Kitaru Logfire importer

Import Logfire records-query JSON and NDJSON exports as Kitaru sessions. This package backs the built-in kitaru/logfire importer and runs on a Kitaru worker, so the export is parsed in your environment.

Most users do not install or call this package directly. Start a Kitaru worker, then select the built-in importer:

kitaru session import logfire-records.jsonl \
  --importer kitaru/logfire@latest \
  --agent support-agent@latest \
  --wait

The importer rebuilds span hierarchy and conservatively identifies model and tool calls from OpenTelemetry attributes. Supply a stable source identity when an export does not contain one, especially when importing from more than one Logfire project.

See the Logfire import guide for accepted formats, parameters, deduplication behavior, and fidelity limits.

Nested span paths support up to 64 levels, counting a root as level 1. Invalid costs, token counts, embedded JSON, and text that cannot serialize reject the affected grouped session; unrelated sessions continue. A trace rejected before grouping does not prevent a valid sibling trace from importing into the same session.

Adapter

Install the package with the adapter extra to use the adapter, which adds the provider SDK it needs:

uv add "kitaru-logfire-importer[adapter]"

The package also ships an adapter that imports Logfire traces of wrapped agent runs. The adapter uses the Logfire SDK already configured in your process and the Kitaru connection from your environment. Set LOGFIRE_TOKEN to the write token the SDK records traces with.

The trace fetch goes through the Logfire Query API, which authenticates with a read token, a separate credential from the SDK's write token. Create one under your Logfire project settings and set it as LOGFIRE_READ_TOKEN. Then wrap your agent entrypoint in a LogfireAdapter and run it through the adapter.

from kitaru_logfire_importer.adapter import LogfireAdapter

adapter = LogfireAdapter()
result = adapter.run(my_agent, "Hello")

The adapter runs the function inside a Logfire trace, waits for Logfire to finish ingesting the trace, fetches it, and imports it as one Kitaru session. Use run_async for async functions. When the trace does not complete within the completeness timeout, the adapter creates a failed session carrying the trace id.
