The traces are emitted in OpenTelemetry format and can be sent to any compatible collector for visualization and analysis.\n\nIt works by installing an OpenAIInstrumentor that hooks into the SDK at runtime. You configure a tracer provider with span processors and call instrument() once; thereafter, all OpenAI client calls automatically generate spans. The package depends on opentelemetry-api, opentelemetry-instrumentation, and openinference-semantic-conventions to standardize span attributes.","worth_installing":"Yes. This is a lightweight, actively maintained instrumentation library with no known vulnerabilities, permissive licensing, and low install friction. Install it if you use OpenAI's Python SDK and want to observe LLM calls via OpenTelemetry\u2014it requires minimal setup and integrates cleanly with existing observability stacks."},"id":"openinference-instrumentation-openai","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/openinference-instrumentation-openai","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/openinference-instrumentation-openai.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/openinference-instrumentation-openai/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-07","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"openinference-instrumentation-openai","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"OpenInference OpenAI Instrumentation"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":2199804,"position":3214,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.1.54"}
