docs(observe): Traces, Spans, Quickstart pages + Release notes nav#698
Merged
Conversation
Add the revamped Observe concept pages (Traces, Spans), the new Quickstart, and a lightened Get started overview, with all internal links repointed to dev's current IA so nothing 404s. Supporting fixes so the pages render correctly: - Register the Mermaid MDX component (vite-docs-transform COMPONENT_MAP) - Move the Steps step-chain CSS and the Mermaid SVG centering into global.css so they survive client-side (FastNav) navigation instead of being dropped with page-scoped <style> tags - Stop the global copy-button from injecting into Mermaid diagrams (it broke the parser on client-side nav) Nav: repoint the Observe Traces/Spans/Quickstart entries to the new pages and add a Release notes section under Get Started.
The Quickstart 'Confirm the trace' step references /images/docs/observe/llm-tracing-overview.webp, which was absent from the repo source (only present as a stale dist/ build artifact). Restore it so the image renders.

What
Ships the four completed Observe pages to
dev, scoped to only the relevant changes (no nav restructure):Why these aren't a clean cherry-pick
The pages were authored for the new IA (a
traceaitab,observe/concepts,observe/reference,observe/troubleshooting) that isn't ondevyet. To avoid shipping dead links, every internal link was repointed to dev's current paths:observe/concepts/oteltracing/concepts/otelobserve/concepts/traceaitracing/concepts/traceaiobserve/concepts/sessions-and-usersobserve/features/sessiontraceai/manual-instrumentation/set-up-tracingobserve/features/manual-tracing/set-up-tracingtraceai/manual-instrumentation/create-tool-spansobserve/features/manual-tracing/create-tool-spanstraceai/autotracing/autoThree links with no dev equivalent were dropped:
observability-model,reference/span-types,troubleshooting/no-traces-appearing. All remaining internal links resolve on dev.Supporting fixes (needed for the pages to render)
