loopview-sdk

Connect any Python agent to loopview in one call.

import loopview_sdk
loopview_sdk.connect()

connect() does what every agent needs:

• sends traces to loopview (LOOPVIEW_URL, else OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT, else http://127.0.0.1:4318), every 100 ms;
• switches on the OpenTelemetry instrumentation of every installed agent framework or model SDK. Instrumentor packages register themselves, so any OpenInference package, OpenTelemetry's GenAI instrumentations and OpenLLMetry are found; when two cover the same library, OpenInference's is used. Pydantic AI is switched on directly;
• turns on message content capture where an instrumentation leaves it off;
• reports span starts, so steps light up the moment they begin;
• flushes at exit, so short scripts don't lose their last spans.

Options: connect(service_name=..., url=..., instrument=["openai"] or False, capture_content=False, live=False, provider=my_provider, quiet=True).

A loop you wrote yourself

Model SDK instrumentation records model calls only. Wrap your loop so it is one run, drawn as an agent:

with loopview_sdk.agent("weather_assistant"):
    ...  # your loop

Only the live start reports

LiveStartProcessor is the start reporter connect() adds, usable on its own next to your own exporter:

from loopview_sdk import LiveStartProcessor
provider.add_span_processor(LiveStartProcessor())
