes tool spans queryable instead of just present.
Trace Sampling in High-Volume Agent Systems
Head-based, tail-based, and parent-based sampling with OpenTelemetry — how to keep 1% of traces that still tell the whole story.
Visualizing Agent Trajectories: Debugging Loops and Dead Ends
Agent logs lie by omission. Learn to render trajectories as graphs, spot infinite loops and dead ends, and turn run visualization into a debugging practice.
Tracing MCP Tool Calls with OpenTelemetry
Instrument Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool executions and agent workflows with OpenTelemetry distributed tracing for end-to-end observability.
Agent Evaluation with OpenTelemetry GenAI Semantic Conventions
Evaluate AI agent performance using OpenTelemetry and GenAI semantic conventions. Build observability pipelines that track tool calls, latency, cost, and quality.
Agent Tracing and Observability: Debugging Every Decision
Master built-in tracing in the OpenAI Agents SDK to debug, visualize, and monitor agent workflows. Learn to create traces, spans, and custom processors for production observability.
Observability for Agents: Tracing Tool Calls and Reasoning
An agent is a loop, not a single API call. Instrument it with OpenTelemetry AGENT/LLM/TOOL spans and a shared trace_id so you can attribute bad reasoning, slow dependencies, and tool failures.
