Description

Description

Currently, the project lacks support [Correct me if i'm wrong] for opentelemetry-instrumentation-asyncio, which would allow better tracing and monitoring of asyncio-based operations. Integrating this instrumentation would enhance observability, making it easier to diagnose performance bottlenecks and errors in async workflows.

Official package: opentelemetry-instrumentation-asyncio

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study how existing instrumentations like opentelemetry instrumentation httpx are integrated into logfire, then replicate the approach for asyncio by wrapping async event loops and tasks.
