Langfuse
This skill uses [langfuse/skills, langfuse and migrate-to-langfuse], checked against Langfuse's official documentation and current public API definitions. Use it for a selected Langfuse integration. Generic evaluation methodology stays in agent-evals, and OpenTelemetry instrumentation stays in observability.
Apply only the routes and checks for the selected job. Read a linked skill's named file from its installed folder when available, or from the linked source. Report an unavailable required reference instead of inventing it. [skill-authoring, DISTRIBUTION.md#composing-skills]

TRACING.md |
| Migrate prompt callers, compile text or chat prompts, deploy labels and preserve trace linkage |

The rules
- Confirm the host, project and installed versions first. Cloud regions and self-hosted deployments are separate destinations. Read the deployment's compatibility guidance before choosing an SDK or endpoint; current upstream support does not prove the installed server supports it. [https://langfuse.com/faq/all/upgrade-to-langfuse-v4]
- Discover the actual supported operation before using it. Prefer the current official API or the connected tool's declared schema over a remembered wrapper spelling. Current CLI documentation recommends
npx @langfuse/cli; the source used npx langfuse-cli. An explicit host prevents destination ambiguity, although the CLI documents an EU default. [https://langfuse.com/docs/api-and-data-platform/features/cli]
- Keep credentials in the supported environment configuration, out of prompts, reports and exported examples. Confirm the selected project before a write. [langfuse/skills, langfuse, references/cli.md]
- Inspect bounded evidence. Observation-first reads use time bounds, cursor pagination and requested field groups. An unrequested field is unavailable evidence, not a measured null; one trace can contain many matching observations. [https://langfuse.com/faq/all/deprecated-api-migration]
- Measure the user's task before choosing a metric or changing a prompt. Use the existing evaluation contract; Langfuse is the storage and operation layer, not evidence that a metric measures correctness. [langfuse/skills, langfuse, references/setting-up-evals.md]
- Retain consent and content controls at capture time. Follow the existing telemetry privacy rule and inspect what each instrumentor actually emits. [langfuse/skills, langfuse, references/instrumentation.md]
Prove it
The chosen host and project are explicit; SDK/server compatibility and connected operation schemas were checked; observations arrive with the intended hierarchy and permitted content; prompt and evaluator changes carry versions; and migration reports distinguish transferred records, recreated assets, reruns and unknowns. No paid run, account connection or recurring process is implied by this skill.
