Summary

Upgrades @voltagent/langfuse-exporter from the custom v3 OTel-backed exporter to a thin wrapper around LangfuseSpanProcessor from @langfuse/otel (Langfuse JS SDK v5), as requested in #1381.

Changes

package.json

  • Bumped to 3.0.0 (breaking: drops langfuse v3 dependency)
  • Replaced langfuse: ^3.38.6 with @langfuse/otel: ^5.0.0
  • Removed @opentelemetry/core from direct dependencies (now provided transitively via @langfuse/otel)
  • Updated @opentelemetry/api peer dep to ^1.9.0 (required by @langfuse/otel)
  • Fixed repository.directory from "packages/src" to "packages/langfuse-exporter"

src/exporter.ts -- Complete rewrite

  • Removed the ~450-line custom LangfuseExporter class that manually grouped spans by trace ID and recreated them via the v3 langfuse.trace() / .span() / .generation() event API
  • Replaced with VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor -- a thin SpanProcessor wrapper around LangfuseSpanProcessor from @langfuse/otel
  • Added normalizeVoltAgentAttributes() that runs on every span in both onStart and onEnd, mapping VoltAgent/Vercel-AI-SDK attributes to standard gen_ai.* semantic conventions:
    • ai.model.name -> gen_ai.request.model
    • ai.response.text -> gen_ai.output.text
    • ai.prompt.messages -> gen_ai.input.messages
    • ai.response.finishReason -> gen_ai.response.finish_reasons
    • ai.response.msToFirstChunk / ai.stream.msToFirstChunk -> gen_ai.response.time_to_first_token_ms
    • usage.prompt_tokens -> gen_ai.usage.input_tokens
    • usage.completion_tokens -> gen_ai.usage.output_tokens
    • ai.usage.tokens -> gen_ai.usage.total_tokens
    • enduser.id -> user.id
    • conversation.id -> session.id
  • Added scoped shouldExportSpan that always includes VoltAgent spans (instrumentationScope.name === "ai" or prefixed with "voltagent.") composed with the default Langfuse filter (or user-supplied filter), preventing unrelated HTTP/database spans from being pulled in
  • User/session/tags attributes are normalised on every span (not just the root trace), aligning with v5 observations-first data model

src/processor.ts -- Simplified

  • The old createLangfuseSpanProcessor factory is replaced with a re-export of VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor
  • Marked @deprecated with migration guidance

src/index.ts -- Updated exports

  • Primary export: VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor
  • Backward-compatible alias: LangfuseSpanProcessor (maps to VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor)
  • Re-exports LangfuseSpanProcessorParams, ShouldExportSpan, MaskFunction types from @langfuse/otel

Migration guide for users

- import { createLangfuseSpanProcessor } from "@voltagent/langfuse-exporter";
- const processor = createLangfuseSpanProcessor({ publicKey, secretKey });

+ import { VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor } from "@voltagent/langfuse-exporter";
+ const processor = new VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor({ publicKey, secretKey });

What is preserved

  • Parent-child span relationships (handled natively by OTel)
  • Generation usage/TTFT (normalised to gen_ai.* attributes)
  • Error status propagation
  • Batching, force-flush, and shutdown (delegated to LangfuseSpanProcessor)

What changes

  • No more manual trace/span/generation creation via v3 API
  • The LangfuseExporter class is removed; use VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor directly
  • langfuse v3 is no longer a dependency

Closes #1381


Summary by cubic

Upgrades @voltagent/langfuse-exporter to Langfuse JS SDK v5 via @langfuse/otel, replacing the custom v3 exporter with a thin span processor and normalizing attributes to gen_ai.* conventions. VoltAgent spans are now exported by default, as requested in #1381.

Refactors

  • Replaced the custom LangfuseExporter with VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor, a thin wrapper around @langfuse/otel's LangfuseSpanProcessor; batching, flush, and shutdown now come from upstream.
  • Normalizes ai.*/usage.* to gen_ai.* without overriding existing gen_ai.* values, and maps enduser.id to user.id, conversation.id to session.id, and prompt.tags/tags to langfuse.trace.tags.
  • The default shouldExportSpan now includes @voltagent/core and other @voltagent/*/voltagent.* scopes; a caller-supplied shouldExportSpan replaces it entirely.
  • Added unit tests for attribute normalization, scope filtering, and the shouldExportSpan override.

Migration

  • Replace createLangfuseSpanProcessor({...}) with new VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor({...}); the old factory is still exported as deprecated and forwards to the new class.
  • Upgrade to @voltagent/langfuse-exporter@3.x and @opentelemetry/api@^1.9.0, and remove direct langfuse v3 usage; the package now depends on @langfuse/otel@^5.

Written for commit dee50ec. Summary will update on new commits.

Changes

The package upgrades to @langfuse/otel v5. VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor normalizes span attributes, filters scopes, delegates lifecycle operations, and preserves compatibility exports.

Langfuse OTel processor migration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Processor contract and package wiring
packages/langfuse-exporter/package.json, packages/langfuse-exporter/src/exporter.ts, packages/langfuse-exporter/src/index.ts, .changeset/langfuse-v5-upgrade.md, examples/with-langfuse/*
The package uses @langfuse/otel and @opentelemetry/api. It defines processor options, exports the new processor and supporting types, updates the example, and records the SDK upgrade.
Span normalization and filtering
packages/langfuse-exporter/src/exporter.ts, packages/langfuse-exporter/src/exporter.spec.ts
The processor maps VoltAgent and Vercel AI SDK attributes to standard OpenTelemetry and Langfuse fields. It preserves existing target values and includes VoltAgent scopes in default export filtering.
Lifecycle delegation and compatibility entry point
packages/langfuse-exporter/src/exporter.ts, packages/langfuse-exporter/src/processor.ts, packages/langfuse-exporter/src/exporter.spec.ts
The processor normalizes spans during onStart and onEnd, then delegates span completion, flush, and shutdown operations. The legacy factory constructs the new processor and remains available as a compatibility entry point.

Explanation

Issue #1381 requires per-span user, session, tag, and trace-name attributes, plus tests for parent IDs, usage and TTFT, error status, batching, force-flush, and shutdown. exporter.ts maps user, session, tags, usage, and TTFT inputs, and delegates lifecycle calls to @langfuse/otel. It does not show trace-name normalization or assignment. exporter.spec.ts tests normalization, filtering, delegation, and the factory, but it does not test parent IDs, TTFT, error status, batching, force-flush, or shutdown behavior.

Preserve existing gen_ai.* values.

Lines 49 and 66 overwrite target attributes even when a standard value already exists. A span with both gen_ai.request.model and ai.model.id loses its original standard value. ai.model.name and ai.model.id also target the same key, so map order selects the final value. Only derive a target when attrs[to] == null, or define and test an explicit precedence rule.

Also applies to: 63-67

Fix the ReadableSpan mutation path.

onEnd(span: ReadableSpan) receives an ended OpenTelemetry ReadableSpan, but normalizeVoltAgentAttributes calls span.setAttribute(...) on that argument. setAttribute belongs to Span; use a Span setter during onStart and mutate the attributes map before delegating during onEnd so normalizing ended spans does not rely on a non-existent API.

Upgrade to Langfuse JS SDK v5 via @langfuse/otel

Replaced the custom v3 OTel-based exporter with a thin wrapper around `LangfuseSpanProcessor` from `@langfuse/otel`. Added `ai.*`/`usage.*` to `gen_ai.*` attribute normalization and scoped `shouldExportSpan` filtering.

Align the changeset with the breaking release.

Line [2] declares a minor release, but this migration removes the public LangfuseExporter and createLangfuseSpanProcessor APIs. That is a breaking change. The PR targets 3.0.0, while the supplied packages/langfuse-exporter/package.json already shows 3.0.0; leaving this entry as minor would schedule 3.1.0. Restore the pre-release package version and use major, or remove this changeset if version 3.0.0 was already materialized.

- include `@voltagent/core` in the default shouldExportSpan filter; that scope
  is not part of `isDefaultExportSpan`'s known instrumentors, so ordinary
  VoltAgent agent/workflow spans were being dropped
- treat a caller-supplied `shouldExportSpan` as the override rather than OR-ing
  VoltAgent spans through it, which made the predicate unable to exclude anything
- stop derived `gen_ai.*` values from clobbering an upstream instrumentor's
  value, and give `ai.model.id` / `ai.model.name` an explicit precedence
- map VoltAgent tags (`prompt.tags` / `tags`) to `langfuse.trace.tags`
- write attributes without `setAttribute` in `onEnd`, where the span is only a
  `ReadableSpan` (fixes a type error that broke `tsc` in this package)
- keep `createLangfuseSpanProcessor` as a deprecated factory and export it from
  the package entry point, so the 2.x API and `examples/with-langfuse` keep working
- mark the changeset as `major` and update the example to the new class
- add unit tests covering attribute normalisation, scope filtering and the

Thanks for the reviews — I went through every point below and pushed a rebuild of the branch on top of current main (single commit, dee50ec). All changes are verified locally.

Scope / filter

shouldExportSpan dropped the @voltagent/core scope (P1)
Correct, and this was the most serious one. VoltAgentObservability defaults its tracer to @voltagent/core (packages/core/src/observability/node/volt-agent-observability.ts:47), and that name is not in KNOWN_LLM_INSTRUMENTATION_SCOPE_PREFIXES, so isDefaultExportSpan() returned false for ordinary VoltAgent agent/workflow spans and they were silently dropped. isVoltAgentScope() now matches @voltagent/core, voltagent-core, @voltagent/* and voltagent.*.

A caller predicate could not exclude anything (P1)
Fixed. A supplied shouldExportSpan is now used as-is (matching LangfuseSpanProcessor semantics) and the widened filter is only applied when no predicate is given. Test added.

Attributes

derived values overwrote existing gen_ai.* values (P2)
Fixed — every derived write is now guarded by attrs[to] == null. For the ai.model.name / ai.model.id collision on gen_ai.request.model, the result is now deterministic instead of depending on Object.entries order.

tags were not propagated (P2)
Fixed — prompt.tags (JSON string) and tags (array) are both mapped to langfuse.trace.tags, matching v5's LangfuseOtelSpanAttributes.TRACE_TAGS. This restores behaviour the deleted v3 exporter had.

@opentelemetry/core in peerDependencies (P3)
Removed — nothing in the package imports it. It's still pulled in transitively via @langfuse/otel's own peer set. While doing this I also corrected the stale @opentelemetry/api range (^1.0.0^1.9.0).

Packaging

changeset was minor for a breaking change (P1)
Changed to major, with a migration snippet in the changeset. LangfuseExporter is gone and the package already sits at 3.0.0.

examples/with-langfuse broke (P2)
Fixed — the example now uses new VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor(...) and its specifier is bumped to ^3.0.0. I also kept createLangfuseSpanProcessor as a deprecated factory that forwards to the new class and now export it from index.ts, so the old entry point keeps resolving.

processor.ts re-export was unreachable (P3)
Fixed — index.ts exports createLangfuseSpanProcessor from it again (as it did before this PR), so the module is no longer dead code.

One thing I did not change

pnpm-lock.yaml (P2) — I intentionally left the lockfile alone rather than hand-editing it. I only added the manifest entry; @langfuse/otel and @langfuse/core are not in the lockfile yet, so it needs a pnpm install run at the repo root to regenerate. I'd rather a maintainer (or CI) produce that from the real resolver than hand-write an importer/snapshot diff. Happy to do it if you'd prefer a specific pnpm version — just let me know which.

Verification

Also found and fixed something the bots didn't flag: onEnd received a ReadableSpan, which has no setAttribute — the normalisation call there did not type-check. tsc now passes, and the write path falls back to the attribute map when the span has already ended.

  • tsc --noEmit — clean
  • biome check src/ — clean (using the repo's biome.json)
  • vitest run src/exporter.spec.ts10/10 passing, covering attribute mapping, the null-guard, tag propagation, scope filtering, the predicate override, and the deprecated factory

Correct the breaking-change list.

createLangfuseSpanProcessor remains exported as a deprecated compatibility factory. The package manifest also retains @opentelemetry/api and @opentelemetry/sdk-trace-base as peer dependencies.

Proposed documentation fix
- The `LangfuseExporter` class and the `createLangfuseSpanProcessor` wrapper around it are gone. `VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor` (a `SpanProcessor` wrapping `@langfuse/otel`) is now the entry point.
- The `@opentelemetry/*` and `langfuse@^3` dependencies are replaced by `@langfuse/otel@^5`.
+ The `LangfuseExporter` class is removed. `VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor` is now the primary entry point. The deprecated `createLangfuseSpanProcessor` factory remains as a compatibility wrapper.

Map the explicit trace name to langfuse.trace.name.

normalizeVoltAgentAttributes currently forwards entity.name without setting langfuse.trace.name. Named agent and workflow root spans therefore use their operation name as the Langfuse trace name instead of the documented precedence. Add this mapping before delegation:

const traceName =
  attrs["voltagent.agent.name"] ?? attrs["entity.name"];
if (traceName != null && attrs["langfuse.trace.name"] == null) {
  set("langfuse.trace.name", String(traceName));
}

This preserves an existing explicit Langfuse name, applies the documented precedence, and leaves the root span name as the fallback when neither attribute exists.

P3: The bullet "The `@opentelemetry/*` and `langfuse@^3` dependencies are replaced by `@langfuse/otel@^5`" is misleading: `@opentelemetry/api` (^1.9.0) and `@opentelemetry/sdk-trace-base` (^2.0.0) remain mandatory peerDependencies in this package, so users still have to provide OTel packages.

<violation number="1" location="packages/langfuse-exporter/src/exporter.spec.ts:130">
P3: The "normalises on end" test never exercises the post-end code path it claims to cover. The mock span still has a `setAttribute` mock, so `attributeTarget` in exporter.ts always takes the live-span setter branch (`typeof setter === "function"`). In production, `onEnd` receives a `ReadableSpan` with no `setAttribute`, so the direct attribute-map write branch is the real path — and it is left untested. Remove `setAttribute` from the mock before calling `onEnd` so the ended-span branch is covered.</violation>

<violation number="2" location="packages/langfuse-exporter/src/exporter.spec.ts:179">
P3: The default-filter tests only verify positive matches (`@voltagent/core` accepted). Nothing asserts that the widened filter still rejects spans outside VoltAgent scopes and gen_ai.*/known-instrumentor criteria, so a filter accidentally widened to accept everything would not be caught. Add a negative case with an unrelated `instrumentationScope.name` and no `gen_ai.*` attributes.</violation>

**Breaking changes**

- The `LangfuseExporter` class and the `createLangfuseSpanProcessor` wrapper around it are gone. `VoltAgentLangfuseProcessor` (a `SpanProcessor` wrapping `@langfuse/otel`) is now the entry point.
- The `@opentelemetry/*` and `langfuse@^3` dependencies are replaced by `@langfuse/otel@^5`.

P3: The bullet "The @opentelemetry/* and langfuse@^3 dependencies are replaced by @langfuse/otel@^5" is misleading: @opentelemetry/api (^1.9.0) and @opentelemetry/sdk-trace-base (^2.0.0) remain mandatory peerDependencies in this package, so users still have to provide OTel packages. State that only the direct dependencies changed, or name the peer deps that are still required.

P3: The default-filter tests only verify positive matches (@voltagent/core accepted). Nothing asserts that the widened filter still rejects spans outside VoltAgent scopes and gen_ai.*/known-instrumentor criteria, so a filter accidentally widened to accept everything would not be caught. Add a negative case with an unrelated instrumentationScope.name and no gen_ai.* attributes.

P3: The "normalises on end" test never exercises the post-end code path it claims to cover. The mock span still has a setAttribute mock, so attributeTarget in exporter.ts always takes the live-span setter branch (typeof setter === "function"). In production, onEnd receives a ReadableSpan with no setAttribute, so the direct attribute-map write branch is the real path — and it is left untested. Remove setAttribute from the mock before calling onEnd so the ended-span branch is covered.
