instrument-distributed-tracing skillA

instrument-distributed-tracing is agent-read markdown (skill) from pjt222/agent-almanac: Instrument applications with OpenTelemetry for distributed tracing: auto and manual instrumentation, context propagation, sampling strategies, integration with Jaeger or Tempo. Use when debugging latency in distributed systems, understanding request flow across microservices, correlating traces with logs and metrics for root cause, measuring end-to-end latency, or migrating from legacy tracing systems to OpenTelemetry..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add pjt222/agent-almanac/instrument-distributed-tracing@v1.0
Exact content
mdr add pjt222/agent-almanac/instrument-distributed-tracing@sha256:897ab13f3a78714f

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
