📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughOpenTelemetry now derives deterministic sampling randomness from a source value, propagates it through trace state, and uses the workflow invocation ID during startup. Tests cover deterministic output and propagation across spans. ChangesTelemetry sampling
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to Action telemetry now uses a deterministic shared sampler, which can cause configured environment sampling settings and inherited sampling decisions to be ignored. The behavior is functional but should be documented so operators understand its telemetry-volume and sampling implications. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Each execution phase is a separate trace, so a sampler keying on trace randomness keeps a job's main phase and drops its post phase. The SDK now writes the invocation ID's randomness into tracestate as `rv`, which every phase of a job shares. Hashed, so the value stays uniform. Inert until the collector's probabilistic_sampler leaves hash_seed mode: that mode reads the trace ID and ignores rv.
