Inline comments:
In `@crates/core/src/observability/plugin_component.rs`:
- Around line 1160-1184: Preserve each sink/storage entry’s original
configuration index while filtering in register_atof_exporter and
register_atif_dispatcher. Pass those original indices into
build_atof_sink_config and build_atif_storage, and use them for
SinkLabel::Remote diagnostics so policy filtering does not renumber user-facing
paths or runtime messages.
- Around line 4985-5008: Clamp policy.timeout_millis to the supported maximum
when constructing the timeout in export_target_allowed, so values that bypass
validation cannot cause excessively long waits. Use the existing timeout bound
defined by the export activation policy rather than introducing a new limit,
while preserving the current outcome handling.
In `@crates/core/src/plugin/dynamic/host.rs`:
- Around line 181-202: Update the method documentation describing activation
component ordering to state that dynamic components with ExportActivationPolicy
are placed before the existing static config.components, followed by other
dynamic components. Keep the implementation unchanged and update any related
example in the same documentation if present.
In `@crates/core/tests/unit/observability/plugin_component_tests.rs`:
- Around line 5213-5246: Strengthen
denied_atof_stream_retains_allowed_local_sink by asserting that registrations
contain only the allowed local file sink’s exporter registration and exclude the
denied stream sink. Replace the non-empty check with an exact registration-name
assertion so the test detects both dropped file sinks and incorrectly retained
stream sinks.
In `@crates/node/observability.js`:
- Around line 63-71: Update the returned object in the export activation policy
normalization flow to spread config first, then explicitly assign the validated
timeout value and config default so undefined caller fields cannot overwrite
them. Use the existing timeout variable and preserve the 5000 ms fallback.
In `@crates/plugin/tests/typed_callbacks.rs`:
- Around line 3300-3305: Extend the test around
register_export_activation_policy to invoke callbacks returning
ExportActivationDecision::Deny and an error, then assert the native async
adapter produces the deny wire result and propagates callback errors while
failing closed. Cover the corresponding flow near the additional callback
assertions as well as the existing Allow case.
In `@crates/worker-proto/proto/nemo/relay/worker/v1/plugin_worker.proto`:
- Line 48: Rename every value in the RegistrationSurface enum to use the
REGISTRATION_SURFACE_ prefix, including EXPORT_ACTIVATION_POLICY, then
regenerate the protocol bindings so all generated references match the renamed
enum values.
In `@crates/worker/tests/worker_sdk_tests.rs`:
- Around line 553-555: Add coverage alongside the existing allow assertion for
ExportActivationDecision::Deny and for an invalid payload type or schema,
asserting the expected denial or validation error. Reuse the existing
invoke_json and export_activation_invoke test helpers so the test exercises the
same API path and distinguishes valid allow behavior from denied and malformed
requests.
In `@go/nemo_relay/observability_plugin.go`:
- Around line 264-267: Validate timeout_millis against the inclusive 1–60000
range in NewExportActivationPolicyConfig in
go/nemo_relay/observability_plugin.go, using the package’s existing panic-free
rejection or error-return style. Apply the same validation in
ExportActivationPolicyConfig in python/nemo_relay/observability.py, such as via
__post_init__, so both bindings reject invalid values at construction time. The
Go site and Python site both require direct changes.
In `@python/tests/plugin/test_worker_sdk.py`:
- Around line 1654-1666: Add a second service.Invoke call in the export

Update the activation-order documentation.
Lines 70-71 state that dynamic components are appended after static components. Lines 200-202 now place ExportActivationPolicy components before config.components. Update the method documentation to describe the policy-first ordering.

Assert that the denied stream sink is absent.
assert!(!registrations.is_empty()) passes whenever any sink registers. The same assertion holds if filtering dropped the file sink and kept the stream sink, or if filtering broke entirely. Assert the resulting sink set, for example by checking that only the local file sink produced an exporter registration name.

Add deny and invalid-payload coverage.
The test invokes only the allow path. Add assertions for ExportActivationDecision::Deny and for an invalid payload type or schema. A regression that allows every target or bypasses schema validation will pass this test.
As per path instructions, “Tests should cover the behavior promised by the changed API surface, including error paths.” As per coding guidelines, “When adding new functionality, include tests in the appropriate test files for each affected language binding.”

Timeout-bound validation is missing in the Go and Python policy constructors. crates/node/observability.js rejects timeout_millis outside 1..60000 at construction time; the Go and Python surfaces accept any value, so callers only learn about the problem from Relay validation diagnostics.

Test the deny decision through Invoke.
This test covers only the "allow" response. Add a second invocation with {"enabled": false} and assert that the JSON result is "deny". This validates the deny transport path.

Overview
Adds generic, activation-time export policies for Relay-managed remote observability targets. Native Rust and gRPC worker plugins can allow or deny individual exporters while Relay continues to construct and operate its first-party OTLP, ATOF, and ATIF exporters.
Policies are fail-closed and receive only the target kind and target-local opaque configuration. Relay does not expose exporter destinations, headers, or credentials to policy callbacks.
Details
activation_policyconfiguration to observability version 4 remote targets:export_activation_policymanifest capability and registers them before static observability activation. Registration rollback and teardown remove callbacks before unloading native libraries or stopping workers.EXPORT_ACTIVATION_POLICYregistration surface and versioned request/decision payloads over unaryInvoke.
