Operate a Traceway observability instance through the traceway CLI: log in, query exceptions, logs, endpoints, and metrics, and debug production issues down to root cause. Use when the user invokes /traceway with a subcommand, e.g. "/traceway login", "/traceway debug issue <hash|url|title>", "/traceway what''s broken in prod", or whenever they want to investigate errors, crashes, slowness, or logs from an app monitored by Traceway.

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.

# Traceway

Drive a Traceway instance from the terminal with the `traceway` CLI. The first word of the argument decides the flow:

| Invocation | Flow |
|---|---|
| `/traceway login` | **Login**: install the CLI if missing, authenticate, select a project |
| `/traceway debug <issue ref or bug description>` | **Debug**: resolve the issue and investigate to root cause |
| `/traceway perf <endpoint or symptom>` | **Performance**: diagnose latency/slowness to root cause against a checklist of common bottlenecks |
| `/traceway <anything else>` | **Query**: answer the observability question with CLI reads |
| `/traceway` (no argument) | Ask what they want: log in, debug an issue, or run a query |

> The CLI is under active development. If a flag documented here does not appear in `traceway <command> --help`, trust the binary.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tracewayapp/traceway/traceway@sha256:24015770aa489397

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.efcddf0, 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.
