When dataset or manifest identifiers contain :, concatenating them this way is ambiguous even before SHA-256 is applied. For example, dataset a with clip b:stt:c and dataset a:stt:b with clip c both hash the seed a:stt:b:stt:c; publishing both in one Langfuse project therefore sends the same item ID, so the second publish must update/conflict with the first instead of creating an independent dataset item. Hash a structured or length-prefixed tuple rather than delimiter-joined user-controlled values.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

trace_idslice against a short input.
&trace_id[..16]panics if the caller passes fewer than 16 bytes. All current callers pass a 32-character hex id fromtrace_id_for, so the code is safe today. The function signature does not enforce that. Add an explicit check so a future caller fails with a message instead of a panic.🛡️ Proposed guard

388-394: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winConsider retrying transport errors too.
The helpers retry only HTTP 429 and 5xx. A
ureq::Error::Transport(connection reset, read timeout, DNS failure) returns immediately. Those failures are also transient and are common causes of a failed publish. If you keep the current scope, the PR description wording "transient Langfuse failures" is accurate only for status-coded failures.♻️ Sketch for transport retry

963-1060: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low valueTwo coverage gaps and one misleading seed.
- No test asserts the central claim: the same
run_nameandrun_keyproduce the same trace id across calls. Add a direct equality assertion ontrace_id_for.- No test asserts that a non-retryable status (for example 400) sends exactly one request.
- The seeds in the trace tests use a
trace:prefix.publish_runbuilds the seed as"{dataset_name}:{run_name}:{run_key}"with notrace:prefix. The tests still pass because they only need a 32-character hex string, but the literal suggests a seed format that the code does not use.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
