python-observability SKILL.md skillA

python-observability from jartan-llc/grimoire is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add jartan-llc/grimoire/python-observability@git:20260731.f6add68

Pins git:20260731.f6add68 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Python observability patterns including structured logging, metrics, and distributed tracing.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Python Observability

Instrument Python applications with structured logs, metrics, and traces. When something breaks in production, you need to answer "what, where, and why" without deploying new code.

## Core Concepts

### 1. Structured Logging

Emit logs as JSON with consistent fields for production environments. Machine-readable logs enable powerful queries and alerts. For local development, consider human-readable formats.

### 2. The Four Golden Signals

Track latency, traffic, errors, and saturation for every service boundary.

### 3. Correlation IDs

Thread a unique ID through all logs and spans for a single request, enabling end-to-end tracing.

### 4. Bounded Cardinality

Keep metric label values bounded. Unbounded labels (like user IDs) explode storage costs.

## Quick Start

```python
import structlog

structlog.configure(
    processors=[
        structlog.processors.TimeStamper(fmt="iso"),
        structlog.processors.JSONRenderer(),
    ],
)

logger = structlog.get_logger()
logger.info("Request processed", user_id="123", duration_ms=45)
```

## Fundamental Patterns

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jartan-llc/grimoire/python-observability@sha256:539d4b1ed9349c09

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260731.f6add68, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
