OpenTelemetry maintains a dedicated repository for generative-AI telemetry conventions, including spans, metrics and events for model clients, MCP and provider-specific behavior. The conventions extend the core OpenTelemetry vocabulary. The repository is the current destination linked from the former GenAI documentation page.

External source ↗Prometheus instrumentation guidance distinguishes online services, offline processing and batch jobs. For online services it highlights request volume, errors, latency and in-progress work. These categories help organize measurements for an agent service without treating every individual request as a human-facing alert.

External source ↗Temporal explains how workflow executions recover progress using persisted event history and replay. Its documentation distinguishes the workflow definition from a running execution and describes states such as completed, failed and cancelled. These concepts are relevant to agents coordinating work across multiple external calls.

External source ↗Kubernetes separates probes for whether a container should restart, whether it can receive service traffic and whether startup has completed. The documentation shows how startup probes protect slow initialization and how readiness can temporarily remove an unready workload from service traffic.

External source ↗The Dockerfile HEALTHCHECK instruction runs a command to inspect application health inside a container. Docker tracks a health status separately from whether the container process is running. The reference explains intervals, timeouts and failure handling for defining that check.
