Tools & capabilities

Simpletel tools 4

get_tracesLists this team's traces newest-first. The JSON document `simpletel get traces --format json` produces. Use it to find a failing or slow request.
get_traceFetches one trace in full — spans, span events, and correlated log records. The JSON document `simpletel get trace <id> --format json` produces.
verifyRuns the `simpletel verify` onboarding check: polls until `service` has a fresh trace carrying spans from a library instrumentation. Returns the rung report and the exit status (`0` verified, `1` deadline miss). A deadline miss is a completed check, not a tool error.
