This example demonstrates how to trace an Aleph Alpha completion request using OpenTelemetry.

### Prerequisites

- Python 3.10 or later
- An Aleph Alpha API key

### Setup

From the `packages/sample-app` directory, install the dependencies:

```bash
uv sync

Complete the Aleph Alpha example instructions.

The README stops after uv sync. Add the required environment variable, run command, trace-export setup, and content-capture setting.

ALEPH_ALPHA_API_KEY is required because the example reads that exact variable. AlephAlphaInstrumentor().instrument() does not configure a span exporter, so document a ConsoleSpanExporter or another exporter. The Aleph Alpha instrumentation captures prompt and completion content by default, and TRACELOOP_TRACE_CONTENT=false disables it.

Suggested README additions 
 ```bash
 uv sync
+```
+
+### Run
+
+Set the API key and run the example:
+
+```bash
+export ALEPH_ALPHA_API_KEY="your-aleph-alpha-api-key"
+uv run python sample_app/alephalpha.py
+```
+
+### View traces
+
+`AlephAlphaInstrumentor().instrument()` does not configure a span exporter. To view spans locally, initialize `Traceloop` with `ConsoleSpanExporter` before instrumenting, or configure another OpenTelemetry exporter.
+
+By default, this instrumentation records prompt and completion content in span attributes. Set `TRACELOOP_TRACE_CONTENT=false` to disable content capture.

Review comment at @packages/sample-app/README.md around lines 3 - 19:
Complete the Aleph Alpha setup section in the README after `uv sync`: document
setting the `ALEPH_ALPHA_API_KEY` environment variable and running
`sample_app/alephalpha.py`, explain that `AlephAlphaInstrumentor().instrument()`
alone does not configure a span exporter and how to view traces with
`ConsoleSpanExporter` or another exporter, and note that
`TRACELOOP_TRACE_CONTENT=false` disables the default prompt and completion
content capture.

Configure a local exporter before instrumenting Aleph Alpha.

The sample has no provider or exporter setup. Its direct local run can therefore create non-recording completion spans. Traceloop.init(app_name="alephalpha_sample") alone does not fix this: without TRACELOOP_API_KEY, the SDK returns before provider initialization. Pass a console exporter and disable batching for immediate local output.

Suggested fix

Configure a local trace provider with a console exporter and disable batching
before calling AlephAlphaInstrumentor().instrument() so completion spans are
recorded and emitted immediately during a direct run.
