The plugin reads OTEL_* environment settings and configured TLS certificate/key files to connect to telemetry collectors, which is expected for OpenTelemetry but should be configured carefully.
Install Mechanism
Installation is a standard OpenClaw plugin install with no npm lifecycle scripts or bundled skill instructions; activation is disclosed as startup registration.
Instruction Scope
Runtime behavior is gated by OpenClaw diagnostics config; content capture defaults off, logs require explicit enablement, and captured text is redacted/truncated before export.
Persistence & Privilege
Persistence is limited to plugin startup service registration and in-memory telemetry providers/subscriptions that are cleaned up on stop; no background worker, autorun shell command, or filesystem persistence was found.
Purpose & Capability
The package purpose is diagnostics export, and the runtime registers a diagnostics service that exports traces, metrics, and optional logs to OTLP/stdout, matching the README and package metadata.
Assessment
Install this only if you intend to send OpenClaw gateway diagnostics to an observability pipeline. Review the configured OTLP endpoint, headers, TLS files, and captureContent/log settings because enabling content capture or log export can send operational details and potentially sensitive prompts, tool inputs, or outputs to your collector.Verification

@openclaw/diagnostics-otel
Official OpenTelemetry diagnostics exporter for OpenClaw.
This plugin exports OpenClaw Gateway traces, metrics, and logs to an OTLP collector for observability stacks such as Grafana, Datadog, Honeycomb, New Relic, Tempo, and compatible collectors. It can also write diagnostic log records as stdout JSONL for container log pipelines.
Install
openclaw plugins install @openclaw/diagnostics-otel
Restart the Gateway after installing or updating the plugin.
Configure
Enable the plugin, set diagnostics.otel.enabled to true, and set the collector URL in diagnostics.otel.endpoint.
