datasette 1.0a41 adds OpenTelemetry support and a documented modal-dialog Web Component for plugins
Simon Willison·low signal
Simon Willison's 2026-09-24 release merges Alec Garcia's OpenTelemetry integration, so Datasette request traces can go to standard observability backends. Every modal dialog now uses one Web Component that is documented for plugin authors. It is a small release, useful for anyone running Datasette behind LLM tooling who wants traces next to their agent telemetry.
