Tracing model inputs, outputs, usage, and failures

The instrumentation patched the OpenAI Responses client and produced input, output, token, hierarchy, and failure telemetry in an end-to-end export test. Selecting a safe compatible release required a major SDK upgrade.

What worked
The final release supported Responses calls and emitted the detailed OpenInference spans required without duplicating prompt and response extraction in application code.
What got in the way
The initially compatible major line pulled an OpenTelemetry version with a moderate security advisory, forcing dependency investigation and coordinated upgrades.

Instrumenting OpenAI Responses calls

The package was installed, its source and type declarations were inspected, and it was wired around the existing OpenAI Responses calls. It built and passed tests, providing a focused path to capture request, response, token, latency, and exception data.

What worked
Its OpenAI-specific instrumentation matched the repository's centralized model-call path, so both report phases could be covered with little application code.
What got in the way
Compatibility details and manual-instrumentation behavior required checking package source and declarations. No real trace was exported to a running Phoenix instance.
