!node --version 2>/dev/null || echo 'N/A' !python3 --version 2>/dev/null || echo 'N/A' !npm list langfuse @langfuse/client @langfuse/tracing 2>/dev/null | head -5 || echo 'No langfuse packages'

Overview

Collect all diagnostic information needed for Langfuse support tickets: environment versions, SDK config, API connectivity, redacted logs, and a reproduction template.

Prerequisites

• Langfuse SDK installed
• Access to application logs
• Bash shell available

Instructions

Step 1: Run the Full Debug Bundle Script

Save this as langfuse-debug.sh and run it:

#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail

BUNDLE_DIR="langfuse-debug-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)"
mkdir -p "$BUNDLE_DIR"

echo "=== Langfuse Debug Bundle ===" | tee "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"
echo "Generated: $(date)" | tee -a "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"

  echo ""
  echo "--- Environment ---"
  echo "Node.js: $(node --version 2>/dev/null || echo 'not installed')"
  echo "Python: $(python3 --version 2>/dev/null || echo 'not installed')"
  echo "npm: $(npm --version 2>/dev/null || echo 'not installed')"
  echo "OS: $(uname -srm)"
} >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"

# --- SDK Versions ---
{
  echo ""
  echo "--- SDK Versions ---"
  npm list langfuse @langfuse/client @langfuse/tracing @langfuse/otel @langfuse/openai @langfuse/langchain 2>/dev/null || echo "npm: no langfuse packages"
  pip show langfuse 2>/dev/null | grep -E "Name|Version" || echo "pip: langfuse not found"
} >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"

  echo ""
  echo "--- Langfuse Config ---"

  echo "Target host: $HOST"
  echo -n "Health endpoint: "
  curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code} (%{time_total}s)" "$HOST/api/public/health" 2>/dev/null || echo "FAILED"
  echo ""

  if [ -n "${LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY:-}" ] && [ -n "${LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY:-}" ]; then
    AUTH=$(echo -n "$LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY:$LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY" | base64)
    echo -n "Auth test: "

    echo ""
  fi
} >> "$BUNDLE_DIR/summary.txt"

# --- Application Logs (redacted) ---
if [ -d "logs" ]; then
  grep -i "langfuse\|trace\|generation\|flush" logs/*.log 2>/dev/null | \
    tail -100 | \
    sed 's/sk-lf-[a-zA-Z0-9]*/sk-lf-***REDACTED***/g' | \
    sed 's/pk-lf-[a-zA-Z0-9]*/pk-lf-***REDACTED***/g' \
    > "$BUNDLE_DIR/app-logs-redacted.txt" 2>/dev/null || true
fi

tar -czf "$BUNDLE_DIR.tar.gz" "$BUNDLE_DIR" 2>/dev/null

Step 2: Review Before Sharing

Always redact before submitting:

Step 3: Submit to Support

1. Run: bash langfuse-debug.sh
2. Review bundle contents for leaked secrets
3. Fill in reproduction-steps.md
4. Submit via:

- GitHub Issues (public) - Discord (community) - Email support (enterprise customers)

Step 4: Quick Inline Diagnostic (No File)

For a fast check without creating files:

set -euo pipefail
echo "=== Quick Langfuse Check ==="
echo "Node: $(node --version 2>/dev/null || echo N/A)"
npm list langfuse @langfuse/client 2>/dev/null | head -5
echo ""
echo "Public Key: ${LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY:+SET} | Secret Key: ${LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY:+SET}"
HOST="${LANGFUSE_BASE_URL:-${LANGFUSE_HOST:-https://cloud.langfuse.com}}"
echo "Health: $(curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' $HOST/api/public/health)"

Error Handling

Output

Produce a sanitized archive and a short reproduction report containing the SDK/runtime versions, affected deployment environment, health-check result, and exact reproduction steps. The bundle must exclude keys, authorization headers, customer inputs, and unredacted logs.

Examples

When traces are absent after a deployment, run the inline diagnostic, redact the log, and attach the smallest reproduction plus the deployment SHA. When an authentication failure occurs, report whether each key is set and the sanitized health status—never the key value or a Basic authorization header.
