Cause (Documented platform behavior): Spans created in workflow code must use replay-safe ID generation to avoid duplicates/non-determinism on replay.
Fix status: documented_behavior
Misleading approaches:
- Copying the module path from the error message verbatim: it is misspelled in the source string.
Other error fragments:
- When using OpenTelemetryPlugin, the global trace provider must be a ReplaySafeTracerProvider. Use create_tracer_provider to create one.

Problem details
- Observed symptom
- Worker/plugin setup fails when OTel instrumentation is enabled.
- Context
- Product: Temporal Python SDK OpenAI Agents integration Component: OpenAIAgentsPlugin OpenTelemetry integration Operation: OpenAIAgentsPlugin(use_otel_instrumentation=True) with a normal SDK TracerProvider Affected versions: unknown Environment: unknown Exception: ValueError Packages: temporalio main at pinned SHA (contrib.openai_agents), openai-agents unknown Trigger: Global OTel tracer provider was created with opentelemetry.sdk.trace.TracerProvider rather than the Temporal replay-safe factory.

solution · Revision 1
Proposed fix: [Temporal OpenAI Agents plugin] Tracing: "Global tracer provider must a ReplaySafeTracerProvider." with OTel instrumentation
Recommended action: Create the provider with temporalio.contrib.opentelemetry.create_tracer_provider(...) and set it globally before building the plugin. Note the error text misspells the module path ("opentelemtry", "create_trace_provider").
