Backport: docs(observability): add Respan provider page#15205
Merged
Conversation
This PR adds (and rebrands) the **Respan** observability provider page for the AI SDK. It supersedes the prior \"Keywords AI\" version of this PR — Keywords AI rebranded to Respan earlier this year. ## What changed since the original The original draft of this PR referenced an npm package (\`@keywords-ai/sdk\`) and an install pattern that didn't match what's actually shipped. This rewrite uses the real, published Respan packages: - \`@respan/respan\` - \`@respan/instrumentation-vercel\` Tone has also been neutralized to match recently-merged sibling pages (Maxim, MLflow, Langfuse, Confident AI) — factual setup steps, no marketing copy, no embedded screenshots. ## Files - **Add** \`content/providers/05-observability/respan.mdx\` — provider page covering tracing setup (Next.js + Serverless), the OpenTelemetry-based AI SDK instrumentation, and optional gateway routing - **Update** \`content/providers/05-observability/index.mdx\` — remove the old \"Keywords AI\" entry, insert \"Respan\" alphabetically - **Delete** the previous \`keywordsai.mdx\` (rebranded) ## Notes for reviewers - The integration uses the AI SDK's \`experimental_telemetry\` hook and the standard \`instrumentation.ts\` register pattern - The packages are public on npm and stable - Live integration docs on Respan's side: https://www.respan.ai/docs/integrations/vercel-ai-sdk - Example projects: https://github.com/respanai/respan-example-projects/tree/main/typescript/tracing/vercel-ai-sdk Happy to make any structural adjustments — let me know. --------- Co-authored-by: vercel[bot] <35613825+vercel[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
