The gray spans are durable-workflow dispatch: each stage is an independently retried, checkpointed step, and the handoffs are what that crash-safety costs.

What happened

  1. Admitted at the edge

    A 46-character message from caller 3e48ef9d… passed schema validation, the per-caller rate limit, and both token budgets (charged an estimate of 1,036 tokens, settled later against actual usage).

  2. Became a durable workflow

    The endpoint never calls a model. At 16:48:05.024 the request was enqueued as run wrun_01M1VSXDCWABW…; tokens stream into the run’s persistent log, which is why a page reload can reattach mid-answer.

  3. Cleared the guardrail

    gpt-oss-safeguard classified the message against policy 6bb17bbe0908 in 497ms: allow.

    “Question about the assistant's knowledge regarding Bharathi”

  4. Pulled its evidence

    Hybrid search (dense embeddings fused with BM25) returned 6 passages in 380ms; only these entered the model’s context.

  6. Verified and settled

    Every citation was checked against the concept registry and resolves. Token budgets were settled against actual usage and this trace was written.
