Load when the operator asks to verify a recent test or deployment in Honeycomb, find the most recent trace, or show the trace a test produced. Finds the traces created since the test started and summarizes the most recent one.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Honeycomb Verify Recent Trace Requires the Honeycomb connector in the Agent Space, with its read tools enabled. ## Purpose Query Honeycomb to find the traces that were created by a recent test. ## When to Use - The operator asks to "show me a trace in Honeycomb" - A test or release step needs observability verification ## Verification Output Report query results as: Queried [VIZ] where [FILTERS] by [GROUP_BY] over [TIME_RANGE] Results: [link to Honeycomb query] ## Query Patterns - **Time Range**: 1200 seconds (20 minutes) - adjustable based on when the test started ### Pattern 1: Get a particular trace What service are you testing? This determines the dataset. Do you know the name of the span you expect to see? ``` Query for: - dataset: [dataset] - filter: name = [expected span name] - time_range: [calculated time range] - calculation: COUNT - include_samples: true ``` Now take the most recent sample, and use get_trace to get the full trace. Output: Queried [CALCULATION] where [FILTERS] over [TIME_RANGE] Found [count] results Results: [link to the query] Most recent trace: [link to the trace] Root span: [root span name] Total spans: [count of spans] …

How to install
mdr add aws/tools-for-devops-agent/honeycomb-verify-recent-trace@sha256:ba5e996f8a26a589The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
