[OSS-150] Clarify tracing and telemetry docs by Vidit-Ostwal · Pull Request #7311 · crewAIInc/crewAI

Vidit-Ostwal · 2026-09-07T11:51:31Z

Note that AMP tracing is managed independently from telemetry
Document the first-run traces prompt and how to change the preference later
Cross-link telemetry to the tracing page
Sync the same updates to ar, ko, and pt-BR

Users who disable telemetry still need the tracing docs to understand first-run trace viewing and how the two settings relate.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The documentation now explains first-run trace viewing, trace preference controls, and the separation between CrewAI tracing and telemetry in English, Arabic, Korean, and Portuguese.

Changes

Tracing documentation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
First-run tracing guidance `docs/edge//observability/tracing.mdx`, `docs/edge//concepts/cli.mdx`, `docs/edge/en/concepts/crews.mdx`	Tracing pages document the first-run prompt and later controls. CLI documentation states that the prompt updates the trace preference. The Crew tracing description no longer limits tracing to OpenTelemetry.
Telemetry tracing references `docs/edge/*/telemetry.mdx`	Telemetry pages link to the localized tracing documentation for AMP tracing coverage.

Suggested reviewers: joaomdmoura

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 40952

This documentation update clarifies tracing and telemetry settings, but Arabic readers may not clearly recognize the first-run CLI prompt or know which response to enter. Correcting the wording and response instruction would make the new guidance ready to merge.

Use an Arabic term for the CLI prompt.

طرف تفاعلي describes an interactive party or entity. It does not clearly identify a prompt. Replace it with موجّه تفاعلي so users can identify the interface element they must answer.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Match the response text to [y/N].

The example prompt shows a single-letter response, but the Arabic instruction says to choose yes. Tell users to enter y, or document both accepted forms if the CLI supports both.
