LLM Node Tracing
Monitor every AI decision your agent makes. LLM Node Tracing captures every interaction with your language models, providing detailed insights into prompts, responses, performance, and token usage for complete AI observability.
Perfect for tracking GPT, Claude, and custom LLM calls while optimizing prompts, monitoring costs, and analyzing model performance in production.
LLM Node Tracing is essential for understanding how your AI models behave, optimizing prompts for better results, and controlling costs in production environments.
What Gets Tracked
Every LLM interaction is captured with complete context:
Data Type | What’s Captured | Why It Matters |
---|---|---|
🔤 Prompts & Responses | Complete input prompts and model outputs | Debug issues, optimize prompts, validate behavior |
⚙️ Model Parameters | Temperature, max tokens, model version | Track configuration changes and their impact |
⏱️ Performance | Response times and latency metrics | Identify slow operations and bottlenecks |
❌ Errors | Failed requests, timeouts, and retry attempts | Quickly diagnose and fix model issues |
Implementation Methods
Model Wrapper Approach
Automatically track all interactions with a specific model instance:
Node Decorator Approach
Track specific functions that contain LLM interactions:
