+## Milestone 1: State Capture Foundation ✅ COMPLETED (2025-10-17)
+
+**Goal**: Enhanced OTEL spans contain complete execution state
+
+### Completed Tasks
+
+✅ **Implemented `state-capture.ts` module** (`src/telemetry/state-capture.ts`)
+- `captureCheckInputContext()` - Captures Liquid template context (pr, outputs, env, memory)
+- `captureCheckOutput()` - Captures check result/output with type and length info
+- `captureForEachState()` - Captures forEach iteration details (items, index, current)
+- `captureLiquidEvaluation()` - Captures Liquid template evaluation

+
+**Features**:
+- Automatic truncation of large values (max 10KB per attribute)

+### Manual Testing
+
+```bash
+# Enable telemetry
+export VISOR_TELEMETRY_ENABLED=true
+export VISOR_TELEMETRY_SINK=file
+export VISOR_TRACE_DIR=output/traces
+
+# Run visor with a simple config
