WalkthroughMCP authentication and server endpoints now create OpenTelemetry spans. The spans record operations, server metadata, counts, and deletion status. Unit tests verify span attributes, error states, and exclusion of sensitive authentication data. ChangesMCP OpenTelemetry instrumentation
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR adds tracing to MCP endpoints, but server-list responses remain unbounded and may consume excessive memory or produce oversized responses as registrations grow; one registration span may also report an inaccurate provider ID. Merge should wait for bounded list results or explicit owner acceptance, along with the telemetry correction. Suggested reviewers: 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 7✅ Passed checks (7 passed)

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Record the actual provider ID.
provider_id accepts "". Registration preserves that value, but Lines 83-84 record "model-context-protocol" in the span. This makes the trace disagree with the response and registered server.
Proposed fix
- SpanAttributes.MCP_SERVER_PROVIDER_ID: body.provider_id
- or "model-context-protocol",
+ SpanAttributes.MCP_SERVER_PROVIDER_ID: body.provider_id,📝 Committable suggestion

🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Add pagination or a strict result limit to both MCP server list endpoints.
Dynamic registration can grow configuration.mcp_servers without a fixed bound. Each endpoint builds and returns every matching server in one response. This can cause excessive memory use and response size.
src/app/endpoints/mcp_servers.py#L142-L161: Add bounded pagination to the server list response.src/app/endpoints/mcp_auth.py#L74-L102: Add the same bound to client-auth server discovery.
As per coding guidelines, flag “missing pagination or limits on list operations and API endpoints.”

Source: Coding guidelines
- Adds OpenTelemetry span instrumentation to mcp_auth.py and mcp_servers.py with safe, high-level metadata attributes (server
name, provider_id, operation, counts, deleted status)
- Registers five new SpanAttributes (MCP_SERVER_NAME, MCP_SERVER_PROVIDER_ID, MCP_SERVERS_COUNT, MCP_OPERATION,
MCP_SERVER_DELETED) in otel_tracing.py
- Error cases (409 Conflict, 403 Forbidden) are automatically captured via start_as_current_span
- No tokens, authorization headers, or secrets appear in any span attributes
