# BeeAI Tracing (Python)

> Instrument and observe BeeAI agents

export const projectName_0 = "beeai-agent"

Phoenix provides seamless observability and tracing for BeeAI agents through the [Python OpenInference instrumentation package](https://pypi.org/project/openinference-instrumentation-beeai/).

## Install

```bash theme={null}
pip install openinference-instrumentation-beeai beeai-framework
```

## Setup

Connect your application to Phoenix with the `register` function:

<CodeBlock language="python">
  {`from phoenix.otel import register

    # configure the Phoenix tracer
    tracer_provider = register(
    project_name="${projectName_0}", # Default is 'default'
    auto_instrument=True # Auto-instrument your app based on installed OI dependencies
    )`}
</CodeBlock>

## Run BeeAI

Sample agent built using BeeAI with automatic tracing:

```python expandable theme={null}
import asyncio
from beeai_framework.agents.react import ReActAgent
from beeai_framework.agents.types import AgentExecutionConfig
from beeai_framework.backend.chat import ChatModel
from beeai_framework.backend.types import ChatModelParameters
from beeai_framework.memory import TokenMemory
from beeai_framework.tools.search.duckduckgo import DuckDuckGoSearchTool
from beeai_framework.tools.search.wikipedia import WikipediaTool
from beeai_framework.tools.tool import AnyTool
from beeai_framework.tools.weather.openmeteo import OpenMeteoTool

llm = ChatModel.from_name(
    "ollama:granite3.1-dense:8b",
    ChatModelParameters(temperature=0),
)

tools: list[AnyTool] = [
    WikipediaTool(),
    OpenMeteoTool(),
    DuckDuckGoSearchTool(),
]

agent = ReActAgent(llm=llm, tools=tools, memory=TokenMemory(llm))

prompt = "What's the current weather in Las Vegas?"

async def main() -> None:
    response = await agent.run(
        prompt=prompt,
        execution=AgentExecutionConfig(
            max_retries_per_step=3, total_max_retries=10, max_iterations=20
        ),
    )

    print("Agent 🤖 : ", response.result.text)

asyncio.run(main())
```

## Observe

Phoenix provides visibility into your BeeAI agent operations by automatically tracing all interactions.
