 ## Control payload capture
 
-Tool arguments and successful tool results are not captured by default. Turn them on for a transport only when that content is safe to send:
+From version 0.3.0, `tools/call` spans record the tool arguments and the tool result. This includes a result marked `isError`, whose content usually says why the tool failed. Earlier versions record them only with `capturePayloads: true`, and never record the content of a failed result.
+
+The core SDK's settings decide what reaches the span:
+
+- `captureInput: false` drops the arguments.
+- `captureOutput: false` drops the result.
+- `mask` and `maxAttributeLength` apply to both.
+
+To keep tool content out of one transport while the SDK captures other content, turn payload capture off:
 
 ```ts
 const transport = instrumentMcpTransport(mcpTransport, {
-  capturePayloads: true,
+  capturePayloads: false,
 });
 ```
 
-The core SDK's `captureInput`, `captureOutput`, `mask`, and `maxAttributeLength` settings still apply. `capturePayloads` lets tool content reach those controls; it does not override them. A failed tool result is marked as an error, but its content is not captured as output.
-
-With payload capture off, method names, tool and prompt names, resource URIs, request and session IDs, and error details are still recorded. Keep secrets out of those fields.
+Error codes and the JSON-RPC error message are recorded with every setting, and `captureOutput: false` and `mask` do not apply to them. Method names, tool and prompt names, resource URIs, and request and session IDs are also recorded with every setting. Keep secrets out of those fields.
