Description

Amy Ru from the LangChain Product team walks through wiring up the Codex CLI so every session lands in LangSmith as a full trace, including turns, tool calls, model metadata, token usage, and nested sub-agents. She sets up the tracing plugin from the Codex marketplace, configures config.toml and environment variables, runs a real multi-step Codex task, and shows exactly what to check if traces don't show up.
