Metrics Review

Metrics Review is a skill for Claude Code from robisson/build-like-amazon-agent-skills. It costs 21 tokens per session (1,926 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A regular review of the numbers that describe a product or system, such as service health, usage, or customer experience. It looks for trends, early signs of problems, and evidence that changes had the intended effect.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for weekly or monthly health reviews, after major deployments, during capacity planning, and when investigating customer trends. It can also support launch preparation and checks on past improvements.
Why use it?
It helps teams find degradation before it becomes an incident and separate meaningful changes from normal variation. It replaces guesses about system or business health with measured evidence.

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

Metrics Review 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 11d 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.

Metrics Review

Overview

Metrics review is the practice of regularly examining operational and business metrics to identify trends, detect degradation early, validate improvements, and drive data-informed decisions. Unlike incident response (reactive), metrics review is proactive—you're looking for problems before they become incidents and confirming that improvements are having the desired effect. Good metrics review distinguishes signal from noise and leads to concrete actions.

When to Use

  • Weekly or monthly as a recurring service health review
  • After deploying a significant change (did it improve what we expected?)
  • When planning capacity or architecture changes
  • When evaluating the effectiveness of past improvements
  • When investigating customer experience trends
  • When preparing for a launch or traffic event

Amazon Context

Amazon is deeply metrics-driven. The phrase "in God we trust, all others bring data" captures the culture. Anecdotes and opinions don't drive decisions—metrics do. But metrics can also mislead if you look at the wrong ones, use the wrong aggregation, or ignore confounding factors. A skilled metrics review requires understanding what the metric actually measures, what can influence it, and what actions the metric should trigger. Amazon engineers are expected to know their service's metrics cold and explain any movement.

The Process

Metric Categories

Customer Experience Metrics (primary — these matter most)

  • Availability: percentage of requests served successfully
  • Latency: p50, p90, p99, p99.9 — each tells a different story
  • Error rate: 5xx (your fault), 4xx anomalies (possibly your fault)
  • Throughput: requests per second (traffic health)
  • Business success rate: conversions, completions, deliveries

Operational Health Metrics

  • MTTD: Mean Time to Detect problems
  • MTTR: Mean Time to Recover from problems
  • Deployment frequency: How often you deploy (higher = smaller, safer changes)
  • Rollback rate: What percentage of deploys rollback (lower = better pipeline)
  • Change failure rate: Deploys that cause incidents
  • On-call page count: Toil indicator

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.
