The previous implementation used `flushIfNeeded` to batch most telemetry events, but it was not reliably sending them, leading to data loss. Notably, the `startSession` event, which already used `flushToClearcut`, was working correctly, indicating an issue with the batching logic itself.
This change replaces all calls to `flushIfNeeded` with `flushToClearcut` to align all event logging with the working `startSession` implementation and ensure that events are sent immediately. This prioritizes the reliability of data collection over network efficiency.
This is a temporary solution to prevent further data loss. The underlying issue with the batching mechanism in `flushIfNeeded` should be investigated and fixed in the future, at which point this change can be reverted.
Renames the `disableDataCollection` flag to the more intuitive and positive `dataCollectionEnabled`.
This change improves code clarity by avoiding double negatives and making the purpose of the flag more direct. The logic has been inverted wherever the flag is used to accommodate the new naming convention.
Using a suffix like `"Enabled"` follows a common convention that improves readability.
- A condition like `if (dataCollectionEnabled)` reads like a natural language sentence ("if data collection is enabled"), which reduces cognitive load.
- Distinguishes the boolean flag (representing a state) from potential functions that would perform an action (e.g., `enableDataCollection()` or `disableDataCollection()`), avoiding ambiguity between checking a value and calling a function.
#750
Introduces telemetry for file create, read, and update operations.
This change adds the `gemini_cli.file.operation.count` metric, recorded by the `read-file`, `read-many-files`, and `write-file` tools.
The metric includes the following attributes:
- `operation` (string: `create`, `read`, `update`): The type of file operation.
- `lines` (optional, Int): Number of lines in the file.
- `mimetype` (optional, string): Mimetype of the file.
- `extension` (optional, string): File extension of the file.
Here is a stacked bar chart of file operations by extension (`js`, `ts`, `md`):
