@premierstudio/trace

@premierstudio/trace

Minimal first-party emitter for Premier agent traces.

Install

npm install @premierstudio/trace
# from a source checkout:
npm install ./sdk/js

Usage

Run your agent under premier record so the collector env is injected:

premier record -- node agent.js

import { emit, premier, isPremierActive } from "@premierstudio/trace";

if (isPremierActive()) {
  await premier.spawn("researcher", { task: "find the first divergence" });
  await premier.model("researcher", {
    provider: "openai",
    model: "gpt-5",
    usage: { input_tokens: 1200, output_tokens: 400, total_tokens: 1600 },
    response: "…",
  });
  await emit({
    kind: "tool.execution",
    actor_id: "coder",
    status: "ok",
    payload: { tool: "rg", query: "reconcileInvoice" },
  });
}

When Premier is not recording, emit returns null unless { required: true }.

Premier Cloud

Always-on and deployed agents can emit without a local premier record process. Create a project ingestion key in the Premier dashboard and set:

PREMIER_COLLECTOR_URL=https://premier.dev/api/ingest/v1/events
PREMIER_COLLECTOR_TOKEN=prem_ing_…
PREMIER_TRACE_ID=<unique-run-or-conversation-id>
PREMIER_RUN_NAME="Production support agent"
PREMIER_ENVIRONMENT=production

The SDK includes the trace identity and run metadata on every event. Optional PREMIER_REPOSITORY, PREMIER_BRANCH, and PREMIER_STARTED_AT variables are attached the same way. Store the ingestion key in a server-side secret manager; never ship it to a browser.

CLI alternative

premier emit --kind agent.spawn --actor researcher --status running
