Summary

  • Two-tier telemetry init: authenticated users send with Bearer token via Control.account(), anonymous users send via ALTIMATE_TELEMETRY_URL env var, no config = disabled
  • Slash command tracking: new command event type captures /command, /skill, and MCP command invocations with name, source, and message ID
  • Conditional auth: Bearer header only included for authenticated sessions, 401 retry only for authenticated

Commits

  1. feat: add observability telemetry to CLI — initial buffered telemetry client with session, generation, tool_call, bridge_call, error events
  2. feat: two-tier telemetry (auth + anonymous) and slash command tracking — anonymous support + command event type

Test plan

  • Authenticated: altimate-code auth login → run /init → verify Bearer token in request, events in Langfuse
  • Anonymous: set ALTIMATE_TELEMETRY_URL → run session → verify no Bearer header, events still sent
  • No config: no account + no env var → verify telemetry disabled, zero HTTP calls
  • Command tracking: run /init → verify command event with command_name: "init" and command_source: "command"
  • TypeScript: npx tsc --noEmit passes with zero new errors

…tracking

- Buffered fire-and-forget telemetry client flushing every 5s to
  `POST /api/observability/ingest`
- Two-tier init: authenticated users via `Control.account()` with Bearer
  token, anonymous users via `ALTIMATE_TELEMETRY_URL` env var
- Track 7 event types: `session_start`, `session_end`, `generation`,
  `tool_call`, `bridge_call`, `error`, `command`
- Instrument `processor.ts` with generation, tool call, and error tracking
- Instrument `prompt.ts` with session lifecycle and slash command tracking
- Instrument `bridge/client.ts` with bridge call duration tracking
- Conditional Bearer header and 401 retry only for authenticated sessions
- Ring buffer (200 max), 10s timeout, `unref()` timer, silent failure

Bug: The telemetry module uses shared global state, causing a race condition between concurrent sessions that leads to corrupted or lost telemetry data.
Severity: CRITICAL

Suggested Fix

Refactor the telemetry module to avoid using shared, module-level state. The telemetry state, including sessionId, projectId, and the enabled flag, should be scoped per-session. This could be achieved by passing a session-specific telemetry context object through the call stack or by using a context management system that supports asynchronous operations.

Location: packages/altimate-code/src/telemetry/index.ts#L98-L107

Potential issue: The telemetry module uses shared, module-level state variables
(`enabled`, `sessionId`, `projectId`, etc.) across all concurrent sessions within a
single process. When multiple sessions run in parallel, a race condition occurs. One
session's call to `Telemetry.setContext` can overwrite the context of another, leading
to misattributed telemetry events. Furthermore, when one session completes and calls
`Telemetry.shutdown`, it disables telemetry globally by setting `enabled = false`,
causing all other active sessions to lose their telemetry data.
