+[messages](#messages) on the `invoke_agent` envelope. Set a switch to `false`
+to drop that one kind, or pass `content: false` to send shape and cost only.
 
 ```ts
 createRuntypeFlueInstrumentation({

+})
+
+// Shape and cost only, no content of any kind:
+createRuntypeFlueInstrumentation({ content: false })

+
+Content makes spans large. Runtype admits at most 384 KiB of content per span
+and 2 MiB per export request, and rejects a request over 8 MiB whole; past the
+2 MiB mark the remaining runs in that request land without their transcript.
+With content on, set your `BatchSpanProcessor`'s `maxExportBatchSize` so one

+
+### Messages
+
+Three switches govern the conversation itself on the `invoke_agent` span, which
+is the span Runtype reads a run's transcript and final output from. All three
+are on unless switched off:
+
+```ts
+createRuntypeFlueInstrumentation({
+  content: {
+    inputMessages: true, // gen_ai.input.messages
+    outputMessages: true, // gen_ai.output.messages
+    systemInstructions: false, // gen_ai.system_instructions
+  },
+})
+```
+
+- **`inputMessages`** is the conversation as the run's _last_ model turn saw
+  it, read from Flue's normalized `turn_request.request.input.messages`: every
+  agent turn replaces the capture, so a user message dispatched mid-run (a
+  signal delivery, `useDispatchMessage()`) is included, and so is the run's own
+  intermediate assistant text. One copy per run, on the envelope. It lands on
+  the run as its transcript and is the seed eval capture freezes a case from.
+- **`outputMessages`** is the assistant text of the _last_ agent turn that
+  produced any, read from `turn.response.output`. A final step that only called
+  tools does not clear an earlier answer, and a failed turn's output is never
+  read. Runtype projects it onto the run's final output.
+- **`systemInstructions`** is `turn_request.request.input.systemPrompt`,
+  sent as one text part (`[{ type: 'text', content }]`) so a prompt that happens
+  to be valid JSON is never re-read as data. It is usually the largest value a
+  run carries and rarely differs between runs, so it is the switch most
+  deployments turn off; Runtype prepends it to the transcript as a `system` row.
+
+Messages are encoded as the GenAI semconv structured-message shape,
+`[{ role, parts: [{ type: 'text', content }] }]`, and they are **text parts
+only**: a `toolResult` message, a tool-call part, a thinking part and an image
+part are dropped, as is any `system` row Flue put in the history (that is what
+`systemInstructions` is for) and any Flue **signal** — Flue delivers its own
+steering (`<signal type="…">…</signal>`, `useAgentFinish` continuations, stream
+recovery) to the model as a user message wrapping one XML element, and those
+are not something the user said. Tool content has its own switches above; the
+rest is never exported. `AgentMessage`, which Flue marks unstable, is still
+never read — the `Llm*` request and response payloads are byte-identical on
+1.x and 2.x.
+
+Over `maxChars`, a message list drops its **oldest** messages whole first, so
+the newest messages survive; a lone message that still does not fit has its
+text cut with the truncation marker, and the JSON stays valid either way. The
+system prompt is cut inside its text part. Because all three share one span,
+each is additionally capped at a third of ingest's per-span ceiling
+(128 KiB), whatever `maxChars` says; at the default ceiling they fit
+comfortably.
+
+### Redaction
+
+`redact` runs on every content value before encoding and truncation. It
+receives the value and a context:
+
+- `{ kind: 'arguments' | 'result', toolName }` with the raw Flue payload;
+- `{ kind: 'input_messages' | 'output_messages' }` with the projected message
+  array (`[{ role, parts: [{ type: 'text', content }] }]`; `{ role, content }`
+  with a string or Flue-style `{ type: 'text', text }` parts is accepted back);
+- `{ kind: 'system_instructions' }` with the prompt string; return a string or
+  text parts (`[{ type: 'text', content | text }]`) — anything else emits
+  nothing, because ingest would discard it silently.
+
+`toolName` is present on the tool kinds and `undefined` on the others, so a
+hook written for 0.4 — `({ kind, toolName }) => …` — keeps compiling; narrow on
+`kind` before relying on it.
+
+Return the value to keep it, a replacement to substitute it, or `undefined` to
+drop that one attribute. If it throws, the attribute is dropped and the span is
+otherwise unaffected.
