Instrumenting With Mlflow Tracing

Instruments Python and TypeScript code with MLflow Tracing for observability. Triggers on questions about adding tracing, instrumenting agents/LLM apps, getting started with MLflow tracing, or tracing specific frameworks (LangGraph, LangChain, OpenAI, DSPy, CrewAI, AutoGen). Examples - "How do I add tracing?", "How to instrument my agent?", "How to trace my LangChain app?", "Getting started with MLflow tracing", "Trace my TypeScript app"

MLflow Tracing Instrumentation Guide

Language-Specific Guides

Based on the user's project, load the appropriate guide:

Python projects: Read references/python.md
TypeScript/JavaScript projects: Read references/typescript.md

If unclear, check for package.json (TypeScript) or requirements.txt/pyproject.toml (Python) in the project.

What to Trace

Trace these operations (high debugging/observability value):

Operation Type	Examples	Why Trace
Root operations	Main entry points, top-level pipelines, workflow steps	End-to-end latency, input/output logging
LLM calls	Chat completions, embeddings	Token usage, latency, prompt/response inspection
Retrieval	Vector DB queries, document fetches, search	Relevance debugging, retrieval quality
Tool/function calls	API calls, database queries, web search	External dependency monitoring, error tracking
Agent decisions	Routing, planning, tool selection	Understand agent reasoning and choices
External services	HTTP APIs, file I/O, message queues	Dependency failures, timeout tracking

Skip tracing these (too granular, adds noise):

Simple data transformations (dict/list manipulation)
String formatting, parsing, validation
Configuration loading, environment setup
Logging or metric emission
Pure utility functions (math, sorting, filtering)

Rule of thumb: Trace operations that are important for debugging and identifying issues in your application.

Feedback Collection

Log user feedback on traces for evaluation, debugging, and fine-tuning. Essential for identifying quality issues in production.

See references/feedback-collection.md for:

Recording user ratings and comments with mlflow.log_feedback()
Capturing trace IDs to return to clients
LLM-as-judge automated evaluation

Reference Documentation

Production Deployment

See references/production.md for:

Environment variable configuration
Async logging for low-latency applications
Sampling configuration (MLFLOW_TRACE_SAMPLING_RATIO)
Lightweight SDK (mlflow-tracing)
Docker/Kubernetes deployment

Advanced Patterns

See references/advanced-patterns.md for:

Async function tracing
Multi-threading with context propagation
PII redaction with span processors

Distributed Tracing

See references/distributed-tracing.md for:

Propagating trace context across services
Client/server header APIs
