Operating AITracer in Preview Environments
Validate Agent Lab and trace ingest in staging before production.
Preview environments are the right place to confirm Agent Lab and trace ingest work before you point production traffic at the app.
Recommended preview checks
- Ollama reachable from the preview container (
OLLAMA_BASE_URL) - Sign in → run one prompt in Run agent → trace visible in Traces
- Optional: ingest a test payload through
POST /api/traceswith a staging API key - Optional: coach session with a test provider key (expect small API cost)
What to skip in preview
You do not need governance, verification, or audit vault configured to validate the core product. Add those when you have a concrete compliance requirement for production ingest.
