Emit installed extensions in telemetry for all commands#6918
Draft
Emit installed extensions in telemetry for all commands#6918
Conversation
Add new telemetry fields `extensions.installed.ids` and `extensions.installed.versions` to capture the list of installed extensions on every command span. This enables tracking which extensions users have installed, even for non-extension commands like `azd up` or `azd deploy`. Co-authored-by: JeffreyCA <9157833+JeffreyCA@users.noreply.github.com>

Extension telemetry (id, version) is currently only emitted for extension commands (
ext.run). For standard commands likeazd uporazd deploy, we have no visibility into what extensions the user has installed—relevant when extensions hook into core command lifecycles.Changes
internal/tracing/fields/fields.go— NewAttributeKeydefinitions:extensions.installed.idsandextensions.installed.versions(string slices,SystemMetadata/FeatureInsight)cmd/middleware/telemetry.go—setInstalledExtensionsAttributeslists installed extensions via the manager and sets sorted ID/version pairs on the command span. Called unconditionally for all commands; no-ops when manager is nil or no extensions are installed.Example span output for
azd upwith two extensions installed:{ "Name": "cmd.up", "Attributes": [ { "Key": "extensions.installed.ids", "Value": ["microsoft.azd.ai", "microsoft.azd.demo"] }, { "Key": "extensions.installed.versions", "Value": ["1.2.0", "0.5.0"] } ] }IDs are sorted lexicographically; versions are positionally aligned.
