# OpenTelemetry Ecosystem Explorer

<!-- llms-full-txt-link: /llms-full.txt -->

> This site contains metadata about the OpenTelemetry ecosystem.

For agent consumption, we provide index files that point to our structured JSON datasets:

- [Collector Components](/agent/collector/index.md)
- [Collector Versions](/agent/collector/versions.md)
- [Java Agent Instrumentations](/agent/javaagent/index.md)
- [Java Agent Versions](/agent/javaagent/versions.md)

**For a single-file version of all documentation, see [llms-full.txt](/llms-full.txt).**

## Data Schemas

To help agents parse our JSON data, we provide the following JSON Schemas:

- [Collector Component Schema](/schemas/collector-component.schema.json)
- [Java Agent Instrumentation Schema](/schemas/javaagent-instrumentation.schema.json)

## Navigation Patterns

Agents can fetch specific component data using the following URL patterns:

- **Collector Components**: `/data/collector/components/{id}/{id}-{hash}.json`
- **Java Agent Instrumentations**: `/data/javaagent/instrumentations/{id}/{id}-{hash}.json`

The {hash} for the latest version can be obtained from the version index files:
- **Collector**: `/data/collector/versions/{version}-index.json`
- **Java Agent**: `/data/javaagent/versions/{version}-index.json`

Refer to `/data/collector/versions-index.json` or `/data/javaagent/versions-index.json` to find the latest {version} and its corresponding component-to-hash mapping.

## Version Comparison Guide

To find what changed in a component between versions, compare its hash in the two version index JSONs; different hashes mean the component changed.
