Instrument

import os
import trulayer
from autogen import AssistantAgent, UserProxyAgent
from trulayer.instruments.autogen import instrument_autogen

trulayer.init(api_key=os.environ["TRULAYER_API_KEY"], project_name="my-app")

assistant = AssistantAgent(
    name="assistant",
    llm_config={"model": "gpt-4o-mini"},
)
user = UserProxyAgent(name="user", human_input_mode="NEVER", max_consecutive_auto_reply=1)

with trulayer.trace("autogen-chat") as trace:
    instrument_autogen(assistant, trace)
    instrument_autogen(user, trace)
    user.initiate_chat(assistant, message="What is the capital of France?")

​

What gets captured

• An agent span around every initiate_chat() call, with the initiating message as input and the final message history as output.
• One child span per generate_reply() call — captures the sender, the message being replied to, and the generated reply.
• LLM calls nested under replies appear as llm spans when you also instrument the underlying provider.

​

Known gotchas

• Instrument every agent in the conversation. initiate_chat on agent A triggers generate_reply on agent B; both need to be instrumented to get a complete waterfall.
• human_input_mode="ALWAYS" — when a human is in the loop, the wait for stdin is captured as span duration. Expect long-lived spans; set alerting thresholds accordingly.
• GroupChat. Spans are recorded per agent, not per group. To get a single trace per group run, initiate the chat inside one trulayer.trace(...) block and instrument every member.
