OpenTelemetry Maps Agent Tooling Landscape

The missing piece is a common portability layer: today’s agent tools expose similar capabilities through incompatible hooks, manifests, telemetry schemas, and marketplace workflows.

• –Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Windsurf, and Antigravity deserve inclusion
• –Aider, Cline, Roo Code, and Continue remain important adjacent clients
• –OpenTelemetry can standardize traces for prompts, tool calls, permissions, edits, and subagents
• –Marketplace interoperability still requires per-client manifests, install flows, authentication, and policy controls
• –Reproducible installs, security scanning, dependency locking, and enterprise governance are as important as discovery
