In one embodiment, a device performs a detection stage of an automated instrumentation pipeline during which the device detects an application server type by examining a command line of a process of an application. The device performs, based on the application server type, an extraction stage of the automated instrumentation pipeline during which the device extracts application server attributes. The device performs, based on the application server attributes, a naming stage of the automated instrumentation pipeline during which the device forms a naming hierarchy for processes of the application. The detection stage, the extraction stage, and the naming stage of the automated instrumentation pipeline do not have access to a controlled space of the application. The device inserts, based in part on the naming hierarchy, arguments into command lines of processes of the application that cause the processes of the application to be instrumented at runtime.
