feat: opt-in OpenTelemetry tracing and metrics (experimental) (#2769)

* feat(telemetry): add opt-in OpenTelemetry tracing (PR 1: lifecycle + root span)

Implements the first increment of docs/proposals/otel-tracing.md (#2767):

- pkg/telemetry: SDK setup from standard OTEL_* env vars (autoexport for
  exporter selection, env-driven sampler/propagators, OTEL_SDK_DISABLED),
  command-span lifecycle, no-op-by-default accessors
- --otel-tracing flag / HELMFILE_OTEL_TRACING env switch
- root span "helmfile <command>" with file/environment/selectors/exit_code
  attributes; TRACEPARENT-based remote-parent extraction for CI correlation
- shutdown flush on both normal-exit and signal paths (nil-safe, 5s bound)
- app.New derives its context from telemetry.CommandContext()
  (Background-identical when tracing is disabled)
- docs: otel.md user guide, experimental-features entry, design proposal
- tests: hermetic unit tests, app context-contract pinning, flag registration

Telemetry problems never fail a run: exporter misconfiguration and export
errors degrade to disabled with a warning. When disabled, behavior and
performance are identical to before (no-op tracer, no goroutines, no
network).

* feat(telemetry): trace every external process + trace-context bridges (PR 2)

Implements the second increment of docs/proposals/otel-tracing.md (#2767):

- pkg/helmexec/span.go: one span per external process started by helmfile
  (helm invocations, hooks, plugin execs) at the ShellRunner choke point —
  helm.exec (with helm.subcommand) vs os.exec, with redacted exec.args,
  exec.exit_code, and error status on failure
- pkg/helmexec/redact.go: shared argument redaction with two profiles;
  legacy is byte-identical to the historical exit-error behavior (existing
  goldens unchanged), strict (spans) additionally covers --set=k=v and
  credential flags; exit_error.go now uses the shared helper
- orphan-trace bridges with bit-identical cancellation semantics
  (context.WithoutCancel of the command context): both kubedog call sites
  (state.go) and hook execution (event.Bus gains an optional Ctx consumed
  by its default runner; state.go sets it, nil falls back to TODO as before)
- OTLP end-to-end test (in-process httptest receiver, no external
  collector): span export, error status/exit code, redaction, and
  parent-linkage to the command span
- docs/otel.md updated to the now-traced surface

Verified end-to-end with the console exporter: helmfile template on a
local chart yields the command span plus helm.exec spans for helm
version/dependency/template, all nested under it.

* feat(telemetry): state-loading and hook spans (PR 3a)

Implements the third increment of docs/proposals/otel-tracing.md (#2767):

- helmfile.discover_states around findDesiredStateFiles and helmfile.load
  around loadDesiredStateFromYamlWithBaseDir; both cover all callers
  (incl. nested helmfiles) with no signature changes
- helmfile.render / helmfile.parse children per document part, parented
  through a traceCtx field on the unexported desiredStateLoader struct
  (set once at its single construction site)
- helmfile.hook span per hook execution: Trigger's per-hook body extracted
  into runHook (readability win on its own), the hook's subprocess span
  nests under it via a per-hook ctx-swapped ShellRunner clone
  (cancellation unchanged — Bus.Ctx never carries cancellation by contract)
- pkg/telemetry/otlptest: shared in-process OTLP/HTTP receiver harness,
  now used by helmexec, event, and app span tests
- golden span-tree test at the app layer (root -> discover -> load ->
  render/parse, via the exectest fake helm) and a hook-span nesting test
- nil-ctx guard for App literals built directly by tests (App.spanParentCtx)

Verified end-to-end with the console exporter: a template run over a
gotmpl state file with a prepare hook yields the full tree with the hook's
os.exec nested under helmfile.hook.

* feat(telemetry): per-release spans nested under the load span (PR 3b)

Implements the per-release increment of docs/proposals/otel-tracing.md
(#2767) — spans nest command -> load -> release -> helm exec:

- helmexec.HelmContext gains an optional Ctx carrying the per-release span
  context; the execer's new execWithContext funnel consumes it via a
  per-call runner clone (runnerWithCtx) so the shared, cached execer is
  never mutated across concurrent workers. The seven Interface methods
  that take a HelmContext (Sync/Diff/ReleaseStatus/List/DecryptSecret/
  Delete/Test) route through it; nil Ctx behaves exactly as before.
  exec() lost its always-nil override parameter on the way (unparam).
- pkg/state/span.go: SetTraceContext + startReleaseSpan/endReleaseSpan
  helpers (release/namespace/chart/labels attributes, sorted for stable
  output); a typed-nil guard (releaseErrAsError) avoids the classic
  nil-pointer-in-interface trap on *ReleaseError.
- release spans in the worker loops: SyncReleases, DiffReleases,
  DeleteReleasesForSync, PrepareCharts, and iterateOnReleases (status/
  delete/test via a new verb parameter); their HelmContext is stamped with
  the release span context where one is built.
- pkg/app sets st.SetTraceContext(loadCtx) right after loading a state
  file, rooting all per-release spans under helmfile.load.
- bridged one more detached tracking call found on the way
  (trackReleaseIfEnabled's context.Background in the sync worker).
- golden test: release span present, nested under load, correct
  attributes; unit test for the runnerWithCtx clone semantics.

Verified with the console exporter: helmfile template yields
release.prepare(demo) under load with full attributes.

* feat(telemetry): nest status/delete/test execs under their release spans

Completes the per-release exec nesting for the iterateOnReleases-based
loops (docs/proposals/otel-tracing.md §4.4 phase 2): the do closures now
receive the release span context and stamp it into their HelmContext, so
helm status/delete/test subprocess spans nest under
helmfile.release.<verb> like sync/diff already did.

- scatterGatherReleases/iterateOnReleases/doWithReleaseSpan: do gains a
  context parameter (the release span context)
- ReleaseStatuses/DeleteReleases/TestReleases closures stamp
  HelmContext.Ctx from it
- integration test with a real execer (version-probe shim binary): the
  release's status subprocess nests under helmfile.release.status, same
  trace, with helm.subcommand=status

This also makes the otel.md claim ("upgrade, diff, delete, status, test
nested under the release span") fully accurate.

* feat(telemetry): OTel metrics — helm exec duration and release results (PR 4)

Implements the metrics increment of docs/proposals/otel-tracing.md
(#2767) on the same provider, switch, and resource as traces:

- pkg/telemetry/metrics.go: helmfile.helm.exec.duration histogram
  (subcommand, success) and helmfile.release.count counter (verb,
  result). Instruments come from the otel global meter, so recording at
  call sites is branch-free no-op when telemetry is disabled.
- Setup builds the resource once and installs both providers; reader
  selection delegates to autoexport (OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER: otlp |
  console | prometheus | none), the OTLP reader's interval honors
  OTEL_METRIC_EXPORT_INTERVAL (read by the SDK). Shutdown flushes both
  providers (errors.Join). StartCommandSpan now carries the meter
  provider across state transitions (fixes a nil-shutdown panic).
- helmexec: finishExecSpan records exec duration for helm binaries;
  state: endReleaseSpan counts release outcomes for sync/diff/delete/
  status/test/prepare (diff counted as success when no hard error).
- otlptest: recorder routes by OTLP path (/v1/traces vs /v1/metrics)
  and decodes metrics; new FindMetric helper.
- tests: metrics recorded as no-op when disabled, provider enabled with
  the none exporter, degradation on an invalid metrics exporter, and an
  integration assertion (status exec duration datapoint + one successful
  release.count) in the shim-based state test.

Verified with the console exporter: helmfile template emits
helmfile.helm.exec.duration per subcommand (version/dependency/
template) and helmfile.release.count{verb=prepare,result=success}=1.

* fix(telemetry): address review — redaction gaps, kubedog valve, phantom metrics

Addresses all Copilot review comments on #2769:

Security (span payloads):
- exec.args: positional arguments are additionally passed through
  helmexec.RedactedURL, so credentials embedded in chart/repository URLs
  (AddRepo, RegistryLogin, OCI refs) are masked exactly like log output
- release spans sanitize helmfile.chart the same way
- error statuses no longer embed raw errors (which contain rendered
  commands, arguments, and subprocess output): the command span, release
  spans, hook spans, and exec spans now use generic descriptions; the
  concrete exit code remains an attribute, and RecordError on the root
  span is dropped

Correctness:
- kubedog safety valve restored: execWithContext now attaches the
  per-release span into the runner's own context instead of replacing it,
  so trackHandle.Cancel() can interrupt a wedged helm again and app
  cancellation semantics stay exactly as before the PR
- diff release spans/metrics: real failures are recorded (exit code 2
  "changes detected" still counts as success); previously every diff was
  exported as successful
- skipped releases no longer emit phantom spans and inflate
  helmfile.release.count: iterateOnReleases callers pass a skip predicate
  (skipUndesired for status/test; delete deletes undesired releases and
  passes nil)
- Setup shuts down the already-constructed tracer provider (bounded) when
  the metrics provider fails, instead of abandoning its batch goroutine

Tests: URL redaction cases (masked/untouched), spanAttachedContext
preserves the runner cancellation chain while attaching the caller's
span, skipUndesired, and a failing-hook span asserting the generic
message.

* fix: lint — restore nolint placement and avoid nil context literal

- the skipUndesired insertion had displaced the // nolint: unparam
  directive off iterateOnReleases (helm param is intentionally unused
  there); also fixes a skipDesired/skipUndesired comment typo
- use a typed nil in TestSpanAttachedContext (staticcheck SA1012)

* fix(telemetry): address review round 2 — remote-ref redaction, wrapper helm binaries, hook release attribution

Addresses all 6 new review comments on #2769:

Security (remote references):
- new helmexec.RedactedRef sanitizes go-getter style references for
  telemetry: forced-form prefixes (git::, s3::) preserved, whole URL
  userinfo masked (usernames carry tokens too), credential-bearing query
  parameters masked using pkg/remote's heuristic (token/password/secret/
  key/signature). Applied to helmfile.file (command span), helmfile.path
  (discover_states), helmfile.chart (release spans), and exec.args —
  log-time RedactedURL is untouched so log output is unchanged

Correctness:
- wrapper helm binaries (--helm-binary custom names) are now classified
  as helm operations by an explicit context marker stamped in the execer
  funnel, instead of the executable-basename heuristic; the same
  classification gates helmfile.helm.exec.duration, so the metric no
  longer misses wrapper invocations (classifyExec)
- release-scoped hooks (presync/postsync/preuninstall/postuninstall/
  cleanup in the sync/delete/diff workers) now attach their helmfile.hook
  spans to the active helmfile.release.* span via a variadic parent on
  the trigger functions; global hooks keep the command context and all
  29 existing call sites compile unchanged; hook cancellation stays
  detached (WithoutCancel) as before
- signal-terminated runs (Shutdown with exitCode 130/143 and nil error)
  now mark the command span with error status, consistent with their
  nonzero exit code

Tests: RedactedRef table (forced forms, userinfo, s3/token query params,
untouched cases), classifyExec marker case, hookTraceContext parent
attribution + non-cancellability + fallback.

* fix(telemetry): address review round 3 — redaction corner cases, value runners

Addresses 5 of the 6 new review comments on #2769 (the sixth — an
unused strings import in exit_error.go — is a false positive: Indent
still uses strings.Split/Builder and the package compiles):

- RedactArgs read the previous token from the progressively redacted
  output, so {--set, --set-string, secret} leaked the secret
  (the masked value hid the following flag). Read the previous token
  from the original input, restoring the legacy contract for adjacent
  secret flags
- RedactedRef fails closed for malformed references: URL-like refs with
  invalid percent escapes export a fully redacted value, and an
  unparseable query is dropped entirely instead of exported verbatim
- ShellRunner has value receivers, so a ShellRunner VALUE satisfies the
  Runner API; the helm marker stamping and the per-release span
  attachment now handle both value and pointer forms (matching
  WithContext), so value-runner callers keep release nesting and the
  helm.exec classification/metric

Regression tests: adjacent secret flags (legacy + strict), malformed
URL-like ref, malformed query, value-runner marker + span attachment.

* fix(telemetry): stamp the helm marker on the stdin funnel too

execStdIn (registry login, repo add) called the runner directly, so
wrapper --helm-binary names were misclassified as os.exec and omitted
from helmfile.helm.exec.duration on that path. The marking now goes
through a shared markHelmRunner helper (value and pointer ShellRunner
forms) used by both execution funnels.

* fix(telemetry): redact helm's --kube-token in strict profile

Helm's global --kube-token carries a bearer token; both the
two-argument and inline forms are now masked in span exec.args
(legacy exit-error output is untouched, matching its historical
behavior).

* fix(telemetry): OTel metrics best-practice alignment

- helmfile.helm.exec.duration now declares explicit bucket boundaries
  tuned for seconds-scale helm invocations (5ms…600s); the SDK defaults
  are millisecond-oriented and lumped every sub-5s invocation — the
  common case — into the first bucket, defeating the histogram
- instruments are re-created under the installed provider with the
  instrumentation scope version stamped (Setup-time, race-free)
- helmfile.release.count declares the {release} curly-annotation unit
  per the metrics naming conventions

Tested end-to-end via the OTLP integration test: exported bounds are
the tuned set, units are asserted, and the scope carries the version.

Signed-off-by: yxxhero <aiopsclub@163.com>

* feat(telemetry): per-release duration metrics behind an opt-in switch

New helmfile.release.duration histogram (seconds, same tuned buckets)
with bounded dimensions by default (verb, result). Setting
HELMFILE_OTEL_METRICS_PER_RELEASE=true adds helmfile.release and
helmfile.namespace, answering "which release is slow" from dashboards:

- well-suited to bounded CI runs; long-lived centralized collection
  needs a backend capacity/TTL story (documented in docs/otel.md)
- per-release timing remains available in traces without the flag
- env read per call (release operations are low-frequency, and tests
  toggle it)

endReleaseSpan now takes the release and the operation start time; the
five worker-loop call sites pass them (doWithReleaseSpan, SyncReleases,
DeleteReleasesForSync, PrepareCharts, DiffReleases).

Verified end-to-end with the console exporter (default dims vs
per-release) and OTLP integration tests pinning both modes.

* refactor(telemetry): maintainability pass over the runner/metric plumbing

- StartCommandSpan copies the tracingState struct instead of enumerating
  fields by hand — that pattern dropped the meter provider once already
- the two value/pointer ShellRunner switches (helm marker, span
  attachment) are unified into one withRunnerCtx helper; the duplication
  caused two review rounds of value-form misses
- classifyExec derives the helm classification from the span name
  (helmExecSpanName constant) instead of returning a third parallel bool
- metrics: shared outcomeAttrs for the verb/result dimensions, and the
  bucket slice renamed to durationBuckets with a comment covering both
  histograms that use it

* refactor(telemetry): consolidate test env lists, trace bridges, and hook prep; sync the design doc

Maintainability:
- HermeticEnvVars is now exported from pkg/telemetry (the owner of the
  env surface) and used by both telemetry tests and otlptest — the two
  copies had already drifted once (HELMFILE_OTEL_METRICS_PER_RELEASE
  needed updating in both)
- kubedogTraceContext and hookTraceContext were the same concept written
  twice; unified into traceOnlyContext(parent...) in span.go

Readability:
- runHook's nested kubectl rewrite extracted into prepareKubectlHook
  with guard-clause structure

Accuracy (docs ↔ code, drifted over five review rounds):
- §4.4 now describes the implemented mechanism: the release span is
  INJECTED into the runner's own context (preserving the kubedog safety
  valve) rather than the runner context being replaced, and helm
  classification is marker-based for wrapper binaries
- §5 exec span rows list the actual attributes incl. URL/query masking
- §6 strict profile documents RedactedRef, --kube-token, and the
  adjacent-token guarantee

No behavior change; full -race suite green, lint clean.

* refactor(telemetry): drop the dead noop state, relocate skipUndesired, sync user-facing accuracy

- tracingState.noop was dead weight in the enabled state and a
  copy-surface in every transition; a single package-level
  noopTracerProvider now backs Tracer while disabled
- skipUndesired moved next to doWithReleaseSpan in span.go, its only
  conceptual home (span/metric suppression, not run plumbing)
- accuracy: the package doc, --otel-tracing flag help,
  experimental-features entry, and CHANGELOG now all say tracing AND
  metrics and list the third instrument (helmfile.release.duration with
  the HELMFILE_OTEL_METRICS_PER_RELEASE opt-in) — these had drifted
  when the metric was added; the PR description's metric table is
  updated to match as well

* refactor(telemetry): flatten Setup, name the prefix bound, dedupe test fake; fix instrument-count drift

Readability/maintainability:
- Setup drops from 56 to 39 lines: provider construction (including the
  shutdown-tracer-on-meter-failure recovery) moves to newProviders in
  exporter.go next to the constructors it composes
- refredact's magic 16 becomes maxForcedFormPrefix with a comment
- span_test's hand-rolled fakeRunner removed in favor of the existing
  mockRunner (same package)

Accuracy:
- "Two instruments" wording survived in docs/otel.md and the design
  proposal §7 after helmfile.release.duration was added; both now say
  three and mention the per-release opt-in

No behavior change; full -race suite green (except the pre-existing
network flake), lint clean.

* refactor(telemetry): co-locate span machinery, drop a dead export, fix docs nits

- the span plumbing helpers (markHelmExec, withRunnerCtx,
  markHelmRunner, spanAttachedContext) move from exec.go to span.go,
  next to the marker type and classifiers they serve — exec.go keeps
  only the funnel call sites
- otlptest.SpanNames was never used outside the package; unexported
- isHelmBinary's comment now states it is the FALLBACK classifier
  (funnel invocations are marker-classified), replacing the outdated
  "cosmetic distinction" framing from before the marker existed
- docs/otel.md: release-scoped hooks nest under their release span
  (added in review round 2, never documented)

### Added
- Add opt-in OpenTelemetry tracing and metrics (`--otel-tracing` / `HELMFILE_OTEL_TRACING`, experimental): command/state-load/release/hook spans with one span per helm subprocess, plus `helmfile.helm.exec.duration`, `helmfile.release.duration`, and `helmfile.release.count` metrics (per-release dimensions opt-in via `HELMFILE_OTEL_METRICS_PER_RELEASE`), exported via standard `OTEL_*` environment variables. See [docs/otel.md](docs/otel.md) and the [design proposal](docs/proposals/otel-tracing.md) (#2767)
- Add support for `conditionTemplate` and allow `condition` to be set directly to `true` or `false`.
- Add `--allow-failed-releases` global flag to continue preparing charts for the remaining releases when chart preparation fails for a release; failed releases are skipped and all failures are reported at the end (#2616)

The current increments emit the command-level root span, state-loading spans (discover/load/render/parse), one span per external process (helm invocations, hooks, plugin execs), per-hook spans, per-release spans for the sync/diff/delete/status/test/prepare paths, and metrics (`helmfile.helm.exec.duration`, `helmfile.release.duration`, `helmfile.release.count`; per-release dimensions opt-in via `HELMFILE_OTEL_METRICS_PER_RELEASE`) (the remaining loops are being added incrementally) — see [the design proposal](https://github.com/helmfile/helmfile/blob/main/docs/proposals/otel-tracing.md).
Unlike the features above, `otel-tracing` is **not** gated by `HELMFILE_EXPERIMENTAL`. It is off by default and enabled explicitly per run:
```bash
helmfile --otel-tracing -e production apply
# or
export HELMFILE_OTEL_TRACING=true
```
All exporter, sampler, and propagator settings come from the standard `OTEL_*` environment variables (e.g. `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT`, `OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER`). See [OpenTelemetry Tracing](otel.md) for details.

# OpenTelemetry Tracing
Helmfile can export [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/) traces of a run, which is especially useful in CI/CD: see where time is spent, which helm invocations dominate, how label selectors fan out, and what to target for improvement.
Tracing is **experimental** and **off by default**. It currently emits the command-level root span, state-loading spans (discover/load/render/parse), one span per external process (helm invocations, hooks, plugin execs), per-hook spans, and per-release spans for the sync/diff/delete/status/test/prepare paths.
## Enabling
```bash
helmfile --otel-tracing -e production -l tier=backend apply
```
or via environment variable (handy for CI):
```bash
export HELMFILE_OTEL_TRACING=true
helmfile sync
```
`--otel-tracing` overrides `HELMFILE_OTEL_TRACING` when specified.
## Configuration
Everything beyond the on/off switch uses the standard [OpenTelemetry environment variables](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/otel/configuration/sdk-environment-variables/); helmfile defines no telemetry-specific variables of its own.
| Variable | Default | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` | `http://localhost:4318` | OTLP endpoint; use `http://host:4317` for gRPC |
| `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL` | `http/protobuf` | or `grpc` |
| `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS` | — | e.g. `authorization=Bearer <token>` |
| `OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER` | `otlp` | `otlp` \| `console` \| `none` |
| `OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER` | `otlp` | `otlp` \| `console` \| `prometheus` \| `none` — see [Metrics](#metrics) |
| `OTEL_TRACES_SAMPLER` (+ `OTEL_TRACES_SAMPLER_ARG`) | `parentbased_always_on` | |
| `OTEL_SERVICE_NAME` | `helmfile` | |
| `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES` | — | e.g. `cicd.pipeline=deploy,cicd.run_id=4821` |
| `OTEL_PROPAGATORS` | `tracecontext,baggage` | |
| `OTEL_SDK_DISABLED` | `false` | standard kill switch |
HTTP proxies (`HTTPS_PROXY`/`HTTP_PROXY`) are honored automatically by the Go runtime.
## Quick start without a collector
To inspect what would be exported, print spans as JSON on stdout:
```bash
OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER=console helmfile --otel-tracing -l name=myrelease template
```
## Quick start with Jaeger
```bash
docker run --rm -p 16686:16686 -p 4318:4318 jaegertracing/all-in-one:latest
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:4318 \
helmfile --otel-tracing -e production apply
# Open http://localhost:16686 and pick service "helmfile"
```
## What gets traced
The root span is named after the command (`helmfile apply`, `helmfile sync`, ...) and carries `helmfile.command`, `helmfile.file`, `helmfile.environment`, and `helmfile.selectors` attributes, plus `helmfile.exit_code` and the error (if any) at the end.
Every external process helmfile starts — each helm invocation, hook command, and plugin exec — gets its own span nested under the command span: `helm.exec` (with `helm.subcommand`) for helm binaries, `os.exec` otherwise, both carrying `exec.command`, redacted `exec.args`, and `exec.exit_code` on failure.
State loading is traced too: `helmfile.discover_states`, one `helmfile.load` per state file (including nested helmfiles), with `helmfile.render` and `helmfile.parse` children — rendering is frequently the hidden time sink. Each hook execution produces a `helmfile.hook` span (with `hook.event` and `hook.name`) that its subprocess span nests under — and release-scoped hooks (presync/postsync & co. within sync/diff/delete) nest under their release's span, keeping full release attribution.
Per-release spans (`helmfile.release.sync` / `.diff` / `.delete` / `.status` / `.test` / `.prepare`) carry the release name, namespace, chart, and labels, and nest under the state-file load span — with the release's helm subprocesses (upgrade, diff, delete, status, test) nested under the release span. The remaining loops (flag preparation, template/lint/unittest) are being added incrementally; see [the design proposal](proposals/otel-tracing.md) for the full taxonomy.
Secret-bearing command arguments (`--set`, `--set-file`, `--username`, `--password`, ...) are never recorded in span attributes — they are masked before export.
## Metrics
Tracing and metrics share the same switch and resource; metrics are exported through the standard metrics environment variables:
| Variable | Default | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER` | `otlp` | `otlp` \| `console` \| `prometheus` \| `none` |
| `OTEL_METRIC_EXPORT_INTERVAL` | `60000` (ms) | periodic export interval; the final flush happens at exit |
Three instruments are emitted:
| Metric | Type | Attributes |
|---|---|---|
| `helmfile.helm.exec.duration` | histogram (seconds, buckets tuned for 5ms–600s helm invocations) | `subcommand`, `success` |
| `helmfile.release.duration` | histogram (seconds, same buckets) | `verb`, `result` — plus `helmfile.release` and `helmfile.namespace` when per-release metrics are enabled (below) |
| `helmfile.release.count` | counter (unit `{release}`) | `verb` (sync/diff/delete/status/test/prepare), `result` (success/error) |
### Per-release metrics (opt-in, high cardinality)
By default metric dimensions are bounded enumerations — release names never appear, so time-series count stays constant regardless of fleet size. If you need per-release durations on dashboards, opt in:
```bash
HELMFILE_OTEL_METRICS_PER_RELEASE=true helmfile --otel-tracing sync
```
This adds `helmfile.release` and `helmfile.namespace` to `helmfile.release.duration`. Time-series count then scales with your release fleet: well-suited to bounded CI runs, but long-lived centralized collection needs a backend capacity/TTL story. (Per-release timing is always available in traces, without this flag.)
Both dimensions are bounded enumerations — never release names — so metric cardinality stays constant regardless of fleet size. The instrumentation scope (`helmfile`) carries the helmfile version.
Inspect them without a collector with `OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER=console`.
## CI trace correlation
If your CI system injects a W3C `TRACEPARENT` environment variable into jobs, helmfile joins that trace automatically, so helmfile spans appear inside your pipeline's trace.
## Troubleshooting
- **No spans arrive**: check `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT`/protocol match your collector (4318 for `http/protobuf`, 4317 for `grpc`); verify with `OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER=console`.
- **Tracing breaks nothing**: exporter/sampler misconfiguration and export failures never fail a helmfile run; at worst you get no spans.
- **Still stuck?** Set `OTEL_SDK_DISABLED=false` explicitly and rerun with `--log-level debug`.

# Proposal: OpenTelemetry Tracing Support
- **Issue**: [#2767 — feat-request: OpenTelemetry (tracing) support](https://github.com/helmfile/helmfile/issues/2767)
- **Status**: Draft
- **Origin discussion**: [#2758](https://github.com/helmfile/helmfile/discussions/2758)
## 1. Summary
Add opt-in OpenTelemetry (OTel) distributed tracing to helmfile. When enabled, a helmfile
run produces a trace whose spans cover the full execution timeline — state-file discovery,
template rendering, per-release operations, hooks, and every helm subprocess helmfile itself
starts — exported via OTLP to any OTel-compatible backend (Jaeger, Tempo, Zipkin,
Honeycomb, Datadog, Grafana Cloud, cloud-vendor collectors, ...).
This directly serves the motivating use case from CI/CD: *see where time is spent, what runs
most often (label selectors), and what to target for improvement* — the same capability
Terragrunt ships today ([Terragrunt OTel docs](https://docs.terragrunt.com/troubleshooting/open-telemetry/)).
When disabled (the default), behavior and performance are identical to today: a no-op tracer
provider, no goroutines, no network, no exported spans (explicit guarantees in §7).
### Example resulting trace
```
helmfile sync file=helmfile.yaml env=production (root, ~2m)
├─ helmfile.discover_states (~5ms)
├─ helmfile.load file=helmfile.yaml (~800ms)
│ ├─ helmfile.render pass=values (~400ms)
│ └─ helmfile.parse (~50ms)
├─ helmfile.repos.update (~4s)
│ └─ helm.exec subcommand="repo update" (~4s)
├─ helmfile.release.prepare release=gateway chart=gateway (~9s)
│ └─ helm.exec subcommand="dependency build" (~8s)
├─ helmfile.release.sync release=envoy ns=ingress (~21s)
│ ├─ helmfile.hook event=presync (~2s)
│ │ └─ os.exec command="./migrate.sh" (~2s)
│ ├─ helm.exec subcommand="upgrade --install envoy ..." (~18s)
│ └─ helmfile.hook event=postsync (~1s)
├─ helmfile.release.sync release=api ns=apps (~35s)
└─ helmfile.wait release=api (kubedog) (~30s)
```
## 2. Goals and non-goals
### Goals
1. **Opt-in, zero-cost-when-off**: tracing disabled by default; no measurable overhead or
behavior change when not requested.
2. **Standard OTLP export** configured through the [OTel environment-variable
specification](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/otel/configuration/sdk-environment-variables/)
— no helmfile-specific duplicate knobs for endpoints/protocols/headers/sampling.
3. **Meaningful hierarchy**: spans nest (command → state file → release → hook/subprocess)
so the critical path of a sync/apply is visible at a glance — *including* the kubedog and
hook paths, which today run on detached contexts (§4.3).
4. **Safe by default**: span attributes never contain secret-bearing values
(`--set` values, registry credentials, secret refs).
5. **CI-friendly**: W3C `tracecontext` propagation so a CI system that injects
`TRACEPARENT` gets spans correlated into its own trace.
### Non-goals (for the initial implementation)
- OTel **metrics** and **log export** (the SDK setup leaves room; see §12 for follow-ups).
- Tracing *inside* the helm binary or cluster-side (helm/chart hooks are separate processes;
context injection into them is an open question, §14).
- Fixing the pre-existing cancellation gaps discovered during design (kubedog path rooted at
`context.Background()`, hooks at `context.TODO()` — §4.3). This proposal bridges them for
*trace context only*, with byte-identical cancellation semantics; semantic fixes are
reported separately.
- Any helmfile-config-file surface (`helmfile.yaml`) for telemetry — CLI flags + env vars only,
matching how observability tooling is usually injected by the platform, not the state author.
## 3. User-facing design
### 3.1 Activation
| Mechanism | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `--otel-tracing` (persistent flag) | `false` | Enable tracing for this run |
| `HELMFILE_OTEL_TRACING=true` (env) | `false` | Same, via environment (CI-friendly) |
The feature ships as **experimental** initially and is listed in
`docs/experimental-features.md` (see §11 Rollout). We do *not* require
`HELMFILE_EXPERIMENTAL=otel-tracing`: tracing is purely additive, invisible when off, and
gating it twice would complicate CI adoption. The experimental label sets stability
expectations only. (Note: this differs from the current entries in that document, which are
gated by `HELMFILE_EXPERIMENTAL`; the entry will say so explicitly.)
### 3.2 Exporter & SDK configuration — standard OTel env vars only
When `--otel-tracing` is set, helmfile initializes the OTel SDK honoring the standard
environment variables. Exporter selection is delegated to
`go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/exporters/autoexport` (already in the module graph, §8) rather
than hand-rolled, so helmfile maintains no exporter-construction code of its own:
| Variable | Default in helmfile | Read by | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` | `http://localhost:4318` | otlp client (SDK) | default follows the protocol: 4318 with `http/protobuf` (below), 4317 with `grpc` |
| `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL` / `..._TRACES_PROTOCOL` | `http/protobuf` | autoexport | `grpc`, `http/protobuf` (traces-specific var wins; `http/json` is not supported by autoexport traces in v0.67.0) |
| `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS` / `..._TRACES_HEADERS` | — | otlp client (SDK) | e.g. collector auth tokens |
| `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TIMEOUT` / `..._TRACES_TIMEOUT` | `10s` | otlp client (SDK) | per-export timeout |
| `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_INSECURE` | per endpoint scheme | otlp client (SDK) | plaintext export for local collectors |
| `OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER` | `otlp` | autoexport | `otlp` \| `console` \| `none` (verified against autoexport v0.67.0; more values possible via `RegisterSpanExporter`) |
| `OTEL_TRACES_SAMPLER` (+`..._ARG`) | `parentbased_always_on` | our wrapper | standard samplers (the Go SDK core does not parse this env itself) |
| `OTEL_SERVICE_NAME` | `helmfile` | SDK resource | service identity (`resource` `WithFromEnv`; verified in sdk v1.44.0 `resource/env.go`) |
| `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES` | — | SDK resource | e.g. `deployment.environment=ci,cicd.pipeline=release` (same verified reader) |
| `OTEL_PROPAGATORS` | `tracecontext,baggage` | our wrapper | extract parent from CI-injected `TRACEPARENT` (SDK core does not parse this env either) |
| `OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER` | `otlp` | autoexport (metrics) | `otlp` \| `console` \| `prometheus` \| `none` — delivered in PR 4 |
| `OTEL_METRIC_EXPORT_INTERVAL` | `60000` (ms) | SDK metric reader | periodic export interval; final flush happens at exit |
| `OTEL_SDK_DISABLED` | `false` | our wrapper | standard kill switch (the Go SDK does not read this one itself) |
`console` (JSON spans on **stdout**, via `stdouttrace`) exists for local debugging without a
collector — note stdout, so it does not interleave with helmfile's stderr logs;
`none` produces no export (used by tests and for pure-propagation setups).
HTTP proxies (`HTTPS_PROXY`/`HTTP_PROXY`) are honored automatically by the Go HTTP/gRPC
stacks — no helmfile-specific proxy configuration.
Minimal CI example:
```bash
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT="https://otel.example.com"
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS="authorization=Bearer ${OTEL_TOKEN}"
export OTEL_SERVICE_NAME="helmfile-ci"
export OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES="cicd.pipeline=deploy,cicd.run_id=4821"
helmfile --otel-tracing -e production -l tier=backend apply
```
## 4. Architecture
### 4.1 New package `pkg/telemetry`
Single, dependency-light façade over the OTel SDK. No other package imports OTel SDK
exporters directly.
```
pkg/telemetry/
├── telemetry.go // Setup/Shutdown lifecycle, CommandContext(), Tracer(name)
├── exporter.go // thin autoexport wiring + propagators (no exporter construction)
└── telemetry_test.go
```
Public surface sketch:
```go
package telemetry
type Options struct {
Enabled bool
Version string // helmfile version, recorded as service.version
Logger *zap.SugaredLogger // for one-line diagnostics, never span data
}
// Setup initializes the global provider. Idempotent; a no-op when
// opts.Enabled is false. Exporter/sampler misconfiguration and
// OTEL_SDK_DISABLED=true degrade to disabled with a warning — telemetry
// problems never fail a helmfile run.
func Setup(ctx context.Context, opts Options)
// StartCommandSpan starts the root span for one command invocation, joins a
// remote parent from TRACEPARENT/TRACESTATE/BAGGAGE env vars, and makes its
// context the one returned by CommandContext. No-op when disabled.
func StartCommandSpan(command string, attrs ...attribute.KeyValue)
// CommandContext returns the root command span's context, or
// context.Background() when telemetry is disabled. Single source of truth
// for deriving App.ctx.
func CommandContext() context.Context
// Tracer returns a tracer for the given instrumentation scope. Never nil:
// returns the OTel no-op tracer when telemetry is disabled, so callers need
// no `if enabled` branches. Sanctioned scopes: ScopeHelmfile, ScopeHelm.
func Tracer(name string) trace.Tracer
// Shutdown ends the command span (recording runErr and exitCode), flushes
// buffered spans bounded by ctx, and reverts to disabled. Idempotent and
// nil-safe (safe before Setup, twice, or on a signal that raced Setup).
// ShutdownTimeout is the recommended flush bound.
func Shutdown(ctx context.Context, runErr error, exitCode int) error
```
Design constraints for maintainability:
- **No domain knowledge in this package.** Span-attribute redaction rules live with the
existing redaction code in `pkg/helmexec` (§6); telemetry only consumes the result.
A telemetry package that knows about `--set` semantics would be a layering violation.
- Sanctioned instrumentation scopes are only `"helmfile"` (app/state layer) and `"helm"`
(helmexec layer), documented in `telemetry.go`.
### 4.2 Lifecycle
```
main.go cmd/root.go
────── ───────────
rootCmd.Execute() ─────────────► PersistentPreRunE:
logger setup (existing)
telemetry.Setup(ctx, opts) ← provider + exporters
start root span "helmfile <sub>"
RunE / subcommand execution … (child spans attach via context)
errChan <- Execute()
┌────────────────────────────────┐
shutdown: │ end root span (status=error on │
rootSpan.End() │ failure, exit code attr) │
provider.Shutdown(ctx 5s) ◄─────┘ │
```
- `PersistentPreRunE` (`cmd/root.go`) is the natural init point: it already centralizes
logger construction from `GlobalOptions`, and receives the `*cobra.Command`, so
`c.Name()` gives the root span name (`helmfile sync`, ...).
- **`App.ctx` derivation requires no signature changes.** `app.New(conf)` is called from
every subcommand (`cmd/*.go`, 22 call sites) and currently roots its context at
`context.Background()` (`pkg/app/app.go`). Instead of threading a parameter through all
callers, `app.New` replaces that single `context.Background()` with
`telemetry.CommandContext()` — Background-identical when tracing is off, span-rooted
when on. Cancellation is unaffected (`context.WithCancel` on either parent behaves the
same for SIGINT handling in `main.go`).
- **Shutdown must run even on failure and on signals.** The end of
`rootCmd.Execute()` in `main.go` (both the `errChan` and the `SIGINT`/`SIGTERM` paths;
on the error path *before* `errors.HandleExitCoder`, which terminates via `OsExiter`,
and on the signal path after `app.CleanWaitGroup.Wait()` and *before*
`os.Exit(130/143)`) calls the returned shutdown func with a 5s-timeout context so buffered
spans are flushed. The stored shutdown must be nil-safe — a signal arriving before
`PersistentPreRunE` completed (i.e. before `Setup`) must be a no-op, never a panic. This
is the one behavior that is easy to get wrong and is explicitly tested (§10).
- Setup failures (e.g. unusable exporter configuration) are logged as a warning and
**do not fail the run** — telemetry must never break deployments. Export errors after
startup surface only through OTel's own error handler, wired to the zap logger.
### 4.3 Verified context-reality map (as of this writing)
All claims below were checked against the code; line numbers are anchors for reviewers:
| Path | Today | Consequence for tracing |
|---|---|---|
| cmd → app | `app.New` roots at `context.Background()`; `ctx, Cancel = WithCancel(ctx)` (`pkg/app/app.go`, `New`) | span must be injected here (§4.2) |
| app → all helm execs | `getHelm()` constructs the `ShellRunner` with `Ctx: a.ctx` (`pkg/app/app.go:1008`); the resulting `execer` is **cached per (helm binary, kube-context)** in `a.helms` and shared by all releases and workers (`pkg/app/app.go:982–1021`) | once `App.ctx` is span-rooted, every non-kubedog helm call nests automatically, with **zero changes** to `getHelm`. The shared-instance cache is also why per-release contexts must ride per-call parameters, never mutation of the shared execer |
| kubedog path (sync with tracking) | `startBackgroundKubedogTracking(gocontext.Background(), …)` (`pkg/state/state.go:1294`) → `bufferHelmOutput` derives `releaseCtx := context.WithCancel(ctx)` and swaps it in via `execer.WithContext(releaseCtx)` (`pkg/state/helmx.go:363–365`) | helm execs on this path run on a **Background-rooted** context; runner-level spans would become **orphan traces**. Bridged in §4.4 |
| hooks | both `event.Bus` constructions (`triggerGlobalReleaseEvent`, `triggerReleaseEvent`, `pkg/state/state.go:3666, 3703`) duplicate the same literal and pass **no** `Runner`, so the default kicks in: `ShellRunner{Dir: bus.BasePath, Logger: bus.Logger, Ctx: goContext.TODO()}` with an inline comment acknowledging it should be `app.Ctx` (`pkg/event/bus.go:61–71`) | hook execs are detached; spans would be orphans. Bridged in §4.4 |
| non-kubedog release workers | release loops (`SyncReleases` etc., `pkg/state/state.go:1212 ff.`) call the shared `helmexec.Interface` with a `HelmContext` (`pkg/helmexec/context.go`) that carries **no go-context** | per-release spans need the §4.4 mechanism |
| subprocess funnel | exactly three `ShellRunner` construction sites exist (verified exhaustive): `pkg/app/app.go:129` (`Init`, `Ctx: a.ctx`), `pkg/app/app.go:1006` (`getHelm`, `Ctx: a.ctx`), and the hooks default (`pkg/event/bus.go:62`, `Ctx: TODO` — §4.4 bridge). Every external process helmfile itself starts goes through `Execute`/`ExecuteStdIn` (`pkg/helmexec/runner.go`); helm commands additionally funnel through `execer.exec()` (`pkg/helmexec/exec.go:1207`). Exception: kustomize executes inside the chartify library, outside this funnel (§12) | one instrumentation point covers everything except chartify-internal execs; spans nest wherever the runner's `Ctx` carries a span |
Two pre-existing gaps surfaced by this analysis — kubedog tracking not being cancellable via
`App.ctx`, and hooks likewise — are **out of scope** for this proposal beyond trace-context
bridging (§4.4), because fixing their *cancellation* semantics would be a behavior change.
They should be reported as separate issues.
### 4.4 Context plan
**Phase 1 (no state-package changes):**
1. Root span ctx via `telemetry.CommandContext()` → `app.New` (§4.2). Every `a.ctx`-rooted
exec nests. Discover/load/render spans in `pkg/app` also need no signature changes:
the `helmfile.load` span starts inside `loadDesiredStateFromYamlWithBaseDir`
(`pkg/app/app.go:932`) with `a.ctx` as parent — its two call sites (app.go:1045 and
the nested-helmfile path at app.go:1280) are thereby both covered — and `helmfile.render`
children parent through an unexported `ctx` field on the `desiredStateLoader` struct
(`pkg/app/desired_state_file_loader.go:29`), set once at its single construction site
(`pkg/app/app.go:938`). Zero method-signature changes, zero exported API.
2. Runner-level spans in `ShellRunner.Execute`/`ExecuteStdIn` nest for all non-kubedog,
non-hook execs automatically.
3. **Orphan-bridge for kubedog and hooks, with identical cancellation semantics:**
- `pkg/state/state.go:1294`: pass `context.WithoutCancel(telemetry.CommandContext())`
instead of `gocontext.Background()`. `WithoutCancel` preserves values (the span)
while dropping cancellation — and `Background` never carried cancellation anyway, so
SIGINT/timeout behavior is **bit-for-bit unchanged**; only trace context is added.
(Phase 1 uses the root span from `telemetry.CommandContext()`, which requires no new
plumbing in `pkg/state`; phase 2 re-parents under the per-release `st.traceCtx`.)
- `pkg/event/bus.go`: add an optional `Ctx context.Context` field to `Bus`; the default
runner construction uses `bus.Ctx` when set, `TODO` when nil (so behavior is unchanged
for any nil-Ctx caller). The two construction sites in `pkg/state/state.go:3666, 3703`
set it from the same span-rooted, cancel-stripped context. `Dir`/`Logger` wiring of
the default runner is untouched.
**Phase 2 (per-release spans, still zero changes to `helmexec.Interface` signatures):**
- Start `helmfile.release.<verb>` spans in the seven release-worker loops — six
`scatterGather` sites in `pkg/state/state.go` (`prepareSyncReleases`:894,
`DeleteReleasesForSync`:1135, `SyncReleases`:1241, `PrepareCharts`:2328,
`prepareDiffReleases`:3068, `DiffReleases`:3266) plus `iterateOnReleases`
(`pkg/state/state_run.go:59`, the shared loop behind test/lint/unittest-style
iteration) — all following the same `scatterGather` shape. (An eighth `scatterGather`
sites, `scatterGatherEnvSecretFiles` at `pkg/state/create.go:486`, decrypts environment
secrets rather than processing releases; an optional `helmfile.env_secrets` span there
is a follow-up in the spirit of §4.5 item 6.)
- Release spans are rooted via a new unexported `traceCtx` field on `HelmState`, exposed
through a purely additive exported setter called by `pkg/app` right after state
creation. (Why a setter and not a constructor parameter: `st.logger` is injected through
`state.NewCreator` — a 9-positional-parameter exported function,
`pkg/state/create.go:80` — so threading a context through it would churn a public
signature used by the app loader; an additive setter touches no existing signature and
defaults to nil, i.e. current behavior.)
- Carry the span context per call by adding an optional `Ctx context.Context` field to
`HelmContext` (`pkg/helmexec/context.go`), stamped **inside** `createHelmContext`
(`pkg/state/state.go:3168`) so all eight call sites (state.go:1007, 1026, 1147, 1261,
3034, 3184, 3358, 3374) inherit it without per-call-site edits.
- Funnel it inside `helmexec`: the `execer` methods that take a `HelmContext` pass its
`Ctx` to `execWithContext`, which **injects the release span into the runner's own
context** (`trace.ContextWithSpan`) rather than replacing it — cancellation authority
stays with the runner (including the kubedog safety valve installed via
`WithContext`), which a naive context replacement would have overridden. A nil `Ctx`
behaves exactly like the plain funnel. Helm-vs-other classification comes from an
explicit marker stamped in the execer funnels (`withRunnerCtx`/`markHelmRunner`,
value and pointer runner forms), not from the executable basename — so wrapper
`--helm-binary` names classify correctly. The `exectest.Helm` fake is unaffected: app
tests pre-seed `App.helms` with it (`pkg/app/app_template_test.go:115–116`), so it
replaces the whole `helmexec.Interface` and bypasses `execer` internals entirely.
*Why per-call threading rather than the existing `WithContext` clone: `WithContext`
(`pkg/helmexec/exec.go:251`) is suited to whole-execution substitution (kubedog path),
but release workers share one cached execer across concurrent workers (§4.3), so a
per-release context must travel with the per-release `HelmContext` parameter.*
### 4.5 Instrumentation points (in priority order)
1. **`helmexec.ShellRunner.Execute` / `ExecuteStdIn`** (`pkg/helmexec/runner.go`) — the single
choke point for *every* external process started by helmfile itself: helm invocations,
hooks, and helmfile plugin execs. One span per subprocess: name `helm.exec` when `cmd`
is the helm binary, else `os.exec`. The one exception is kustomize, which runs inside
the `github.com/helmfile/chartify` library (see §5/§12). This instrumentation alone
delivers most of the requested value (where does time go).
2. **Root command span** — `cmd/root.go` (see §4.2).
3. **State loading** — span `helmfile.load` started inside
`loadDesiredStateFromYamlWithBaseDir` (`pkg/app/app.go:932`, covering both callers
incl. nested helmfiles), with `helmfile.render`/`helmfile.parse` children in
`two_pass_renderer.go` parented via the loader-struct `ctx` field (§4.4 step 1) —
rendering is frequently the hidden time sink.
4. **Per-release operations** — release loops in `pkg/state/state.go` (phase 2, §4.4).
5. **Hooks** — `pkg/event/bus.go` `Trigger` (`pkg/event/bus.go:56`): span `helmfile.hook`
with `hook.event`, `hook.name` attributes; naturally parents the `os.exec` span of the
hook command once the §4.4 bridge is in place.
6. **(Phase 2)** kubedog wait spans, vals/remote secret resolution, `helm repo` retry loops.
## 5. Span taxonomy
| Span name | Attributes (beyond standard `otel.*`) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `helmfile <subcommand>` (root) | `helmfile.command`, `helmfile.file`, `helmfile.environment`, `helmfile.selectors`, `helmfile.exit_code` | `error` status + recorded error on failure. Service identity (`service.name`, `service.version`) lives on the OTel resource, not on spans |
| `helmfile.discover_states` | `helmfile.path` | `findDesiredStateFiles` (`pkg/app/app.go:1642`) |
| `helmfile.load` | `helmfile.state_file` | one per file in `helmfile.d`, nested helmfiles |
| `helmfile.render` | `helmfile.state_file`, `helmfile.pass`=`values`\|`main` | two-pass rendering (`pkg/app/two_pass_renderer.go`) |
| `helmfile.repos.update` | — | wraps `helm repo update` |
| `helmfile.release.prepare` | `helmfile.release`, `helmfile.namespace`, `helmfile.chart`, `helmfile.chart_version` | chart pull/build/registry login |
| `helmfile.release.sync` / `.diff` / `.template` / `.delete` / `.test` / `.lint` / `.unittest` | same as above + `helmfile.labels` | one per selected release (phase 2) |
| `helmfile.hook` | `hook.event` (presync/…), `hook.name` | |
| `helm.exec` / `os.exec` | `exec.command`, `exec.args` (strict-redacted, plus URL userinfo/query masking via `RedactedRef`), `exec.redacted`, `exec.exit_code` (on failure), `helm.subcommand` (helm only) | one per external process; helm classification is marker-based (wrapper binaries included); release identity comes from the parent release span. Hooks, kustomize (invisible, §12), plugin execs land here too |
Attribute values are strings/ints only; no structured payloads, no output capture in spans
(output already flows through logs).
## 6. Security and redaction
Traces leave the machine they run on. Ground rules, checked against what exists today:
1. **The existing redaction is not sufficient on its own.** The exit-error path
(`pkg/helmexec/exit_error.go:8–20`) redacts only the argument *following* a flag whose
name starts with `--set` (two-argument form). It does not cover the single-argument
`--set=key=value` form, nor credential-bearing flags such as `--username` or
`--password`. (Registry passwords themselves already travel via stdin —
`--password-stdin`, `pkg/helmexec/exec.go` `RegistryLogin` — but usernames appear in
args.) Therefore:
2. **One shared redaction implementation, two profiles — spans get the strict superset
without touching existing error output.** Extract the exit-error redaction into an
exported helper in `pkg/helmexec` (keeping it in the domain that owns flag semantics)
with two profiles:
- `legacy`: byte-identical to today's exit-error behavior — the current goldens in
`pkg/helmexec/exit_error_test.go` (which assert the exact `--set` / `*** STRIP ***`
shape) keep passing unchanged. The exit-error path switches to this profile, so
error messages are unchanged.
- `strict`: the superset required for spans — all `--set*` forms including
`--set=k=v`, plus `--username`, `--password`, `--key-file`,
`--kube-token`, ...; positional arguments are additionally passed through
`helmexec.RedactedRef`, which masks go-getter forced forms (`git::`,
`s3::`), whole URL userinfo, and credential-bearing query parameters,
failing closed for malformed references. The previous token is always
read from the original input so adjacent secret flags cannot leak.
Both profiles are the same code path, so the span view is guaranteed at least as
redacted as the error view. *Unifying* the two profiles (i.e. tightening exit-error
messages too) would change observable output and is deliberately deferred to a
separate follow-up PR with its own test updates — this proposal changes no existing
message content.
3. **Never record**: `vals://`-resolved values, environment variables, exporter headers.
`OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS` is the only place collector credentials live; helmfile
never logs it.
4. Chart/repo URLs go through the existing `redactedURL` (`pkg/helmexec/exec.go:184`) —
credentials embedded in URLs are masked.
5. Release *names*, namespaces, chart names, and label selectors are assumed non-secret
(consistent with existing helmfile log output).
6. Note for reviewers: `execer.exec` today logs the *full unredacted* command line at Debug
level (`pkg/helmexec/exec.go:1218`). Span attributes deliberately do **not** mirror that
log line; §10 pins this with a redaction test.
## 7. Performance and zero-impact guarantees
**When disabled (the default):**
- `telemetry.Tracer` returns the OTel no-op tracer. No-op span start/end is a few ns and
allocation-free; provider setup, exporters, and the batch worker goroutine never start.
- `telemetry.CommandContext()` returns `context.Background()`; `app.New` behaves exactly as
today. No flag checks appear in hot loops.
**When enabled:**
- Standard SDK BatchSpanProcessor (5s interval / 512-span batches); metrics
use a periodic reader (default 60s, `OTEL_METRIC_EXPORT_INTERVAL`) with a
final flush at exit. Three instruments exist — `helmfile.helm.exec.duration`,
`helmfile.release.duration`, and `helmfile.release.count` — so metric
cardinality stays tiny by default (bounded by subcommands and verbs, never
by release names); `HELMFILE_OTEL_METRICS_PER_RELEASE` opts into
name/namespace dimensions for bounded CI runs. A
`sync --concurrency=16` run produces at most one span per helm invocation plus one per
release — hundreds, not tens of thousands. Export happens off the critical path; the
only synchronous cost is the ≤5s shutdown flush, paid only when tracing is on.
- SDK spans and exporters are goroutine-safe; helmfile's parallel release workers need no
extra locking.
**Functional-impact checklist (the review criteria for every PR in §11):**
1. No `helmexec.Interface` signature changes in any phase; `getHelm()` unchanged.
2. `app.New` changes one line (`Background()` → `telemetry.CommandContext()`), no call-site
churn; cancellation semantics identical.
3. Kubedog and hook bridging uses `context.WithoutCancel`, which drops cancellation and
keeps values — the swapped-out parents (`Background`/`TODO`) never propagated
cancellation either, so SIGINT/timeout behavior is unchanged.
4. Telemetry setup or export failures never fail or slow the run (warning log only, export
off the critical path).
5. All pre-existing behavior, including the known cancellation gaps of §4.3 and the exact
content of exit-error messages (legacy redaction profile, §6.2), is preserved
bit-for-bit; gap fixes and redaction unification are out of scope and filed separately.
## 8. Dependency impact
The OTel libraries are **already in the module graph as indirect dependencies**, required
transitively by existing direct dependencies (`helm.sh/helm/v4` v4.2.4 requires
`go.opentelemetry.io/otel` v1.44.0; helm v3 and `helmfile/vals` also carry otel modules).
Every module this proposal would import — `otel`, `otel/trace`, `otel/sdk`,
`otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace/otlptracegrpc`, `.../otlptracehttp`,
`otel/exporters/stdout/stdouttrace`, and `contrib/exporters/autoexport` v0.67.0 — is
already pinned in `go.sum` (verified), so promoting them to direct requires brings
**zero new modules to download**. No conflict with existing OTel usage in the process:
none of helmfile's direct dependencies registers OTel globals in library code — verified
no `SetTracerProvider` call sites under helm v3/v4 `pkg/`, vals, or chartify (helm's own
OTel wiring, where present, lives in its CLI layer, not the libraries helmfile imports).
Choosing `autoexport` (§3.2) also means
helmfile maintains no exporter-construction code; its `RegisterSpanExporter` hook covers
any future backend (e.g. zipkin) without helmfile changes. Note the resulting defaults:
`http/protobuf` on `localhost:4318` unless the user overrides the protocol/endpoint.
## 9. Code layout of the change
```
cmd/root.go // --otel-tracing flag, Setup call, root span, shutdown handoff
main.go // shutdown on both exit and signal paths
pkg/config/global.go // OtelTracing option (+ accessor on GlobalImpl)
pkg/envvar/const.go // OtelTracing = "HELMFILE_OTEL_TRACING"
pkg/telemetry/… // new package (§4.1)
pkg/app/app.go // app.New: Background() → telemetry.CommandContext(); helmfile.load span; loader ctx wiring
pkg/app/desired_state_file_loader.go // ctx field on the unexported desiredStateLoader struct (render-span parent)
pkg/app/two_pass_renderer.go // helmfile.render/helmfile.parse spans
pkg/helmexec/runner.go // helm.exec / os.exec spans (single choke point)
pkg/helmexec/redact.go // shared args redaction, legacy+strict profiles (extracted from exit_error.go)
pkg/helmexec/exit_error.go // calls shared helper with legacy profile (output byte-identical)
pkg/helmexec/context.go // HelmContext.Ctx field (phase 2)
pkg/helmexec/exec.go // execCtx funnel beside exec/execStdIn (phase 2)
pkg/state/state.go // WithoutCancel bridges (kubedog call site + both event.Bus constructions); release spans (phase 2)
pkg/state/helmx.go // (no change — bridge happens at its caller)
pkg/event/bus.go // optional Ctx field consumed by the default runner
docs/experimental-features.md // feature entry → promoted out when stable
docs/otel.md // user guide (config, backends, CI recipes, sample trace)
```
## 10. Testing strategy
1. **Unit (`pkg/telemetry`)**: table-driven tests for enabled/disabled no-op guarantees,
`CommandContext()` identity, default resource attributes (`service.name=helmfile`,
`service.version` from `pkg/app/version`), and propagator extraction of `TRACEPARENT`.
Global state reset via `export_test.go` so tests stay isolated.
2. **Redaction (`pkg/helmexec`)**: table-driven tests for both profiles — `legacy` pinned
byte-identical by the existing `exit_error_test.go` goldens; `strict` covering `--set v`
and `--set=k=v`, `--set-string`/`--set-file`/`--set-json`, `--username`/`--password`,
benign flags untouched. Pins §6.6.
3. **Span-hierarchy golden tests**: drive `App` with the existing fake helm
(`pkg/exectest/helm.go`, pre-seeded into `App.helms` the way current app tests do) and
an in-memory exporter; assert the span tree (names, parent
links, order) for `template`/`sync` over a small fixture — catches context-plumbing
regressions. Includes an **orphan-span regression test** for the kubedog and hook paths
(§4.3): every exported span must have the root span as an ancestor.
4. **OTLP end-to-end**: an `httptest` server speaking OTLP/HTTP+protobuf, pointed at by
`OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT`; decode exported payloads (`go.opentelemetry.io/proto/otlp`,
already in the graph) and assert count/attributes. Runs in unit-test context — no
external collector needed in CI.
5. **Lifecycle tests**: shutdown flushes on command failure and on SIGINT, so spans never
vanish on failing deploys — the case users care about most. (Requires extracting
`main.go`'s signal/select/exit logic into a small pure function; the extraction itself
is behavior-preserving and covered by the same tests.) Also covers the nil-shutdown
race noted in §4.2.
6. **Regression suite**: existing `make test` must pass unchanged with tracing compiled in
but disabled. Note the existing `pkg/app` tests construct `&App{...}` literals directly
and never call `app.New`, so they do *not* guard the §4.2 one-liner — PR 1 adds a
targeted test asserting `app.New` roots cancellation (and the span) exactly as before.
## 11. Documentation & rollout
1. `docs/otel.md` — user guide: enabling, env vars, collector recipes (Jaeger all-in-one,
Grafana Tempo, vendor SaaS), CI correlation via `TRACEPARENT`, sample trace reading.
Linked from `docs/index.md`.
2. Feature listed under **experimental** in `docs/experimental-features.md` for one or two
minor releases (feedback on span taxonomy is the main thing that may change), then
promoted to stable with a CHANGELOG entry.
3. PR sequence (each independently shippable and revertible, each measured against the
§7 functional-impact checklist):
- **PR 1**: `pkg/telemetry` + flag/env + root span + lifecycle + `app.New` one-liner +
docs + tests (§4.1–4.2).
- **PR 2**: `ShellRunner` instrumentation + shared redaction extraction/extension (§4.4
phase-1 steps 2–3, §6) — the core value.
- **PR 3**: load/render spans + hook bridging + per-release spans via
`HelmContext.Ctx`/`execCtx` (§4.4 phase 2).
- **PR 4 (post-stabilization)**: metrics (e.g. `helmfile.helm.exec.duration` histogram,
`helmfile.release.count` by result), kubedog/vals spans.
## 12. Future work (explicitly out of scope for v1)
- ~~Metrics pipeline on the same provider (`otel/sdk/metric` with the same env-var config)~~ — delivered: `helmfile.helm.exec.duration`, `helmfile.release.count`, and `helmfile.release.duration` via `autoexport.NewMetricReader` (`OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER`); per-release name/namespace attributes on the duration histogram are opt-in via `HELMFILE_OTEL_METRICS_PER_RELEASE` (bounded dimensions by default).
- `TRACEPARENT` injection into helm subprocess env so chart-test hooks / plugins can extend
the helmfile trace.
- Subprocesses started inside `github.com/helmfile/chartify` (kustomize, and any helm calls
chartify makes) are invisible to `ShellRunner` instrumentation; options are a wrapper
span around each chartify call in `pkg/state`, or upstream OTel support in chartify.
- Log-to-trace correlation (zap OTel appender).
- Remaining per-release instrumentation: the flag-preparation loops
(`prepareSyncReleases`/`prepareDiffReleases`) and the exec nesting for
`helmexec.Interface` methods that take no `HelmContext`
(TemplateRelease/Lint/Unittest/Fetch) — their exec spans currently sit flat
under the load span while the release span covers the surrounding work.
- Fixing the kubedog/hook cancellation gaps (§4.3) — separate issues filed from this design.
## 13. Alternatives considered
| Alternative | Why rejected |
|---|---|
| Structured logs + collector-side parsing | No hierarchy/timing guarantees; every backend needs custom parsing; poor UX. |
| Prometheus metrics only | Shows counts/durations but not critical paths or nesting; the request is explicitly about tracing where time goes. |
| Hand-rolled exporter selection in helmfile | `autoexport` already exists in the dependency graph and implements the spec env vars (verified: v0.67.0 supports `otlp`/`console`/`none`, protocol dispatch, `none` detection); hand-rolled code is pure maintenance burden and would drift from the spec. |
| Helmfile-specific env vars for endpoint/headers etc. | Duplicates the OTel spec; standard vars are already what platform teams configure. |
| Full `context.Context` refactor of `pkg/state` first | Large, risky churn unrelated to the feature; the `HelmContext.Ctx`/`execCtx` design achieves nesting without it. |
| Using the existing `WithContext` clone for per-release spans | The cached, shared execer (`a.helms`) serves concurrent workers; per-release contexts must travel with the per-call `HelmContext` parameter, not via instance substitution. |
| Config-file (`helmfile.yaml`) telemetry settings | Telemetry is an operational/platform concern, not state authoring; flag+env matches how it's injected in CI. |
## 14. Open questions
1. **Propagation into helm subprocesses**: should helmfile inject `TRACEPARENT` into the
child process env (opt-in) so hooks/plugins can continue the trace? (§12)
2. **Span-name taxonomy stability**: do we commit to the §5 names as stable API for
dashboard authors during the experimental window, or reserve the right to rename?
Proposal: rename freely while experimental, freeze on promotion.
3. **`helmfile.d` parallel mode**: state-file spans are siblings under the root span — is a
synthetic `helmfile.parallel` grouping span wanted, or does flat suffice?
4. **Trace output when `--log-level=debug`**: duplicate a compact span tree to stderr at
shutdown for quick local triage without a collector?
5. **Root span noise for trivial commands**: `helmfile version`/`help` also run
`PersistentPreRunE` — export a root span for them, or skip? (Proposal: skip via a
short denylist; cosmetic.)
