Agent config contains the configuration specs for the Hypertrace agents.
In order to make sure compatibility across languages and versions, the following conventions must be followed:
- All messages and fields should include a comment, describing what the field describes and/or the effect on a certain value, e.g. "secure when false, permits connecting to the trace endpoint without a certificate"
- Fields must not be removed, if there is a need to deprecate a config settings, the field should be marked as deprecated.
- Fields should not depend on each others, every field should be independent and self contained to avoid config logic in the libraries.
- Config must not be modified in runtime by the user through code.
