Use when writing or reviewing request handlers, RPCs, or background jobs for production; adding tracing, metrics, or structured-log calls; or making diagnosability decisions.
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
# Observability ## Overview Code that runs fine in dev and goes inert in production is the dominant operational failure mode for modern services. **When you add code that will run for users, you also add the diagnosability of that code: structured logs, trace context across process boundaries, metrics with bounded cardinality, signals an operator can read without your help.** This is a **rigid** skill. Jump to the sub-section that matches what you're writing and run that sub-section's checks. These checks matter most when adding a request handler, RPC, or background job that will run in production with users depending on diagnosability. In MVPs, prototypes, internal dev tools, and one-off scripts, structured-logging, tracing, and SLO discipline are premature — prefer the simplest thing that works. ## When to invoke Invoke when you're about to: - Add a request handler, RPC method, or background job that will run in production - Add or change `log.info` / `log.warn` / `log.error` calls in code that will run under load - Add tracing instrumentation, span creation, or trace-context propagation - Add or change a metric (counter, gauge, histogram), especially one with labels …

How to install
mdr add oribarilan/97/observability@sha256:9a5e117c19930a35The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260510.17c5ab8, 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.
