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 18-character message from caller 134a3ea2… passed schema validation, the per-caller rate limit, and both token budgets (charged an estimate of 1,029 tokens, settled later against actual usage).

  2. Became a durable workflow

    The endpoint never calls a model. At 18:41:06.422 the request was enqueued as run wrun_01M23QJGK9J1P…; 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 1.30s: allow.

    “Question about Bharathi's location”

  4. Pulled its evidence

    Hybrid search (dense embeddings fused with BM25) returned 6 passages in 569ms; only these entered the model’s context.

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