Product record: https://factory.8090.ai/project/b415065f-ab2f-4f53-8864-0c009fd098cb/requirements/8e389016-a9c8-4352-9121-72f0e361fdf6 (REQ-OBS-RSO-034 + AC-OBS-RSO-002.3) and blueprint https://factory.8090.ai/project/b415065f-ab2f-4f53-8864-0c009fd098cb/blueprints/40e35d24-8249-4f72-b311-f311dc71aec5 (section "NemoClaw onboarding trace artifacts", ADR-105).

Summary

When NEMOCLAW_TRACE is set, the NemoClaw harness writes OTel-style spans for each onboarding phase to disk -- but the ClawMetry adapter was discarding the file entirely, so a failed or slow onboarding phase was invisible on the dashboard. This PR adds a _nemoclaw_onboard_trace() helper that reads the file and surfaces the worst-case status, error phase names, and slowest-span summary.

Changes

  • Follow-up (2026-09-03): normalise OTel span status objects ({code: N} / STATUS_CODE_*) so nemoclawOnboardTraceStatus is always one of OK / ERROR / UNSET; two more unit tests (11 in the file).

  • clawmetry/adapters/openclaw.py: Add _nemoclaw_onboard_trace() -> dict after _model_router_live(). Resolves the trace file via NEMOCLAW_TRACE_FILE -> NEMOCLAW_TRACE_DIR/trace.json -> .e2e/traces/trace.json (harness default). Handles both the flat harness {spans:[...], summary:{...}} shape and the standard OTel resource_spans export. Self-gates on NEMOCLAW_TRACE env var; returns {} when disabled or file absent. Wire it into detect() after _workshop_approval_config().

  • tests/test_obs_gap_nemoclaw_onboard_trace_5193.py: 7 unit tests covering disabled (env absent, =0), file missing -> {}, all-OK spans, ERROR span surfaces status + name, summary.slowest_spans forwarded, and NEMOCLAW_TRACE_DIR path resolution.

Test plan

  • python3 -m pytest tests/test_obs_gap_nemoclaw_onboard_trace_5193.py -v -- 7/7 pass (verified locally)
  • python3 -c 'import ast; ast.parse(open("clawmetry/adapters/openclaw.py").read())' -- syntax OK (verified locally)
  • Set NEMOCLAW_TRACE=1 and NEMOCLAW_TRACE_FILE to a sample trace JSON; run clawmetry and confirm nemoclawOnboardTraceStatus appears in the adapter's DetectResult meta.

Bot meta

Draft PR opened autonomously based on the plan in #5193. Marked draft for human review -- mark Ready for Review once happy.

Closes #5193

Drift-bot is reporting blueprint drift (2 findings) for this PR. The fix requires updating the corresponding Blueprint at factory.8090.ai — that's an author action outside what the sweep can automate.

Status: Blocked by Drift Bot since 2026-08-25. Code and tests are complete; 2 blueprint documentation gaps are blocking the E2E Gate.

Items to add in the Software Factory:

No code changes needed. After updating both entries and re-triggering drift-bot, this PR should be merge-ready.

Smoke (once gate clears): python3 -m pytest tests/test_obs_gap_nemoclaw_onboard_trace_5193.py -v — 7/7 tests.

Test plan & review notes

Repo: vivekchand/clawmetry

What changed

  • clawmetry/adapters/openclaw.py: adds _nemoclaw_onboard_trace() — reads NeMoClaw harness OTel trace files (flat {spans:[...]} or standard resource_spans shape), extracts worst-case status, error phase names, and slowest-span summary; surfaces nemoclawOnboardTraceStatus/SpanCount/Errors/SlowSpans into detect() metadata when NEMOCLAW_TRACE=1.
  • tests/test_obs_gap_nemoclaw_onboard_trace_5193.py (new, 190 lines): 10 test cases covering all trace shapes, disabled states, missing files, camelCase OTel keys, and the slow-span forwarding.

Smoke commands

pytest tests/test_obs_gap_nemoclaw_onboard_trace_5193.py -v   # 10 tests
# Manually:
NEMOCLAW_TRACE=1 NEMOCLAW_TRACE_FILE=/tmp/t.json python3 -c "
import json; json.dump({'spans':[{'name':'phase.gateway','status':'ERROR'}]}, open('/tmp/t.json','w'))
import clawmetry.adapters.openclaw as oc; print(oc._nemoclaw_onboard_trace())
"
# Expected: {'nemoclawOnboardTraceStatus': 'ERROR', 'nemoclawOnboardTraceSpanCount': 1, 'nemoclawOnboardTraceErrors': ['phase.gateway']}

Likely failure modes from the diff

  • NEMOCLAW_TRACE not set → returns {} silently — verify this doesn't log a warning.
  • OTel scopeSpans camelCase key — covered by test_resource_spans_camel_case_scope_spans.
  • Zone-id on file path on Windows — errors="replace" handles encoding issues.

Blocker: 2 Drift Bot findings on the Runtime and Session Observability requirement and blueprint — NeMoClaw OTel trace surfacing not documented. Needs factory.8090.ai update, then a push to retrigger.

…acts (#5193)

The NemoClaw harness writes OpenTelemetry-style spans for each onboarding
phase when NEMOCLAW_TRACE is set, but the adapter discarded the file entirely.
Adds _nemoclaw_onboard_trace() which resolves the file via NEMOCLAW_TRACE_FILE /
NEMOCLAW_TRACE_DIR / .e2e/traces/trace.json, parses both the flat harness shape
and the OTel resource_spans format, and surfaces worst-case status, error phase
names, and summary.slowest_spans so a failed or slow onboarding step is
diagnosable from the dashboard.

Closes #5193

Co-Authored-By: ClawMetry Autofix Bot <bot-autofix@clawmetry.dev>
Add two tests covering the standard OTel export shape (resource_spans →
scope_spans/scopeSpans → spans) to close the gap identified in babysit
review — only the flat harness format was previously tested.

⚠️ Drift Bot (ClawMetry) — Blueprint: Runtime and Session Observability

The implementation includes specific observability design details (error detection via span-status ranking with ERROR/UNSET/OK priorities, error phase name extraction from ERROR spans, slowest_spans output capped at 5 entries, support for both flat harness and resource_spans OTel trace formats) that are not documented in the blueprint's approach to trace context inspection.

…w onboarding trace

The standard OTel JSON export writes span status as {"code": N} (0 UNSET,
1 OK, 2 ERROR) and some exporters as STATUS_CODE_*. The ranking compared
raw strings, so an export-shaped trace reported "{'CODE': 2}" as its
status. Map both forms (and unrecognised values) onto OK/ERROR/UNSET so
nemoclawOnboardTraceStatus is always one of the three documented values.

Spec: REQ-OBS-RSO-034 / AC-OBS-RSO-002.3 and the "NemoClaw onboarding
trace artifacts" blueprint section (Runtime and Session Observability).

…y partly read (#5764)

Closes #5750.

#5750 was filed automatically at severity **high**: "No code path in the
OpenClaw/NemoClaw adapter reads NEMOCLAW_TRACE_FILE / the .e2e/traces
directory or parses this trace artifact."

That code has shipped. `clawmetry/adapters/openclaw.py:1705` reads
`NEMOCLAW_TRACE_FILE`, falls back to `NEMOCLAW_TRACE_DIR` and then the
harness default, and puts `nemoclawOnboardTraceStatus`,
`nemoclawOnboardTraceSpanCount`, `nemoclawOnboardTraceErrors` and
`nemoclawOnboardSlowSpans` on the detection record. `clawmetry/adapters/nemo.py`
reads it too. REQ-OBS-RSO-034 specifies the whole capability, delivered by
PR #5198.

The auditor never saw any of it. `_adapter_source` read the first 60,000
characters; `openclaw.py` is 193,340. The reader sits at line 1690, roughly
18k characters past the cut, so **69% of the adapter was invisible** -- and
both runtimes this OSS audit covers map to that same file, so every run
judged a two-thirds-clipped adapter.

Then the prompt told the model: "verify against the FULL adapter above (it is
provided in full)". For a task that is entirely about reporting ABSENCE, that
sentence converts "I did not see it" into "it is not there". The model did
exactly what it was told the evidence supported.

This is the second time. The docstring records the first: aider's conditional
COST at line ~527 was cut, the audit flagged "no COST", and the cap was raised
to 60k in response. Raising a number is not a fix for a file that grows.

* the budget is now far above any adapter here, and `_adapter_source` returns
  whether it trimmed rather than trimming silently;
* when it DOES trim, the prompt says so instead of claiming completeness;
* `_adapter_index` always carries every `def` and every UPPER_CASE string from
  the WHOLE file, so an absence claim stays checkable even under trimming.
  Small, complete, and built from the full source regardless of the body.

tests/test_harness_audit_reads_whole_adapter.py auto-discovers from the
manifest, so an adapter that outgrows the budget tomorrow fails here instead
of quietly filing fiction. Guard proven: restoring the 60k cap and the old
completeness claim reds 5 of 6, including both audited runtimes and the
`NEMOCLAW_TRACE_FILE`-past-60k witness.

The four sibling issues #5746 to #5749 were filed by the same truncated runs
and each needs the same check against the full adapter before anyone works it.
