This page documents the adapter-specific metadata that minitrace preserves without promoting it into shared first-class schema fields.

Use it together with:

• go-minitrace help minitrace-schema for the shared schema
• go-minitrace help adapter-reference for adapter overviews

Storage conventions

Framework-specific raw fields are preserved in three places:

Location	Use for
operational_context.framework_config	Session/runtime configuration that applies broadly across the session
turns[].framework_metadata	Raw turn/message metadata that does not fit the shared turn schema
tool_calls[].framework_metadata	Tool-call-specific metadata that is useful but framework-specific

Codex mappings

operational_context.framework_config

Stored key	Raw source
personality	turn_context.payload.personality
collaboration_mode	turn_context.payload.collaboration_mode.mode
collaboration_mode_detail	turn_context.payload.collaboration_mode
reasoning_effort	turn_context.payload.effort or collaboration settings
originator	session_meta.payload.originator
session_source	session_meta.payload.source
approval_policy	turn_context.payload.approval_policy
sandbox_policy	turn_context.payload.sandbox_policy
truncation_policy	turn_context.payload.truncation_policy
rate_limits	latest event_msg.payload.rate_limits from token-count events
model_context_window	task_started / token-count info
timezone	turn_context.payload.timezone

turns[].framework_metadata

Stored key	Raw source
turn_id	turn_context.payload.turn_id, task_started.turn_id, or exec item turn_id
phase	assistant event/item phase
memory_citation	assistant event memory_citation

tool_calls[].framework_metadata

Stored key	Raw source
codex_function	tool/function name used by the adapter
justification	function_call.arguments.justification when present
source	exec_command_end.source or exec item source
parsed_cmd	exec_command_end.parsed_cmd or exec item parsed_cmd
stdout	exec_command_end.stdout or exec item stdout
stderr	exec_command_end.stderr or exec item stderr
status	exec event/item status
turn_id	exec event/item turn_id
exit_code	retained in metadata for compatibility, even though a first-class output.exit_code now exists

Claude Code mappings

operational_context.framework_config

Stored key	Raw source
entrypoint	top-level Claude record entrypoint

turns[].framework_metadata

Stored key	Raw source
entrypoint	top-level Claude record entrypoint
slug	top-level Claude record slug
parent_uuid	top-level Claude record parentUuid
is_sidechain	top-level Claude record isSidechain
stop_reason	message.stop_reason
stop_sequence	message.stop_sequence
cache_creation	message.usage.cache_creation

tool_calls[].framework_metadata

Stored key	Raw source
caller	assistant.message.content[].caller on tool_use blocks
entrypoint	preserved from the emitting assistant/tool-result record
slug	preserved from the emitting assistant/tool-result record
parent_uuid	preserved from the emitting assistant/tool-result record
is_sidechain	preserved from the emitting assistant/tool-result record

Pi mappings

operational_context.framework_config

Pi currently preserves a small session config blob rather than the larger framework-specific metadata set used by Codex and Claude Code.

Stored key	Raw source
thinking_level	thinking_level_change.thinkingLevel
api	model_change.api or message-level api

turns[].framework_metadata

Stored key	Raw source
stop_reason	message.stopReason
error_message	message.errorMessage

tool_calls[].framework_metadata

Stored key	Raw source
diff	toolResult.details.diff
first_changed_line	toolResult.details.firstChangedLine

Notes

• These metadata keys are intentionally framework-specific. They are preserved for analysis and debugging, but they are not guaranteed to exist across adapters.
• First-class fields should be reserved for values with stable cross-framework meaning. For example, output.exit_code and input.justification were promoted because they are directly queryable and have clear semantics.
• If a field graduates from metadata into the shared schema later, this page should be updated to document both the first-class field and any metadata retained for backward compatibility.
