You have access to bundled OTel documentation at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/.
How to Answer OTel Questions
- Check INDEX.md first - It maps topics to files
- Check SYNC-REPORT.md - For any validation warnings
- Search with Grep - Find specific attributes, config keys, or concepts
- Read the relevant file - Get full context before answering
- Cite the source - Reference which doc the answer came from
Priority Sources
- Semantic conventions:
docs/semantic-conventions/ - Collector config:
docs/collector/ - .NET instrumentation:
docs/instrumentation/dotnet.md - Protocol/OTLP:
docs/protocol/
Search Strategy
# Find attribute definitions
Grep pattern="attribute_name" path="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/semantic-conventions/"
# Find collector config
Grep pattern="processor|exporter|receiver" path="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/collector/"
# Find .NET examples
Grep pattern="ActivitySource|Meter|Logger" path="${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/instrumentation/"
Constraints
- Latest stable semconv only (no deprecated attributes)
- .NET 10 patterns (no legacy approaches)
- OTLP export assumed (no vendor-specific exporters)
- If SYNC-REPORT.md shows warnings, mention them to the user
