…he event A promoted key left at None in **fields reached the wire as an explicit JSON null, so _validate_promoted_string refused it. But None is how a caller says "I have no value", and the refusal landed inside their emit helper — which swallows telemetry errors, because telemetry must not break a run. The event vanished with nothing logged. agent_end(error_type=None) is the shape every SUCCESSFUL run produces: error_type is populated only on a failing outcome. Found against a real multi-agent app, where it dropped agent_end for every session that succeeded, leaving a dangling agent_start, no outcome, and no evaluation — the server triggers evaluation on agent_end. The same fix closes the mirror bug on promoted numerics. _build omits None only from a dataclass's named `specifics`; `extra` is merged verbatim. So duration_ms=None was dropped as a named parameter and written as an explicit null through **fields — same value, two outcomes, decided by which door it came through. Both paths now agree: for a promoted column, no value means no key. Dropped with a warning rather than silently: passing None is still a mistake worth hearing about, it just must not cost the event.

The new SDK and daemon redaction boundaries behave as intended in contained smoke coverage. One existing PR behavior remains inconsistent with the promised omission of promoted None fields: closing APIs reject duration_ms=None before validation can omit it. What this changesflowchart LR

duration_ms=Noneis still rejected on closing events —tool_result,hook_completed,human_input, andagent_resumereject anyduration_mskey before calling_validate_fields, so theirduration_ms=Noneextras never reach the new omission-and-warning loop. An isolated container reproduced the rejection for all four methods. The added numeric test only invokesagent_start, where duration is not auto-computed. (sdk/python/failproofai_sdk/_events.py:393)

- Medium/High Closing event APIs still reject duration_ms=None — tool_result, agent_resume, hook_completed, and human_input each raise when duration_ms is present before calling _validate_fields (first at sdk/python/failproofai_sdk/_events.py:393). Consequently duration_ms=None never reaches the new promoted-field omission loop. A container smoke check reproduced the rejection for all four methods. (

Preserve dictionary keys when identifying secret values.
The dictionary branch passes only values to scrub_string. Therefore, an opaque value such as {"password": "abcdefghijklmnop"} remains in the spool.
Pass the key into the scrubber. Redact values under secret-identifying keys when they meet the minimum length. Apply the same rule in the Rust redactor and add regression tests for password, secret, *_key, and *_token fields.

Redact credential-shaped JSON keys before spooling.
redact_json_line() scrubs dictionary values but preserves dictionary keys. A nested key such as "API_KEY=abcdefghijklmnop" can remain in the JSONL spool. Scrub dictionary keys recursively and add this case to the spool-redaction test.

Summary
This PR hardens the FailproofAI telemetry path at the Python SDK and daemon boundaries:
No event types, server schema, ingest API, or application instrumentation contract changes.
Problem
Dropped completion events
Optional promoted fields supplied through custom fields were validated as explicit JSON null values. The SDK rejected the entire event instead of omitting the absent field.
A common example is a successful agent_end with no error_type. In best-effort integrations the validation exception could be swallowed, leaving an agent_start without its matching agent_end and preventing downstream evaluation.
Credentials in telemetry payloads
Telemetry payloads can contain API keys, bearer tokens, JWTs, GitHub tokens, AWS access-key IDs, and secret assignments. Those values needed protection both at rest in the SDK spool and at the final upload boundary.
Changes
Python SDK
Daemon and uploader
Documentation
Redaction behavior
Redaction covers recognized credential shapes, including:
Redaction recursively examines string values inside dictionaries and lists. It does not claim to remove arbitrary PII or regulated content.
Compatibility
Validation
All checks on the current head are green:
The Python SDK suite reported 998 passed and 6 skipped for the event-preservation change. Focused tests cover recursive redaction, configuration defaults and opt-out behavior, multibyte secrets, pre-write SDK protection, and pre-upload daemon protection.
