# OpenTelemetry wiring for an agent container: the per-agent options the # meta flake injects (host-driven from `services.hyperhive.otel.*`), the # environment every OTLP producer inside the container reads, and the # collector that forwards this container's journal to the hive. # # Two directions, one endpoint. Metrics are PUSHED by processes in here # that speak OTLP themselves; logs are not pushed by anyone, because # nothing in a journal has an SDK. The forwarder is what turns the second # into the first, and it has to run inside the container — a hive-level # reader cannot see this journal at all (the host-side per-container # directory is an id-mapped bind mount journald never writes into). # # Claude Code is one producer here, not the owner. `hive-metric` — and # any future in-container exporter — reads the same endpoint, protocol # and resource labels, so they are container environment rather than # claude settings.
