Check MLflow Autolog Support for a Framework
Usage: /check-autolog-support <framework>
Example: /check-autolog-support autogen
You are determining whether MLflow has autolog support for a given agent framework, and what that autolog covers.
Input
The framework name is: $ARGUMENTS
If no framework name was provided, ask the user which framework they want to check.
Steps
1. Search MLflow's autolog modules
First, check the official MLflow autolog integrations page for the list of supported frameworks and model providers:
https://mlflow.org/docs/latest/genai/tracing/integrations/
Then, if needed, use WebSearch to find additional details about mlflow.<framework>.autolog():
mlflow <framework> autolog- Check the MLflow documentation and GitHub repo for
mlflow/<framework> module
2. Classify the autolog coverage level
Based on your research, classify the framework into one of these levels:
Level A — Full auto-tracing: All three tracing layers are captured automatically:
- Agent/orchestration spans (agent loops, workflows, task execution)
- Tool execution spans (tool calls with inputs/outputs)
- LLM call spans (model API calls with token usage)
There are two variants:
- Autolog variant:
mlflow.<framework>.autolog() captures everything. Examples: LangGraph (mlflow.langchain), LlamaIndex (mlflow.llama_index)
- OTel variant: No
mlflow.<framework>.autolog() exists, but the framework natively emits OpenTelemetry spans that MLflow ingests via OTLP. Requires SQL-based MLflow backend and opentelemetry-exporter-otlp-proto-http. Example: Google ADK
Level B — Partial autolog: mlflow.<framework>.autolog() exists but misses one or more layers. Common gaps:
- Tool spans not captured (CrewAI >=1.10)
- LLM calls routed through a different provider path not covered by the framework autolog
- Only orchestration-level spans, no LLM-level detail
Example in this repo: CrewAI (mlflow.crewai covers orchestration, but tools need manual wrapping and LLM calls need a separate provider-specific autolog)
Level C — No framework autolog: No mlflow.<framework> module exists. All tracing must be done manually using mlflow.trace() decorators, but you can still use a provider-level autolog for LLM calls (e.g., mlflow.openai.autolog() if the framework uses the OpenAI SDK under the hood).
Example in this repo: Vanilla Python agent (uses mlflow.openai.autolog() for LLM calls, manual wrapping for agent loop + tools)
3. Identify the LLM provider path
Determine how the framework makes LLM calls:
- Does it use the OpenAI SDK directly? →
mlflow.openai.autolog() can capture LLM spans
- Does it use LangChain's
ChatOpenAI? → mlflow.langchain.autolog() covers it
- Does it use LiteLLM? →
mlflow.litellm.autolog()
- Does it have its own LLM client? → Check if there's a matching MLflow autolog for that client
- Does it support multiple providers with a factory pattern? → May need provider-specific routing (like CrewAI)
4. Report findings
Output a summary in this format:
## Autolog Support Report: <framework>
**Coverage level**: A / B / C
**Autolog module**: `mlflow.<framework>.autolog()` or "None"
**What autolog covers**: <list of span types captured>
**What autolog misses**: <list of gaps, or "Nothing — full coverage">
**LLM provider path**: <how the framework makes LLM calls>
**Recommended provider autolog**: `mlflow.<provider>.autolog()` or "Not needed — framework autolog covers LLM calls"
**Manual tracing needed for**: <list of things that need manual wrapping, or "Nothing">
This report will be used by the orchestrator to decide which tracing pattern to apply.
Self-Update
Before finishing, check whether this skill file needs updating. If any of the following are true, propose the specific changes to the user and only update this file if they approve:
- You deviated from these instructions because they were inaccurate, outdated, or insufficient — and your deviation worked.
- You encountered a new pattern not covered here (e.g., a framework that uses OpenTelemetry instead of autolog, or a new provider path).
- File paths, function names, or API patterns referenced here have changed.
- A step didn't work as described and needed a different approach.
If nothing needed changing, move on.
