Versioning

The telemetry contract uses semantic versioning independently from SDK versions, OpenTelemetry semantic-convention versions, and TRACE versions.

  • Patch: clarification or fixture change with no wire behavior change.
  • Minor: backward-compatible optional field, event, or enum addition with defined older-consumer behavior.
  • Major: removal, changed meaning, new required field, or incompatible canonicalization.

The current contract version is 0.1.0-alpha.1. Python publishes the equivalent PEP 440 version 0.1.0a1; npm and the Git tag use 0.1.0-alpha.1 and v0.1.0-alpha.1. Pre-1.0 changes may be incompatible and must be called out explicitly.

Published GitHub releases are the sole release trigger. The release tag must match v<contract-version> exactly; CI builds each package once, publishes those same artifacts through registry trusted publishing, and attaches them to the GitHub release with build provenance.
