Update the docker/telemetry sample config and testing guide to set
trace_peer=1, matching the new on-by-default behavior and the other
trace categories already enabled in these all-categories sample profiles.

Update the Peer Spans note, the known-gaps caveat, and the trace category
toggle table to show trace_peer enabled by default. The Production Setup
example keeps trace_peer=0 as a deliberate high-volume opt-out alongside
sampling_ratio=0.01.

Reflect the new on-by-default behavior in the config defaults table. The
volume-reduction guidance (High memory usage, Production mainnet tuning)
intentionally keeps trace_peer=0 as an opt-out recommendation for
high-traffic deployments.

Flip the tracePeer Setup default and the trace_peer config parser
default from off to on, and update the example config and build doc to
match. Peer spans record only peer_id (a node-local numeric connection
id) plus trust/ledger metadata — no IP addresses or public keys — so
the privacy concern behind disabling it does not apply. The high-volume
characteristic is retained in the docs.

Flip trace_peer default false->true across the Phase-1a plan docs and
correct the rationale: peer spans record only peer_id (numeric local
connection id) plus trust/ledger metadata, never IP addresses or public
keys, so the 'includes addresses' caveat was inaccurate. The high-volume
note is retained.

The existing apply-pipeline panels show latency by stage (all types
combined) or by type (single span). Neither answers "for a given
transaction type, which stage dominates its latency". Add a p95 panel
grouped by both tx_type and stage, filterable via the $tx_type and
$stage variables. Both dimensions already exist in spanmetrics, so no
collector change is needed. Reflow the section so the full-width
failure panel sits below the new full-width panel.

Wire the apply-pipeline stage spans (tx.preflight, tx.preclaim,
tx.transactor) added on phase-3 through the observability stack so the
spanmetrics connector produces per-stage RED metrics without any native
instruments.
- collector: add the `stage` dimension to the spanmetrics connector so
the three stages split into separate metric series (3 bounded values).
- dashboard: add a "Tx Apply Pipeline" section to transaction-overview
with rate, p95 latency, and failure-rate panels grouped by stage, plus
a `stage` template variable. Panels follow the existing config (node
filter, exported_instance legends, Title Case, axis labels).
- The failure panel filters ter_result != tesSUCCESS rather than span
status, because a failing ter code completes the span normally — only
thrown exceptions set an error status. This matches the existing
"Transaction Results by Type" panel convention.
- docs: document the spans, attributes, and stage dimension in the data
collection reference and runbook, including the sampling caveat that
span-derived metrics inherit tracer head-sampling and undercount at
sampling_ratio < 1.

The tx.transactor span covered only the apply stage; preflight and
preclaim had no telemetry, so a transaction that hard-failed those
stages produced no apply-pipeline span and per-stage latency/failure
was invisible.
Add tx.preflight and tx.preclaim spans in applySteps.cpp via a
makeStageSpan() helper using SpanGuard::hashSpan, so all three stages
share a deterministic trace_id derived from txID[0:16] even though they
run sequentially and often cross-thread. Each span carries stage,
tx_type, and ter_result; exceptions are recorded as tefEXCEPTION before
the public wrappers map them. The type lookup is guarded behind the
span-active check so it costs nothing when tracing is off.
Add a stage="apply" attribute to the tx.transactor span and move its
three hardcoded attribute strings to a new library-safe header
include/xrpl/tx/detail/TxApplySpanNames.h, which mirrors the daemon-side
TxSpanNames.h strings so the collector spanmetrics connector aggregates
both span sets under one dimension set.
A constants-contract test pins the span-name, attribute-key, and
stage-value strings; span content stays covered by the docker
integration test, as the rest of the telemetry suite is.

From the code-review pass:
- transaction-overview.json: the tx.process and tx.transactor latency-by-type
panels used lowercase legends (p95/p50) without the per-node dimension. Use
Title Case (P95/P50), add exported_instance to the by() clause, and include
[{{exported_instance}}] in the legend, per the dashboard legend convention.
- consensus-health.json: panel descriptions still referenced the old dotted
attribute names (xrpl.consensus.mode, xrpl.ledger.seq) after the A1 rename;
update them to the bare emitted names (consensus_mode, ledger_seq).

The consensus state-machine and TxQ lifecycle spans are emitted by the code
and present in Prometheus, but no panel visualised them. Add panels keyed on
those span_names (verified live) plus the low-cardinality dimensions needed to
break them down.
Consensus Health (consensus-health.json) — new rows:
- Consensus Round Duration (full round, p95/p50, mode-filterable)
- Consensus Phase Duration (open vs establish breakdown)
- Position Update Duration (update_positions p95/p50)
- Consensus Stall Rate (consensus.check by consensus_stalled)
- Consensus Mode-Change Rate by Target Mode (mode_change by mode_new)
Transaction Overview (transaction-overview.json) — new rows:
- TxQ Enqueue Rate by Transaction Type (txq.enqueue by tx_type)
- Queue Bypass Ratio (txq.apply_direct vs txq.enqueue)
- Queue Accept (Drain) Duration per Ledger (txq.accept p95/p50)
- Queue Cleanup Rate (txq.cleanup expired entries)
otel-collector-config.yaml — add spanmetrics dimensions for the lifecycle
breakdowns: mode_new, consensus_stalled, consensus_phase, consensus_result
(all bounded value sets, safe as Prometheus labels).
All new panels follow the existing dashboard template: $node filter,
exported_instance in every legend, Title Case, axis labels, row layout.

The spanmetrics connector dimension was `xrpl.consensus.mode`, but the code
emits the span attribute under the bare key `consensus_mode` (matching every
other dimension after the Phase 6 rename). The mismatch left the
`xrpl_consensus_mode` Prometheus label empty, so the Consensus Health
"Consensus Mode Over Time" panel and the `$consensus_mode` template variable
(which filters every panel) matched no live series.
- otel-collector-config.yaml: dimension `xrpl.consensus.mode` -> `consensus_mode`
- consensus-health.json: 11 label refs `xrpl_consensus_mode` -> `consensus_mode`
(the `$consensus_mode` Grafana variable name is unchanged)
- telemetry-runbook.md: refresh the stale spanmetrics label table to the bare
names actually emitted (command/rpc_status/consensus_mode/local/
proposal_trusted/validation_trusted), fix dotted->bare attribute names in
span tables and TraceQL examples (tx_hash, ledger_seq, consensus_round_id,
consensus_ledger_id, consensus_round, tx_id event attr), correct the
consensus_round_id query to int (not quoted string), and fix the
load_type value query ("exception_rpc" -> "exceptioned RPC").
Verified against the live stack: Tempo span tags confirm bare attribute keys
(consensus_mode, ledger_seq, tx_hash, ...); the populated xrpl_consensus_mode
series in Prometheus is stale retained data from an older build.

The three duration heatmaps (transaction, consensus accept, RPC latency)
had an axisLabel of "Duration (ms)" but no unit code, so y-axis tick
values rendered unscaled. Set unit=ms on both the yAxis options and
panel defaults so buckets display as proper millisecond values.

Adds template variables $tx_type, $ter_result, $txq_status to the
Transaction Overview dashboard. All relevant panels now respect these
filters, enabling operators to drill into specific transaction types
or result codes.
Changes:
- Panel 2 renamed to "Transaction Processing Latency by Type" (now
shows p95/p50 per tx_type instead of aggregate)
- Panels 1,3,4,5,7,9,12 filter by $tx_type
- Panel 10 filters by $tx_type and $ter_result
- Panel 11 filters by $txq_status
- Removed redundant "TX Processing Latency by Type (p95)" panel

Shows p95 latency of tx.process span broken down by tx_type. Works for
both received and locally-processed transactions, unlike the tx.transactor
panel which requires the node to be synced and applying.

The OTel C++ SDK's SetAttribute appends rather than overwrites on
in-flight spans. Setting suppressed=false as a default then overriding
to true resulted in both values appearing in the exported span.
Fix: remove the default-false set, place suppressed=false once after
the HashRouter check passes (non-suppressed path), and suppressed=true
remains only in the suppressed path.

Collector config: add tx_type, ter_result, txq_status, consensus_state,
load_type, is_batch as spanmetrics dimensions so they appear as
Prometheus labels for dashboard queries.
New dashboard panels:
- Transaction Overview: Rate by Type, Results by Type, TxQ Status (pie),
Transactor Duration p95 by Type
- Consensus Health: Outcome Distribution (pie), Failures Over Time
- RPC Performance: Resource Cost by Command, Batch vs Single
