Configure OpenTelemetry context propagation (OTEL_PROPAGATORS) for services running in Kubernetes, especially when using mirrord to intercept or steal traffic. Use this skill whenever the user mentions OTEL_PROPAGATORS, OpenTelemetry propagators, trace context headers, W3C tracecontext, B3 headers, distributed tracing setup, OTel auto-instrumentation configuration, or configuring header propagation for mirrord sessions. Also trigger when someone asks about traceparent headers, baggage propagation, connecting local dev tracing to a cluster, or ensuring downstream services see the correct trace context when traffic is intercepted by mirrord. This skill covers env vars, Kubernetes Instrumentation CRDs, docker-compose, Spring Boot properties, and local dev config for mirrord users.
