# Add LangWatch Tracing to Your Code
## Determine Scope
If the user's request is **general** ("instrument my code", "add tracing", "set up observability"):
- Read the full codebase to understand the agent's architecture
- Study git history to understand what changed and why: focus on agent behavior changes, prompt tweaks, bug fixes. Read commit messages for context.
- Add comprehensive tracing across all LLM call sites
If the user's request is **specific** ("add tracing to the payment function", "trace this endpoint"):
- Focus on the specific function or module
- Add tracing only where requested
