What

observability_and_tracing.md only showed registering the SGP processor. Nothing exports spans until a processor is registered, and the SGP processor disables itself without SGP credentials, so a reader following the guide locally saw an empty traces tab. Adds a "Seeing spans in the developer UI" section for AgentexTracingProcessorConfig (writes to the backend /spans API) and reframes the SGP section as additive.

Companion to scale-agentex-python PR "fix(templates): register the local Agentex tracing processor".

RetriggerConfidence Score: 5/5

The documentation-only change appears safe to merge, with no concrete correctness, security, or repository-rule violations identified.

Summary

  • Adds a registration example for AgentexTracingProcessorConfig.
  • Documents the expected backend endpoint and local credential flow.
  • Reframes SGP span delivery as an additional processor.
  • Updates the tracing summary to describe both destinations.

Nothing exports spans until a tracing processor is registered. The guide only
showed the SGP processor, which disables itself without SGP credentials, so a
reader following it locally saw an empty traces tab. Document the Agentex
processor (AgentexTracingProcessorConfig) that writes to the backend /spans API.
