fpf-skilltelemetry-log-work-span
Generates an FPF-compliant OpenTelemetry Span mapped to U.Work.
When & Why to Use This Skill
This Claude skill automates the generation of FPF-compliant OpenTelemetry Spans mapped to the U.Work pattern. It ensures 'Lawful Telemetry' by strictly adhering to the 4D Anchor schema—capturing Spec, Performer, Context, and System attributes—to provide standardized, high-fidelity observability for AI agent execution units and performance tracking.
Use Cases
- Standardizing Agent Logs: Automatically generate structured OpenTelemetry spans for every task an agent performs to ensure consistent monitoring across distributed systems.
- Compliance and Auditing: Implement 'Lawful Telemetry' by capturing mandatory 4D anchors, providing a clear audit trail of which agent performed what action in which context.
- Performance Analytics: Track execution outcomes (Success, Failure, Aborted) and rubric scores to analyze agent efficiency and improve workflow reliability.
- Debugging Complex Workflows: Use detailed span attributes to trace errors back to specific methods, versions, or runtime environments in agentic architectures.

Context
This skill implements FPF Pattern A.15.1 (U.Work) by mapping execution units to OpenTelemetry Spans. It ensures "Lawful Telemetry" (G.12) by strictly adhering to the 4D Anchor schema.
Instructions
You must generate a valid U.Work record formatted as an OpenTelemetry Span structure.
1. Mandatory 4D Anchors
You must include the following attributes in the span. IF a value is missing, you must either derive it or explicitly label it as UNKNOWN (do not omit).
| FPF Anchor | OTel Attribute | Value Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Spec | fpf.spec_ref |
URI of the Method being executed (e.g., method:PlanTask@v1). |
| Performer | fpf.performer_ref |
URI of the Role/Agent (e.g., role:Assistant@run-1). |
| Context | fpf.context_ref |
URI of the Bounded Context (e.g., ctx:AgentFS-Experiment-C1). |
| System | fpf.system_ref |
Identity of the runtime system (e.g., sys:MacBookPro-M3). |
| Pins | fpf.edition_pins |
JSON string of version pins. |
2. Metric Telemetry (G.11)
If the work involves derived metrics, include them as attributes:
fpf.outcome.class: One ofSuccess,Failure,Aborted.fpf.outcome.rubric_score: (Optional) Integer 1-5.
3. Output Format
Return the JSON representation of the Span, including name, start_time, end_time, and attributes.
