bash <base_directory>/scripts/query.sh <command> [options]

Commands

Command	Args	Description
traces	[limit] [session_id] [name]	List recent traces
trace	trace_id	Get full trace with observations
observations	[limit] [trace_id]	List spans/generations
sessions	[limit]	List sessions
summary	[limit]	Compact one-line-per-trace view

Examples

# List last 20 traces
bash <base_directory>/scripts/query.sh traces 20

# Get specific trace detail
bash <base_directory>/scripts/query.sh trace tr-abc123

# List observations for a trace
bash <base_directory>/scripts/query.sh observations 50 tr-abc123

# Quick summary of recent activity
bash <base_directory>/scripts/query.sh summary 10
