How do I connect Flowlines to my agent?
You connect Flowlines by pointing it at the trace store you already use, Langfuse, Helicone, Arize, any OpenTelemetry pipeline, or a JSON drop. There's no SDK to ship and no code change; the first connect backfills your last 30 days and then streams new sessions live.
Flowlines reads from where your agent's traces already live. You don't send us data through a new SDK or wrap your agent in our code. You authorize a read connection to your existing observability and we ingest from there.
Three ways in: connect Langfuse with API keys; point us at an OpenTelemetry endpoint (Helicone, Arize, or a raw OTLP collector); or drop JSON over a webhook for anything custom. Pick whichever matches your stack.
First connect backfills the last 30 days so you have signal immediately instead of waiting for new traffic. After that, sessions stream in within a couple of minutes of happening.
Read connection, not instrumentation
Because Flowlines reads traces rather than instrumenting your code, the integration surface is a connection string, not a deploy. Your agent doesn't import anything, your latency doesn't change, and removing Flowlines is deleting a connection, not a code rollback.
