 2. **Set the low-cardinality name when the span _starts_** — and at every later site that could write a high-cardinality name onto it. Never rewrite names retroactively (not in `captureSpan`, not in `spanToJSON`, not in a `processSpan`/`preprocessSpan` hook). A span must never carry a raw URL.

+4. **Only the name and its description change.** Do not touch `sentry.source`, `url.template`, `http.route`, or any other attribute — they keep describing where the name came from. The two exceptions are `sentry.description` and the single attribute the op's description template reads (see step 1); both exist to preserve what the name gave up.
 5. **Do not derive the name from attributes in code.** The conventions describe names as attribute templates, but you implement them by reusing the value the site _already_ has for `url.template` / `http.route`. No attribute lookups, no generic template resolver.
 6. **No helpers, no abstraction.** An inline ternary at each site. A shared `const` for the fallback string is fine (and required, see rule 6); a function that sets names or attributes is not.
 7. **The fallback must never reach `scope.setTransactionName`.** The scope's transaction name is what error events are grouped by, so it keeps the raw URL or the parameterized route — never `Pageload`/`Navigation`/etc. Export the fallback as a constant from `packages/core/src/tracing/spans/spanNames.ts` so the guard cannot drift.

 Add it next to `PAGELOAD_SPAN_NAME_FALLBACK` in `packages/core/src/tracing/spans/spanNames.ts` and export it from `shared-exports.ts`. Every package imports it from `@sentry/core` directly — no re-export from `@sentry/browser` is needed.
 
+### Then look up the description rules
+
+The name is only half the contract. Relay re-derives a span's **description** from its attributes using the [span description rules](https://getsentry.github.io/sentry-conventions/descriptions/) — a separate, much shorter set of templates from the name rules. `function`, for example, has exactly one (`{{code.function.name}}`) and no static fallback, so a `function` span with no `code.function.name` gets no inferred description at all.
+
+Renaming a span therefore drops information unless you check what the op's description template can still produce. For each site, in this order:
+
+1. **The template rebuilds the old name from attributes the site already sets** — do nothing, Relay infers it.
+2. **It rebuilds it from an attribute the site could legitimately set** — set that attribute. Only when the value genuinely describes the span, never to smuggle the old name into an attribute that means something else.
+3. **It cannot** — set `sentry.description` (`SENTRY_DESCRIPTION` from `@sentry/conventions/attributes`) to the name the span had before.
+
+Case 3 must only be applied if case 1 or 2 do not work for the span: the templates are generic, and most old names were framework-specific strings the conventions cannot express (`serverAction/updateUser`, `Scheduled Cron */5 * * * *`, `Fetcher fetcher-1`).
+
+```ts
+// Relay infers a `function` span's description from `code.function.name` alone, which drops the route.
+...(hasSpanStreaming && { [SENTRY_DESCRIPTION]: routePattern }),
+```
+
+Two constraints on the description:
+
+- **Set it on the streaming branch only**, gated by the same `hasSpanStreamingEnabled` check as the name. In transaction mode the description already equals the name, and writing it changes nothing.
+- **Descriptions may be high cardinality** — the `http.server` templates end in `url.full`. The raw URL, route or id that the name gave up belongs here. This is the one place the cardinality rule does not apply.
+
 ## 2. Find every site that names a span with this op
 
 Be exhaustive; a missed site is a raw URL in production.
 
+Most sites set the op to the constant from `@sentry/conventions/op` (`FUNCTION`, `HTTP_SERVER`, ...), not to a string literal, so grep for both spellings:
+
 ```bash
-# span starts
-grep -rn "SEMANTIC_ATTRIBUTE_SENTRY_OP\]: '<op>'\|SENTRY_OP\]: '<op>'\|op: '<op>'" packages/*/src
+# span starts, via the op constant

+Neither grep finds an op that reaches the span through a variable, and those are the sites that get missed. Enumerate them by hand — list every file importing the op constant (`grep -rln "<OP_CONST>" packages/*/src`) and follow the ones that never spell out a span start:
+
+- **shared wrappers** taking the op as an option — `spanOp: FUNCTION` handed to cloudflare's `wrapMethodWithSentry`
+- **helpers computing the op** — `getGenAiSpanOp(operation)` returns `function` for any unrecognized gen-AI operation
+- **defaults on public APIs** — `SentryTraced(op: string = 'function')` in `@sentry/nestjs`
+
+Cross-check the total against the renames too: a `updateSpanName` in a different file can rewrite a span whose op is set elsewhere (`tanstackstart-react`'s global function middleware renames the span that `wrapFetchWithSentry` starts), and it will not appear in any op grep.
