Eval Otel

Eval OTel Skill

Use This Skill For

• Proving we can record and retrieve prompt input/output during eval runs.
• Debugging missing trace/session/run correlation in rows.jsonl.
• Running a repeatable telemetry validation loop across codex, claude, and louie.

Success Criteria (Do Not Skip)

• For each runtime under test:
  • rows.jsonl has non-empty case_prompt.
  • rows.jsonl has non-empty response_text for successful runs.
  • rows.jsonl includes trace_id and raw_ref.
  • raw_ref file exists and is readable.
• OTel/log retrieval is demonstrated for the same run IDs/trace IDs when available.
• Any runtime not proven is explicitly marked as not proven (with error evidence).

Preconditions

• OTel stack is up:
  • ./bin/otel/status
• Eval loop is available:
  • ./bin/agent.sh
• Harness CLIs are installed and authenticated as needed (codex, claude).
• Louie endpoint is reachable for Louie proof:
  • LOUIE_URL or --louie-url
  • auth environment as required by local setup

Minimal Proof Loop

1) Run evals with telemetry enabled

./bin/agent.sh \
  --codex --claude --louie \
  --journeys runtime_smoke \
  --skills-mode off \
  --otel \
  --failfast \
  --out /tmp/agent_eval_otel_smoke

2) Verify artifact-level prompt in/out capture

sed -n '1,40p' /tmp/agent_eval_otel_smoke/rows.jsonl
ls -la /tmp/agent_eval_otel_smoke/raw

Check:

• case_prompt is present (input capture).
• response_text is present for successful rows (output capture).
• raw_ref points to a real log file.

3) Verify OTel/log retrieval

Use a trace_id from rows.jsonl:

./bin/otel/inspect <trace_id> --logs --full

If trace lookup fails, record that explicitly and do not claim full OTel proof.

Runtime-Specific Notes

Codex

• Harness parses codex exec --json.
• Expect runtime_ids.thread_id and usage fields on success.
• Can route through proxy with OPENAI_BASE_URL when needed.

Claude

• Harness parses claude --verbose -p --output-format stream-json.
• Expect runtime_ids.session_id and usage fields on success.

Louie

• Harness sends traceparent and attempts single-shot then /api/chat/.
• If requests time out, do not claim prompt output proof for Louie.
• Keep timeout evidence in rows.jsonl and raw logs.

Reporting Template

• codex: proven / not proven
• claude: proven / not proven
• louie: proven / not proven
• artifact-level prompt in/out: proven / partial
• otel-level retrieval: proven / partial
• blockers: concise list with concrete error messages

Guardrails

• Do not hardcode credentials in tracked files.
• Do not claim success based on assumptions or docs alone.
• Distinguish:
  • artifact capture proof (rows.jsonl + raw logs)
  • OTel backend retrieval proof (bin/otel/inspect)
