Qualify cloud lifecycle telemetry alongside existing SDK events

[sanchitmonga22]

Overview

SDK telemetry manager and hidden emit/blast are implemented; the earlier cloud-telemetry requirement has no demonstrated install/login/harness lifecycle coverage.

Priority: P2 / post-mvp. Impact: roadmap improvement. Initial planning estimate: Medium; refine after inventory. This issue does not add a release blocker.

Design and implementation plan

Inventory existing events and gaps before adding a minimal cloud lifecycle schema; reuse SDK telemetry and correlate nonsecret request IDs, avoiding synchronous analytics on token delivery.

1. Reconcile the current implementation and any already completed work with the evidence above.
2. Record the owner, selected scope, dependencies and unresolved decisions before implementation.
3. Implement or execute the selected scope using existing components and artifacts.
4. Attach reproducible validation or outcome evidence and record any deferred work.

Acceptance criteria

• Inventory configured/emitted/delivered cloud lifecycle events and prove test-account delivery.
• Exclude prompts, credentials and access tokens; define opt-out/retention.
• Bound queues/flush failures and prove telemetry outage does not block normal inference.

Related work and deduplication

No existing issue has this acceptance scope; existing release defects remain separate.
