Exposes OpenTelemetry trace data (spans, metrics, logs) through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) interface, allowing Claude and other MCP-compatible clients to query and analyze observability data without direct instrumentation. Implements MCP resource and tool handlers that translate OpenTelemetry SDK exports into structured JSON payloads compatible with LLM consumption, bridging observability backends (Jaeger, Datadog, etc.) with AI-driven analysis workflows.
Unique: First MCP server to expose OpenTelemetry signals as queryable resources, enabling Claude to directly analyze trace data without intermediate APIs or custom exporters. Uses MCP's resource discovery pattern to surface trace hierarchies and metric schemas dynamically.
vs alternatives: Eliminates the need for custom REST APIs or webhook handlers to feed observability data to LLMs; MCP's bidirectional protocol allows Claude to request specific traces rather than receiving bulk exports.
Automatically enriches Claude's conversation context with relevant trace spans and metrics based on user queries about system behavior. Implements semantic matching between natural language questions (e.g., 'why is checkout slow?') and OpenTelemetry span attributes, then injects matched trace data into the prompt context. Uses MCP's context attachment mechanism to maintain trace lineage across multi-turn conversations.
Unique: Uses MCP's resource attachment pattern combined with semantic span matching to automatically surface relevant traces without explicit user queries for trace IDs. Maintains trace context across conversation turns via MCP's stateful resource model.
vs alternatives: More intelligent than static trace export; Claude can ask follow-up questions and receive additional traces without manual context switching, unlike traditional observability dashboards.
Orchestrates multi-step root cause analysis by having Claude reason over traces, metrics, and logs to identify the underlying cause of issues. Implements a reasoning loop where Claude formulates hypotheses, requests specific traces or metrics to test them, and iteratively narrows down the root cause. Uses MCP's tool invocation pattern to enable Claude to request additional data as needed during analysis, without requiring upfront context injection.
Unique: Enables Claude to conduct iterative root cause analysis by requesting specific traces and metrics based on reasoning, rather than requiring all data upfront. Uses MCP's tool invocation to support multi-step debugging workflows.
vs alternatives: More efficient than static trace export; Claude can ask targeted questions and receive only relevant data, unlike bulk trace analysis that may overwhelm context limits.
Abstracts multiple OpenTelemetry exporters and trace backends (Jaeger, Datadog, Grafana Tempo, etc.) behind a unified MCP interface, normalizing span and metric schemas across different backend formats. Implements adapter pattern with backend-specific translators that convert proprietary trace formats into canonical OpenTelemetry JSON representation, allowing Claude to query traces from heterogeneous sources without backend-specific knowledge.
Unique: Implements adapter pattern at MCP layer to normalize heterogeneous trace backends into OpenTelemetry canonical format, enabling single-query access to multi-vendor observability without backend-specific client libraries.
vs alternatives: Unlike vendor-specific MCP servers, this provides backend-agnostic trace access; unlike manual API integration, adapters handle schema translation automatically.
Exposes OpenTelemetry sampler configuration and span filtering rules as MCP tools, allowing Claude to dynamically adjust trace collection behavior based on analysis results. Implements MCP tool handlers that map to OpenTelemetry's Sampler interface, enabling Claude to request increased sampling for specific services or span attributes when investigating issues, without requiring application restarts.
Unique: Exposes OpenTelemetry Sampler interface as MCP tools, enabling Claude to dynamically adjust trace collection without application code changes. Uses MCP's tool invocation pattern to map high-level sampling requests to low-level SDK configuration.
vs alternatives: More flexible than static sampling rules; allows Claude to respond to analysis findings by adjusting observability in real-time, unlike traditional APM tools that require manual configuration changes.
Provides MCP tools for querying OpenTelemetry metrics (counters, histograms, gauges) with time-range and aggregation support, translating natural language metric queries from Claude into PromQL-like expressions. Implements metric backend abstraction that supports Prometheus, Grafana, and OpenTelemetry Metrics API, with built-in aggregation functions (sum, avg, percentile, rate) and time-series downsampling for efficient context injection.
Unique: Translates natural language metric queries into backend-agnostic expressions with automatic aggregation and downsampling, allowing Claude to analyze metrics without PromQL knowledge. Integrates metric queries with trace context for correlated analysis.
vs alternatives: More accessible than direct PromQL; Claude can ask 'what was the p99 latency during the outage?' and get results without manual query construction, unlike traditional dashboards.
Implements trace-to-log correlation by matching trace IDs and span IDs in log records with OpenTelemetry trace data, exposing correlated logs as MCP resources. Uses log backend APIs (ELK, Loki, Datadog) to retrieve logs with trace context, then enriches them with span metadata for unified analysis. Enables Claude to request logs for a specific trace and receive them pre-correlated without manual trace ID copying.
Unique: Automatically correlates logs with traces via trace ID matching, exposing correlated results as MCP resources that Claude can query without manual log-trace linking. Supports multiple log backends through adapter pattern.
vs alternatives: More integrated than separate log and trace queries; Claude gets unified context automatically, unlike traditional observability tools requiring manual correlation.
Introspects OpenTelemetry span attributes across collected traces to build a dynamic schema of available attributes, span types, and semantic conventions. Exposes this schema as MCP resources, allowing Claude to discover what span attributes are available and validate queries against the schema before execution. Implements schema caching with periodic updates to track schema evolution as new span types are introduced.
Unique: Dynamically discovers span attribute schemas from collected traces rather than requiring manual schema definition, enabling Claude to adapt to evolving instrumentation without configuration updates.
vs alternatives: More flexible than static schema files; automatically reflects actual span structure in production, unlike documentation-based approaches that can drift from reality.
