## Filter: license
|
|
|
|
<!-- Result: Apache-2.0 -->
|
|
|
|
`npm view @opentelemetry/context-async-hooks license` returns `Apache-2.0`. Apache-2.0 is on the allowlist.
|
|
|
|
## Filter: types
|
|
|
|
<!-- Result: native -->
|
|
|
|
`@opentelemetry/context-async-hooks` is authored in TypeScript and ships its own `.d.ts` declaration files. No separate `@types/` package is needed.
|
|
|
|
## Filter: maintenance
|
|
|
|
<!-- Result: active -->
|
|
|
|
Actively maintained by the OpenTelemetry community. Versioned with the OTel JS SDK at 1.x; the package tracks Node.js async_hooks API stability and receives updates alongside the SDK.
|
|
|
|
## Filter: boundary-fit
|
|
|
|
<!-- Result: pass -->
|
|
|
|
ADR-017 mandates OTel as the instrumentation substrate. `@opentelemetry/context-async-hooks` provides the Node.js `AsyncLocalStorage`-based context manager required for automatic span propagation across async boundaries. It lives exclusively in `core-shared/instrumentation/otel/` and `core-audit` init paths.
|
|
|
|
## Filter: shadow-check
|
|
|
|
<!-- Result: pass -->
|
|
|
|
`@opentelemetry/context-async-hooks` is the standard OTel context manager for Node.js. No competing context propagation mechanism is present in the workspace.
|
|
|
|
## Filter: eu-residency
|
|
|
|
<!-- Result: n/a -->
|
|
|
|
`@opentelemetry/context-async-hooks` is a pure context propagation adapter with no network communication or data transmission. EU residency does not apply.
|
|
|
|
## Filter: cve-scan
|
|
|
|
<!-- Result: clean -->
|
|
|
|
`pnpm audit --audit-level=moderate` reports no advisories against `@opentelemetry/context-async-hooks` at the time of this trace.
|
|
|
|
## Filter: named-consumer
|
|
|
|
<!-- Result: pass -->
|
|
|
|
`packages/core-shared/src/instrumentation/otel/` registers `AsyncLocalStorageContextManager` from this package during OTel SDK init to enable automatic trace context propagation across Node.js async operations. `packages/core-audit` depends on it for span context in audit records.
|
|
|
|
## Prompt: replaces
|
|
|
|
Replaces the manual context threading that would otherwise be required to pass span context through async call chains. Without this package, every async function would need to explicitly forward a context argument — defeating the automatic propagation guarantee of OTel.
|
|
|
|
## Prompt: migration-cost-out
|
|
|
|
Low. `@opentelemetry/context-async-hooks` is registered in one place during OTel SDK initialization. Swapping to a different context manager (e.g., `@opentelemetry/context-zone` for browser) is a one-line change in the SDK init file.
|
|
|
|
## Prompt: alternatives-considered
|
|
|
|
1. **`@opentelemetry/context-zone`** — Zone.js-based context manager designed for Angular/browser environments. Not applicable for a Node.js server; `async_hooks` is the correct primitive for server-side async context.
|
|
2. **Manual context passing** — Thread context explicitly through every function signature. Rejected: error-prone at scale and defeats the auto-instrumentation value of the OTel SDK.
