Tracing Configuration¶

Elroy supports tracing with Arize-Phoenix for monitoring and debugging.

Overview¶

Tracing allows you to visualize and analyze the assistant's operations, including: - Tool calls and their results - Memory operations - Context management - Model interactions

Configuration Options¶

Set the environment variable ELROY_ENABLE_TRACING=1 to enable tracing
ELROY_TRACING_APP_NAME: Optional name for the tracing application [default: elroy]

Using Arize-Phoenix¶

When tracing is enabled, Elroy will send trace data to Arize-Phoenix. To view the traces:

Install Arize-Phoenix if you haven't already:
```
pip install arize-phoenix
```
Start the Phoenix UI:
```
phoenix ui
```
Open the Phoenix UI in your browser (typically at http://localhost:6006)
View the traces for your Elroy application

Example Configuration¶

# Enable tracing
export ELROY_ENABLE_TRACING=1

# Set a custom application name
export ELROY_TRACING_APP_NAME="my-elroy-assistant"

# Run Elroy
elroy

This configuration will send trace data to Arize-Phoenix with the application name "my-elroy-assistant".
