//! OpenTelemetry integration for the A2A server.
//!
//! This module provides [`OtelMetrics`], an implementation of the [`Metrics`]
//! trait that records request counts, error counts, latency histograms, and
//! queue depth to OpenTelemetry instruments. Data is exported via the OTLP
//! protocol (gRPC) using the `opentelemetry-otlp` crate.
//!
//! # Module structure
//!
//! | Module | Responsibility |
//! |---|---|
//! | (this file) | `OtelMetrics` struct and `Metrics` trait impl |
//! | `builder` | `OtelMetricsBuilder` — fluent configuration |
//! | `pipeline` | `init_otlp_pipeline` — OTLP export setup |
//!
//! # Feature flag
//!
//! This module is only available when the `otel` feature is enabled.
//!
//! # Quick start
//!
//! ```rust,no_run
//! use a2a_protocol_server::otel::{OtelMetrics, OtelMetricsBuilder, init_otlp_pipeline};
//!
//! # async fn example() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
//! // 1. Initialise the OTLP export pipeline (sets the global MeterProvider).
//! let provider = init_otlp_pipeline("my-a2a-agent")?;
//!
//! // 2. Build the metrics instance.
//! let metrics = OtelMetricsBuilder::new()
//!     .meter_name("a2a.server")
//!     .build();
//!
//! // 3. Pass `metrics` to `RequestHandlerBuilder::metrics(metrics)`.
//! # Ok(())
//! # }
//! ```
