feat(telemetry): add consolidated VITE flags and OTEL debug logs #46
Conversation
- Introduce getTelemetryLevel/getTelemetryDebug that prefer VITE_TELEMETRY_* and fall back to MAIN_/RENDERER_ variants for cross-process consistency - Add shouldLogDebug and gate verbose logs on debug=true or level=VERBOSE - Add guarded request/response/result logs to the main OTEL IPC relay for trace exports - Expose telemetry utils (level/debug/shouldLogDebug) to window in the renderer - Defaults remain NORMAL/false to avoid noise and simplify troubleshooting
WalkthroughIntroduces environment-driven telemetry debug utilities across main, renderer, and analytics modules. Replaces unconditional console logging with guards using shouldLogDebug for OTEL IPC tracing and Grafana Tempo verification. Adds verbose logs for 7TV WebSocket handler registration in ConnectionManager without altering functional behavior. Changes

utils/services/connectionManager.js (1)
123-127: LGTM - Well-scoped verbose logging for WebSocket event handler registrationThe added verbose logging provides valuable traceability for WebSocket event handler registration without affecting normal operation. The logs are appropriately informative and include both the success case (handler registration) and the warning case (missing handler).
src/main/index.js (3)
136-161: LGTM - Consistent telemetry debug utilities across main processThe consolidated telemetry debug configuration utilities properly implement the fallback hierarchy (VITE_* -> MAIN_VITE_* -> defaults) and provide consistent debug gating functionality across the main process. The implementation aligns well with the renderer-side utilities.
716-720: LGTM - Appropriate debug log gating for OTEL IPC tracingThe debug log gating using
shouldLogDebug()effectively reduces noise in production while preserving valuable debugging information when needed. The logs provide good visibility into the IPC relay process including payload sizes, URLs, and response status.Also applies to: 764-766, 776-778, 798-800

5-31: LGTM - Consistent debug utilities implementationThe telemetry debug configuration utilities properly implement the consolidated approach with appropriate fallbacks. The use of
process.envinstead ofimport.meta.envis correct for Node.js/main process context.
310-312: LGTM - Effective debug log gating for user analyticsThe conditional logging using
shouldLogDebug()appropriately gates verbose analytics logs while preserving essential operational information. The implementation reduces production noise while maintaining debugging capabilities when needed.Also applies to: 326-328, 354-356, 454-456, 492-495, 627-638, 676-686

198-223: LGTM - Well-designed consolidated telemetry debug utilitiesThe telemetry debug utilities properly implement the consolidated approach with appropriate fallbacks and provide consistent functionality for debug log gating. The implementation correctly prioritizes the new consolidated VITE_* variables while maintaining backwards compatibility with the renderer-specific prefixed versions.
310-318: LGTM - Proper exposure of debug utilities via telemetry bridgeThe extension of
window.__KT_TELEMETRY_UTILS__to include the new debug utilities (getTelemetryDebugandshouldLogDebug) provides consistent access to debug controls across the renderer process. This enables other components to use the same debug gating logic.
676-688: LGTM - Consistent debug log gating in renderer OTEL systemThe application of
shouldLogDebug()to gate verbose OTEL export logs, span validation information, and status filtering details effectively reduces production noise while preserving valuable debugging information. The extensive span validation debugging in particular provides excellent visibility when troubleshooting tracing issues.Also applies to: 693-702, 709-720, 911-956, 999-1006

Fix typo in fallback variable name

const getTelemetryLevel = () => {

const level = process.env.VITE_TELEMETRY_LEVEL ||

'NORMAL';
return level.toUpperCase();

In src/telemetry/user-analytics.js around line 21, the fallback environment
variable name has a typo: change any occurrence of MAIN_VITELEMETRY_LEVEL to
MAIN_VITE_TELEMETRY_LEVEL so it matches the established
MAIN_VITE_TELEMETRY_LEVEL pattern used elsewhere; update the string/identifier
at line 21 accordingly to the correct underscored name.

@BP602, you're absolutely right - I apologize for the hallucination. Looking at the actual code in the file, line 21 correctly shows process.env.MAIN_VITE_TELEMETRY_LEVEL with the proper underscore. There is no typo in the code. The environment variable naming is consistent throughout.
Thank you for the correction!
