Built-in relay connection spans include environment.label, which can be the user's computer name. The existing environment ID already identifies the connection for diagnostics, so exporting its human-readable label adds unnecessary identifying data.

Remove that attribute from the relay connection-attempt span. Retain environment ID, target kind, attempt/outcome metadata, UI labels, and local diagnostics. This is a focused data-minimization change to existing diagnostics, with no new setting or connection behavior.

Validation on macOS with Node 26.12.1:

• Extended two existing supervisor cases to inspect spans from the actual relay tracer. Both failed before the fix because environment.label was exported.
• All 59 supervisor tests pass after the fix, including successful reconnects and failed attempts. Environment ID/kind and UI labels remain available.
• vp run check:changed passes the changed-file checks.

Scope is the explicit span attribute. Arbitrary error-message redaction is separate work; this does not promise that user-derived text can never appear in diagnostic errors. No production telemetry endpoint was contacted.

Walkthrough

Relay connection-attempt spans now set environment attributes directly. Relay trace error sanitization uses error names and filtered stack frames instead of source error messages. Tests cover span attributes and hostname omission from exported errors.

Changes: Relay span attributes

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Update relay span attributes and assertions packages/client-runtime/src/connection/supervisor.ts, packages/client-runtime/src/connection/supervisor.test.ts	The relay attempt span sets environment.id and environment.target.kind directly. The credential-change test checks that two recorded spans include these attributes and have no environment label.

Relay trace error sanitization

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Sanitize exported trace errors packages/shared/src/relayTracing.ts, packages/shared/src/relayTracing.test.ts	Sanitized trace errors use the error name and filtered stack frames. Cause stacks remain attached. The test checks that a hostname in the failure message and cause is omitted.

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: Low · up to e0ffc

This change reduces identifying data in relay traces. A narrow fallback can still export an unrecognized stack header, which may contain an environment label. The impact is small and the fix is local, so the change is mergeable with that follow-up.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change: relay connection spans no longer export machine labels. It uses the conventional commit form and matches the diff, which removes the environment.label attribute from the relay connection-attempt span. The title is short and specific.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description explains the problem (environment.label can be a computer name and adds identifying data) and the change (removing that attribute from the relay connection-attempt span). It gives verification on macOS with Node 26.12.1, including supervisor test results and the check:changed run, and it states scope limits. It names the model and harness as the template asks. It has no separate Scope section with an issue link or maintainer request, and no linked issue shows the bug. Those gaps are minor for a focused fix, so the description is mostly complete.

Thanks for the review! Nice to keep the connection diagnostics useful while sending a little less identifying data.

Discard unrecognized stack headers instead of exporting them.

If an Error has message = "connection failed" but its stack starts with Error: studio-mac failed, the header check fails. This fallback retains the source message, and Line 100 exports it. Custom stacks or preserved stacks after message changes can reach this path.

Keep only stack frames when the header cannot be identified. Extend the existing test with a mismatched message and stack header.

As per coding guidelines, log annotations must not expose “arbitrary defect text.” As per path instructions, exact error values belong only in cause.

Not shown:

• Real Axiom ingestion was not checked; exports were captured at a recording OTLP receiver.
• Failure-path error message, cause, and stack sanitization in relayTracing.ts was not exercised because both captured attempts connected successfully.
• Desktop and mobile clients were not run; this proof covers the real web client.
