* feat: add comprehensive OpenTelemetry tracing
- Add tool execution spans for reflect operations
- Add tool call information (names, params) to spans
- Change verification scope from 'test' to 'verification'
- Add hindsight.reflect_generation span for done() processing
- Implement no-op tracer for improved code readability
- Update documentation for OTEL configuration
- Resolve merge conflicts from rebase
* fix: properly serialize Pydantic models in span recording
- Add _serialize_for_span() helper to handle Pydantic models
- Update all providers to use the helper function
- Fixes test failures with 'Object of type X is not JSON serializable'
* feat: add Grafana LGTM stack for unified local observability
Add Grafana LGTM (Loki, Grafana, Tempo, Mimir) as the recommended
local development observability stack. This provides traces, metrics,
and logs in a single Docker container instead of separate tools.
Changes:
- Add scripts/dev/grafana/ with docker-compose and README
- Add scripts/dev/start-grafana.sh startup script
- Update .env.example to reference Grafana LGTM
- Update configuration docs to emphasize Grafana LGTM as primary option
- Reorder OTLP backend list to show Grafana LGTM first
Benefits:
- Single container vs multiple separate tools (Jaeger, SigNoz, etc.)
- ~515MB image with full observability stack
- Compatible with existing OTLP configuration
- Simpler local development setup
* chore: remove SigNoz scripts and references
Remove SigNoz observability stack in favor of Grafana LGTM as the
sole recommended local development tracing solution.
Changes:
- Delete scripts/dev/signoz/ directory and all SigNoz configurations
- Delete scripts/dev/start-signoz.sh startup script
- Remove SigNoz references from .env.example
- Remove SigNoz from OTLP backends list in configuration docs
Grafana LGTM provides the same capabilities (traces, metrics, logs)
in a simpler single-container setup.
* feat: add consolidation span hierarchy for tracing
Add parent-child span structure for consolidation operations:
- hindsight.consolidation: Parent span for each memory being processed
- hindsight.consolidation_recall: Child span for finding related observations
- LLM call span: Automatically created by LLM provider (scope="consolidation")
This enables detailed timing breakdown in Grafana Tempo:
- Total consolidation time per memory
- Time spent in recall
- Time spent in LLM call
- Time spent executing actions (create/update)
All consolidation tests pass (31/31).
* feat: add Prometheus metrics and GenAI dashboard to Grafana stack
Add comprehensive metrics and dashboarding to the Grafana LGTM stack:
Metrics Collection:
- Configure Prometheus to scrape Hindsight API /metrics endpoint
- Scrape interval: 10 seconds
- Targets hindsight-api on host.docker.internal:8888
GenAI Dashboard:
- Pre-configured dashboard with 6 panels:
- LLM call rate (by provider/model)
- LLM call duration (p50/p95 by scope)
- Token usage - input tokens/sec by scope
- Token usage - output tokens/sec by scope
- Operations rate (retain/recall/reflect/consolidation)
- Operation duration p95 by operation type
Configuration:
- Mount prometheus.yml for metrics scraping
- Mount dashboards directory for auto-provisioning
- Add host.docker.internal mapping for container->host access
- Dashboard provisioning with auto-reload every 10s
Documentation:
- Updated README with metrics viewing instructions
- Added PromQL query examples
- Documented dashboard access and navigation
This provides full observability: traces (Tempo) + metrics (Prometheus/Mimir) + dashboards (Grafana)
* refactor: merge Grafana setup into existing monitoring stack
Consolidate the separate scripts/dev/grafana/ setup into the existing
scripts/dev/monitoring/ stack, using Grafana LGTM (Loki, Grafana, Tempo, Mimir).
Changes:
- Remove separate scripts/dev/grafana/ directory and start-grafana.sh
- Rewrite scripts/dev/monitoring/start.sh to use Docker + Grafana LGTM
(was: download native Prometheus/Grafana binaries)
- Add docker-compose.yaml for Grafana LGTM container
- Add prometheus.yml for scraping Hindsight API metrics
- Mount existing dashboards from monitoring/grafana/dashboards/
- Add comprehensive README.md
Benefits:
- Single unified monitoring command: ./scripts/dev/start-monitoring.sh
- Uses existing dashboard files (hindsight-operations, hindsight-llm, hindsight-api-service)
- Simpler setup: Docker-based vs downloading/running native binaries
- Full observability: traces + metrics + logs + dashboards in one container
- Standard ports: Grafana on 3000, OTLP on 4317/4318
Architecture:
- Grafana LGTM container (~515MB) provides all components
- Dashboards auto-provisioned from monitoring/grafana/dashboards/
- Prometheus scrapes host.docker.internal:8888/metrics
- Shared hindsight-network for future service-to-service tracing
* fix: run monitoring stack in foreground for easy Ctrl+C stop
Change docker-compose from detached (-d) to foreground mode.
Users can now stop the stack with Ctrl+C instead of needing
to run docker-compose down separately.
* fix: remove invalid home dashboard path and obsolete version field
- Remove GF_DASHBOARDS_DEFAULT_HOME_DASHBOARD_PATH environment variable
(was pointing to wrong path causing 'Failed to load home dashboard' error)
- Remove obsolete 'version' field from docker-compose.yaml
(docker-compose v2+ doesn't require version field)
* fix: load Hindsight dashboards in Grafana LGTM
Mount Hindsight dashboard JSON files and custom provisioning config
to make dashboards visible in Grafana.
Changes:
- Mount hindsight-operations.json, hindsight-llm.json, hindsight-api-service.json to /otel-lgtm/
- Create grafana-dashboards.yaml with all dashboard providers (default + Hindsight)
- Mount custom provisioning config to override LGTM default
All 3 Hindsight dashboards now appear in Grafana UI with metrics
from Prometheus scraping the Hindsight API /metrics endpoint.
* fix: configure Prometheus to scrape Hindsight API metrics
Update prometheus.yml to include both OTLP receiver config (from LGTM)
and scrape_configs for pulling metrics from Hindsight API.
Changes:
- Mount prometheus.yml to /otel-lgtm/prometheus.yaml (where LGTM reads it)
- Add scrape_configs section to pull from host.docker.internal:8888/metrics
- Keep OTLP receiver configuration for trace metrics
- Set scrape_interval to 5s
Verified: Prometheus now successfully scrapes hindsight_llm_calls_total
and other Hindsight metrics. Dashboards now show live data!
* feat: add comprehensive tracing for recall and improve reflect/mental_model_refresh spans
- Add recall operation tracing with parent-child span hierarchy
- Parent: hindsight.recall with attributes (bank_id, query, fact_types, etc.)
- Children: recall_embedding, recall_retrieval, recall_fusion, recall_rerank
- Fixed context propagation using start_as_current_span()
- Improve reflect tracing spans
- Remove reflect_generation spans, use reflect instead
- Change done() tool processing to hindsight.reflect_tool_call
- Fix mental_model_refresh span nesting
- Add _skip_span parameter to reflect_async to avoid duplicate hindsight.reflect spans
- Mental model refresh now has clean span hierarchy without nested reflect parent
- Add comprehensive tracing verification tests
- Test span hierarchy and attributes for all operations
- Verify parent-child relationships
- 5 passing tests covering recall, reflect, consolidation, and mental_model_refresh
* refactor: remove redundant is_tracing_enabled() checks
- Remove all is_tracing_enabled() conditional checks before tracing calls
- NoOpTracer/NoOpSpan handle disabled tracing automatically
- Simplify code by always calling tracer methods directly
- Fix NoOpTracer.start_as_current_span() to yield NoOpSpan instead of None
Changes:
- memory_engine.py: Remove 5 is_tracing_enabled checks in recall spans
- agent.py: Remove 2 is_tracing_enabled checks in reflect tool spans
- tracing.py: Fix NoOpTracer context manager to yield proper NoOpSpan
This eliminates ~50 lines of redundant conditional code while maintaining
identical behavior.
* docs: simplify distributed tracing section in monitoring.md
- Make tracing documentation more concise
- Focus on span hierarchy and attributes
- Remove verbose troubleshooting and performance sections
- Keep configuration.md for env vars only
