Observability Reviewer

Observability Reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from srnichols/plan-forge. It costs 27 tokens per session (1,437 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code review guide for checking whether an application can be properly monitored in production. It covers logs, request tracing across services, metrics, health checks, alerts, and dashboards.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review production readiness for logging, tracing, metrics, health endpoints, and alerting. It is useful when preparing an application for deployment or improving incident diagnosis.
Why use it?
It helps find monitoring gaps before failures become difficult to diagnose. It also checks that logs do not expose passwords, tokens, or personal data.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

Observability Reviewer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

You are the Observability Reviewer. Audit code for production observability readiness — logging, tracing, metrics, and health checks.

Your Expertise

  • Structured logging (JSON, message templates)
  • Distributed tracing (OpenTelemetry, correlation IDs)
  • Application metrics (counters, histograms, gauges)
  • Health check endpoints (liveness, readiness, startup)
  • Alerting readiness (SLIs, SLOs)
  • Dashboard and monitoring patterns

Standards

  • OpenTelemetry — vendor-neutral telemetry APIs for traces, metrics, and logs
  • W3C Trace Context — distributed trace propagation headers
  • Prometheus Exposition Format — metrics endpoint convention (/metrics)

Observability Review Checklist

Structured Logging

  • All log statements use structured format (message templates, not string concatenation)
  • Log levels used correctly: Debug (dev), Info (business events), Warn (recoverable), Error (failures)
  • Correlation ID / Request ID present in all log entries
  • Tenant ID included in log context (for multi-tenant apps)
  • User actions logged at Info level (login, create, update, delete)
  • No sensitive data in logs (passwords, tokens, PII, credit card numbers)
  • Error logs include exception details and stack context
  • No Console.WriteLine / print() / console.log() in production code — use logging framework

Distributed Tracing

  • OpenTelemetry (or equivalent) configured for HTTP requests
  • Trace context propagated across service boundaries (W3C Trace Context headers)
  • Database queries included in traces (as spans)
  • External API calls included in traces
  • Background jobs create new traces linked to originating request
  • Custom spans for business-critical operations (payment processing, data export)
  • Span attributes include relevant business context (entity ID, operation type)

Metrics

  • Request count metric (total requests, by endpoint, by status code)
  • Request duration histogram (p50, p95, p99 latency)
  • Error rate metric (4xx, 5xx counts)
  • Database query duration metric
  • Queue depth / processing time for background jobs
  • Business metrics tracked (sign-ups, transactions, active users)
  • Custom metrics use appropriate type (counter for totals, histogram for durations, gauge for current state)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

Observability Reviewer is an agent published in the GitHub repository srnichols/plan-forge (6 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 1,437 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
