Bluebox Otel Instrumentation

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
Use when asked to instrument a service or repository with OpenTelemetry so its telemetry flows to Bluebox, or when you find a `.env.otel.bluebox-template` file in the repo. Guides service targeting, safe OTel config, secret handling, logging preservation, and verification with `bluebox ask`. Do NOT use for OpenTelemetry setups that target a non-Bluebox backend (e.g. exporting to Jaeger, Datadog, or a self-hosted collector) — that is generic OTel work, not this skill. Triggers: "add OpenTelemetry", "instrument this service", "instrument this repo", "set up tracing", "OTel setup", "wire up telemetry for Bluebox", ".env.otel.bluebox-template".
