Summary

ChatClient reads GOODDATA_EVAL_TRACE_LABELS (key=value,...) and sends it as a W3C baggage header on every chat request, so every gen-ai observation an eval run causes is labelled at creation: each label becomes langfuse_metadata_<key>, and model_version also becomes langfuse_version, the dimension Langfuse groups cost by.

Why: Langfuse v4 cannot label an observation after it exists. The post-hoc trace-create enrichment gdc-nas's combo_report.py used stops working on 2026-11-16 and is removed in gooddata/gdc-nas#27251. gen-ai's Langfuse span processor copies langfuse_* baggage onto every span it starts, so the root generation, the cost-bearing children, retries and the title trace all carry the labels.

GOODDATA_EVAL_TRACE_LABELS='model_version=gpt-5.2 openai,github_run_id=42'
-> baggage: langfuse_version=gpt-5.2%20openai,langfuse_metadata_model_version=gpt-5.2%20openai,langfuse_metadata_github_run_id=42

Unset or empty sends no header, so every existing run is unchanged.

Decisions

  1. A process-wide env var, not a ChatClient parameter. Ten run_agentic_* functions construct their own client; threading a parameter through all of them buys nothing, since the labels describe the whole run. The caller (tavern-e2e's conftest, in gdc-nas#27251) sets it once.
  2. model_version doubles as version. It is the combo id combo_report already groups on, so cost by version lines up with the report by construction.
  3. Known limits, documented at the constant: a value cannot contain a comma (the env format has no escape), and a key must be a plain token, or gen-ai's OTel propagator drops it.

What comes next

  • gdc-nas#27251: tavern-e2e sets the variable, and gen-ai keeps caller langfuse_* baggage only where genAi.langfuse.acceptCallerBaggage is on (default off, because any caller could otherwise stamp production traces). gooddata/gitops-components#345 turns it on for tiger-staging.
  • A release, then a raised gooddata-eval pin in gdc-nas tests/tavern-e2e/pyproject.toml.
  • core/summary/http_client.py does not send the labels yet; dashboard-summary evals stay unlabelled.

Test plan

  • New tests in test_sse_client.py: labels on both conversation creation and the message, percent-encoding, no langfuse_version without model_version, no header for unset / empty / malformed values. Written first, failing before the change.
  • make -C packages/gooddata-eval format-fix lint-fix type-check clean; TEST_ENVS=py314 make -C packages/gooddata-eval test: 1531 passed.
  • The exact header this builds, fed through gen-ai's own langfuse 4.14.4 SDK with FastAPI instrumentation: langfuse.version and langfuse.trace.metadata.* land on both the root and the child generation; a value with a space or + round-trips.

Risk

low — opt-in: nothing changes unless GOODDATA_EVAL_TRACE_LABELS is set.

jira: GDAI-2547
risk: low

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added support for configuring trace labels that are attached to AI observations and sent with conversation and message requests. The model_version label also sets the observation version.
    • Label keys are validated; invalid keys are skipped with a warning, while valid labels are retained. No trace metadata is sent when no valid labels are configured.
    • The model_version value applies to all models in the process. Dashboard-summary runs are excluded.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The client reads GOODDATA_EVAL_TRACE_LABELS, converts valid labels to W3C baggage, and adds the baggage to authorization headers. A nonempty model_version adds a langfuse_version entry. Tests cover propagation to conversation and message requests.

packages/gooddata-eval/src/gooddata_eval/core/chat/sse_client.py, packages/gooddata-eval/tests/test_sse_client.py, packages/gooddata-eval/AGENTS.md
The client parses comma-separated labels, encodes their values, and adds the resulting baggage to authorization headers. Tests cover conversation and message requests, optional version baggage, and absent or malformed settings. The documentation describes the setting.

1059-1059: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add precise annotations to the new test code.

The scoped Python guideline requires annotations for every function and for non-obvious locals, especially empty collections. The packages/gooddata-eval/AGENTS.md instructions define no exception.

Downgrade this from a major concern to a recommended refactor. The change affects typing and maintainability, not runtime behavior.

Langfuse v4 cannot add a label to an observation after it is created:
the trace-create ingestion event stops working on 2026-11-16 and no
endpoint updates an existing observation. A caller that wants its
gen-ai traces grouped by combo or CI run therefore has to send the
label with the request.

ChatClient now reads GOODDATA_EVAL_TRACE_LABELS (key=value pairs,
comma-separated) and sends them as a W3C baggage header on every chat
request: each label as langfuse_metadata_<key>, and model_version also
as langfuse_version, the dimension Langfuse groups cost by. gen-ai's
Langfuse span processor copies langfuse_* baggage onto every span it
starts, so the root generation, the cost-bearing children, retries and
the title trace all carry the labels. Values are percent-encoded; OTel
decodes them with unquote_plus, so '+' and spaces survive. Unset or
empty sends no header, which keeps every existing run unchanged.

Verified against gen-ai's own langfuse 4.14.4 SDK and FastAPI
instrumentation: the header this builds lands as langfuse.version and
langfuse.trace.metadata.* on both the root and the child generation.
gen-ai only keeps caller langfuse_* baggage where
genAi.langfuse.acceptCallerBaggage is on (gooddata/gdc-nas#27251).
