Structured log correlation for end-to-end request tracing

Summary

Adds request_id propagation and structured logging to the Template-UI for end-to-end request tracing across all layers (Gateway → Template-UI → Agent Pod).

Changes

  • trace.plugin.ts: Read X-Request-ID from gateway header instead of generating a new UUID. Create Pino child logger with request_id + trace_id so every log line includes them for Sumologic correlation.
  • proxy.router.ts: Forward X-Request-ID to agent pod in all 4 proxy header blocks. Switch from fastify.log to request.log so every proxy log line includes request_id and trace_id from the child logger.
  • auth-check.plugin.ts: Replace console.error with request.log.error for structured LDAP role resolution failure logging.

Verification

Tested on Kind cluster with BMI agent (browser chat path):

  • request_id flows Gateway → Template-UI (SAME value via X-Request-ID header)
  • request_id flows Template-UI → Agent Pod (SAME value via X-Request-ID header)
  • thread_id appears as structured field in Template-UI logs
  • All proxy log lines include request_id and trace_id

Backward Compatibility

All changes are additive. If gateway doesn't send X-Request-ID, falls back to randomUUID(). If agent pod doesn't read X-Request-ID, it's ignored. request.log is the same Pino instance as fastify.log with additional child context.

LOC: ~30 lines | Risk: Low — additive logging only

Walkthrough

The trace plugin uses the x-request-id header when its value is truthy. Otherwise, it generates a UUID. Proxy routes forward the request ID and use request-scoped logging. LDAP role-resolution failures also use the request logger.

Suggested reviewers: vishnusrichand

Change: Feature

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to bd705

Request IDs are forwarded on proxy calls, although automatic lifecycle logs still lack the scoped IDs. No PR-introduced blocking regression is established.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Return the request ID on streaming responses: after reply.hijack(), Fastify skips the trace plugin’s onSend hook, and this raw header block omits X-Request-ID, so the browser cannot obtain the gateway request ID for its chat stream. (fastify.dev)
