[bot] Add Griptape integration for Agent/Pipeline/Workflow run() and Tool execution instrumentation #599

Description

@braintrust-bot

Summary

griptape is a Python framework for building AI agents/workflows out of composable Structure types (Agent, Pipeline, Workflow), each executed via .run(), with a Tools system for LLM tool-calling during execution. It is actively maintained (latest release 1.11.0, July 14, 2026; PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/griptape/). This repository has zero instrumentation for it — no integration directory, no wrapper, no nox session, no matrix entry.

This is directly comparable in scope to other agent/workflow frameworks already instrumented in this repo (Agno, CrewAI, AutoGen, AgentScope, Strands) — a run()-driven execution surface composed of sequential/parallel tasks with tool-calling — but Griptape itself has no coverage at all.

What needs to be instrumented

  • Agent.run(), Pipeline.run(), Workflow.run() — primary execution entrypoints for each Structure type (Pipeline runs tasks sequentially, Workflow runs tasks in parallel); each should produce a parent span.
  • Task execution within a structure (e.g. PromptTask, ToolTask) — child spans capturing per-task input/output, mirroring the step-level detail captured for other agent frameworks in this repo.
  • Tool invocations (Griptape's Tools system, e.g. built-in tools like Calculator, WebSearch, or custom tools) — a tool-calling execution surface parallel to what's already captured for CrewAI/AutoGen/Agno.
  • The underlying LLM/Prompt driver calls (OpenAiChatPromptDriver, AnthropicPromptDriver, etc.) driving each PromptTask, to the extent they aren't already covered by this repo's existing provider-level wrappers.
