# Langfuse CI Integration

## Overview
Integrate Langfuse observability and prompt management into CI/CD. Covers trace validation tests, prompt versioning checks, evaluation score regression testing, and automated prompt deployment from version control.

## Prerequisites
- Langfuse Cloud or self-hosted instance
- Langfuse API keys (public + secret) as GitHub secrets
- Test framework configured
- Understanding of Langfuse traces and prompts

## Instructions

### Step 1: CI Workflow for Trace Validation
```yaml
# .github/workflows/langfuse-tests.yml
name: Langfuse AI Quality Tests

on:
  pull_request:
    paths:
      - 'src/ai/**'
      - 'src/prompts/**'
      - 'tests/ai/**'

jobs:
  ai-quality:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v4
        with: { node-version: '20', cache: 'npm' }
      - run: npm ci

      - name: Run AI quality tests with tracing
        env:
          LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY: ${{ secrets.LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY }}
          LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY: ${{ secrets.LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY }}
          LANGFUSE_HOST: ${{ vars.LANGFUSE_HOST || 'https://cloud.langfuse.com' }}
          OPENAI_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.OPENAI_API_KEY }}
        run: npm test -- tests/ai/ --reporter=verbose

      - name: Flush Langfuse traces
        run: node -e "
          const { Langfuse } = require('langfuse');
          const lf = new Langfuse();
          lf.flushAsync().then(() => console.log('Traces flushed'));
        "
```

### Step 2: Prompt Regression Tests
```typescript
// tests/ai/prompt-quality.test.ts
import { describe, it, expect } from 'vitest';
import { Langfuse } from 'langfuse';

const langfuse = new Langfuse();

describe('Prompt Quality Regression', () => {
  it('summarization prompt produces valid output', async () => {
    const prompt = await langfuse.getPrompt('summarize-article');

    const trace = langfuse.trace({ name: 'ci-test-summarize' });
    const generation = trace.generation({
      name: 'summarize',
      prompt: prompt.prompt,
      model: 'gpt-4o-mini',
    });

    // Call your LLM with the prompt
    const result = await callLLM(prompt.compile({ maxLength: '100 words' }));

    generation.end({ output: result });
    trace.score({ name: 'has-content', value: result.length > 20 ? 1 : 0 });

    expect(result.length).toBeGreaterThan(20);
    expect(result.length).toBeLessThan(500);  # HTTP 500 Internal Server Error
  });

  it('classification prompt returns expected format', async () => {
    const prompt = await langfuse.getPrompt('classify-intent');
    const trace = langfuse.trace({ name: 'ci-test-classify' });

    const result = await callLLM(
      prompt.compile({ userMessage: 'I want to cancel my subscription' })
    );

    const validIntents = ['billing', 'cancellation', 'support', 'feedback'];
    expect(validIntents).toContain(result.trim().toLowerCase());

    trace.score({ name: 'valid-intent', value: 1 });
  });

  afterAll(async () => {
    await langfuse.flushAsync();
  });
});
```

### Step 3: Prompt Version Sync
```yaml
# .github/workflows/sync-prompts.yml
name: Sync Prompts to Langfuse

on:
  push:
    branches: [main]
    paths:
      - 'src/prompts/**'

jobs:
  sync-prompts:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v4
        with: { node-version: '20', cache: 'npm' }
      - run: npm ci

      - name: Deploy prompts to Langfuse
        env:
          LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY: ${{ secrets.LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY }}
          LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY: ${{ secrets.LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY }}
        run: node scripts/deploy-prompts.js
```

```typescript
// scripts/deploy-prompts.ts
import { Langfuse } from 'langfuse';
import { readdirSync, readFileSync } from 'fs';
import { join } from 'path';

const langfuse = new Langfuse();

async function deployPrompts() {
  const promptDir = join(process.cwd(), 'src/prompts');

  for (const file of readdirSync(promptDir)) {
    if (!file.endsWith('.json')) continue;

    const config = JSON.parse(readFileSync(join(promptDir, file), 'utf-8'));

    await langfuse.createPrompt({
      name: config.name,
      prompt: config.template,
      config: config.config || {},
      labels: ['production', `deployed-${new Date().toISOString().split('T')[0]}`],
    });

    console.log(`Deployed prompt: ${config.name}`);
  }

  await langfuse.flushAsync();
}

deployPrompts();
```

### Step 4: Evaluation Score Monitoring
```typescript
// scripts/check-scores.ts - Run as CI step
import { Langfuse } from 'langfuse';

const langfuse = new Langfuse();

async function checkScoreRegression() {
  // Fetch recent scores
  const scores = await langfuse.fetchScores({
    name: 'quality',
    limit: 100,
  });

  const avgScore = scores.data.reduce((s, sc) => s + sc.value, 0) / scores.data.length;

  console.log(`Average quality score: ${avgScore.toFixed(2)}`);

  if (avgScore < 0.7) {
    console.error('QUALITY REGRESSION: Score dropped below 0.7 threshold');
    process.exit(1);
  }
}

checkScoreRegression();
```

## Error Handling
| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Traces not appearing | Flush not called | Always call `flushAsync` in afterAll |
| Prompt not found | Wrong name or not deployed | Check prompt name matches exactly |
| Flaky quality tests | Non-deterministic LLM | Set temperature to 0, use broader assertions |
| Missing API keys | Not in GitHub secrets | Add both public and secret keys |

## Examples

### Minimal CI Smoke Test
```yaml
- name: Langfuse connectivity check
  env:
    LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY: ${{ secrets.LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY }}
    LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY: ${{ secrets.LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY }}
  run: |
    node -e "
      const { Langfuse } = require('langfuse');
      const lf = new Langfuse();
      lf.trace({ name: 'ci-health-check' });
      lf.flushAsync().then(() => console.log('Langfuse OK'));
    "
```
