zeekay bc4ddf332b chore: rebase the tree onto upstream master fa1a9a60
Mechanically re-derived: bin/debrand runs over a fresh import of
posthog/posthog@fa1a9a60d4 (2026-08-06).
The pipeline (.hanzo/workflows), the Dockerfiles and bin/docker*
entrypoints, compose files, LLM.md and the squashed initial migration
are restored from the shipped tree, same as the previous import.

The prune's import-closure guard kept 21 products the new core now
imports; dropping them is a refactor now, recorded rather than forced.

Configure OpenTelemetry to export spans to Insights via the `InsightsSpanProcessor`. The processor
only forwards AI-related spans — spans whose name or attribute keys start with `gen_ai.`,
`llm.`, `ai.`, or `traceloop.` — and drops everything else. Insights converts `gen_ai.*` spans
into `$ai_generation` events automatically.

With the processor and instrumentation wired up, any LLM call made through the instrumented SDK

<Markdown>
Insights translates standard OpenTelemetry GenAI semantic convention attributes into the same
`$ai_*` event properties our native SDK wrappers emit, so traces look the same in Insights
whether they arrive through OpenTelemetry or a native wrapper. The most common mappings:
</Markdown>
<Markdown>
{dedent`
| OpenTelemetry attribute | Insights event property |
| --- | --- |
| \`gen_ai.response.model\` (or \`gen_ai.request.model\`) | \`$ai_model\` |
| \`gen_ai.provider.name\` (or \`gen_ai.system\`) | \`$ai_provider\` |
| \`gen_ai.input.messages\` | \`$ai_input\` |
| \`gen_ai.output.messages\` | \`$ai_output_choices\` |
| \`gen_ai.usage.input_tokens\` (or \`gen_ai.usage.prompt_tokens\`) | \`$ai_input_tokens\` |
| \`gen_ai.usage.output_tokens\` (or \`gen_ai.usage.completion_tokens\`) | \`$ai_output_tokens\` |
| \`server.address\` | \`$ai_base_url\` |
| \`telemetry.sdk.name\` / \`telemetry.sdk.version\` | \`$ai_lib\` / \`$ai_lib_version\` |
| Span start/end timestamps | \`$ai_latency\` (computed in seconds) |
| Span name | \`$ai_span_name\` |
`}
</Markdown>
<Markdown>Additional behavior worth knowing:</Markdown>
<Markdown>
{dedent`
- **Custom attributes pass through.** Any Resource or span attribute that isn't part of the known mapping is forwarded onto the event as-is, so you can add dimensions like \`conversation_id\` or \`tenant_id\` and filter on them in Insights.
- **Trace and span IDs are preserved** as \`$ai_trace_id\`, \`$ai_span_id\`, and \`$ai_parent_id\`, so multi-step traces reconstruct correctly.
- **Events are classified by operation.** \`gen_ai.operation.name=chat\` becomes an \`$ai_generation\` event; \`embeddings\` becomes \`$ai_embedding\`. Spans without a recognized operation become \`$ai_span\` (or \`$ai_trace\` if they're the root of a trace).
- **Vercel AI SDK, Pydantic AI, and Traceloop/OpenLLMetry** emit their own namespaces (\`ai.*\`, \`pydantic_ai.*\`, \`traceloop.*\`) and Insights normalizes those to the same \`$ai_*\` properties.
- **Noisy resource attributes are dropped.** OpenTelemetry auto-detected attributes under \`host.*\`, \`process.*\`, \`os.*\`, and \`telemetry.*\` (except \`telemetry.sdk.name\` / \`telemetry.sdk.version\`) don't pollute event properties.

**Alternative instrumentation libraries.** Any library that emits standard \`gen_ai.*\` spans (or \`ai.*\` / \`traceloop.*\` / \`pydantic_ai.*\`) works with the setup above. Swap \`@opentelemetry/instrumentation-openai\` / \`opentelemetry-instrumentation-openai-v2\` for one of these to broaden provider coverage:
- [OpenLIT](https://github.com/openlit/openlit) — single instrumentation that covers many providers, vector DBs, and frameworks.
- [OpenLLMetry](https://github.com/traceloop/openllmetry) (Traceloop) — broad provider and framework support in Python and JavaScript.
- [OpenInference](https://github.com/Arize-ai/openinference) (Arize) — provider- and framework-specific instrumentations for Python and JavaScript.
- [MLflow tracing](https://mlflow.org/docs/latest/llms/tracing/index.html) — if you already run MLflow.

**Direct OTLP export.** If you run an OpenTelemetry Collector, or want to export from a language that isn't Python or Node.js, point any OTLP/HTTP exporter directly at Insights's AI ingestion endpoint. Insights accepts OTLP over HTTP in both \`application/x-protobuf\` and \`application/json\`, authenticated with a \`Bearer\` token. The endpoint is signal-specific (traces only), so use the \`OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_*\` variants rather than the general \`OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_*\` ones (the SDK appends \`/v1/traces\` to the latter and would 404).

**Limits and troubleshooting.**
- **Only AI spans are ingested.** Spans whose name and attribute keys don't start with \`gen_ai.\`, \`llm.\`, \`ai.\`, or \`traceloop.\` are dropped server-side, so it's safe to send a mixed trace stream.
- **HTTP only, no gRPC.** The endpoint speaks OTLP over HTTP in either \`application/x-protobuf\` or \`application/json\`. If your collector or SDK is configured for gRPC, switch to HTTP.
- **Request body is capped at 4 MB.** Large or unbounded traces (for example, long chat histories with base64-encoded images) can exceed this. Use a collector with the \`batch\` processor to keep individual exports small.
- **Missing traces?** Make sure you're pointing at the traces-specific OTLP variable (\`OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT\` / \`traces_endpoint\`) rather than the general one, and that your project token is set correctly in the \`Authorization: Bearer\` header.
