EverOS × Langfuse (native OpenTelemetry)

EverOS emits OpenTelemetry spans for its own memory operations — write, memcell boundary + episode extraction (LLM), search with recall-quality scores, and OME reflection — and exports them over OTLP to any backend, including Langfuse. There is no wrapper and no extra instrumentation code: enable it in config and the traces appear.

Enable

1. Install the optional OpenTelemetry extra:

   pip install "everos[otel]"
   

2. Add [observability] to your everos.toml. The Langfuse keys derive the OTLP endpoint and auth automatically:

   [observability]
   enabled             = true
   langfuse_public_key = "pk-lf-..."
   langfuse_secret_key = "sk-lf-..."
   langfuse_host       = "https://us.cloud.langfuse.com"   # EU: https://cloud.langfuse.com
   # capture_content   = true   # opt-in: also record query / extracted memory text
   

   Container/CI equivalent via env vars: EVEROS_OBSERVABILITY__ENABLED=true, EVEROS_OBSERVABILITY__LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY=..., and so on.

3. Run EverOS normally:

   everos server start
   

Off by default — with enabled = false (or the otel extra absent) there is zero tracing overhead.

What you get

EverOS operation	Langfuse observation
POST /api/v1/memory/add · flush	span everos.memory.add / everos.memory.flush
memcell boundary detection (LLM)	generation everos.memcell.boundary (model + tokens)
episode extraction (LLM)	generation everos.extract
markdown persistence	span everos.persist.markdown
POST /api/v1/memory/search	retriever everos.memory.search → recall / rank
query / recall embedding	embedding everos.embedding
OME reflection strategies	agent everos.ome.<strategy> (linked to the triggering request's trace)

langfuse.session.id / langfuse.user.id group the traces; recall quality is pushed as Langfuse scores (recall_top_score always, and recall_hit for calibrated methods — HYBRID / AGENTIC). Query and memory text are captured only when capture_content = true.

Try it

With a server running and [observability] enabled:

python demo.py

It drives one add → flush → search (keyword / hybrid / agentic) cycle against http://127.0.0.1:8000 using only the standard library, then tells you to open Langfuse → Tracing filtered to session.id = langfuse_demo.
