ml4t-monitoring-alerting skillA

ml4t-monitoring-alerting is agent-read markdown (skill) from ml4t/skills: Real-time monitoring and alerting for live trading systems. Use when building observability for data pipelines, model drift, or execution quality..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Monitoring and Alerting

Checking performance at end-of-day is too late. A stuck data feed, a rejected order, or a flash crash can cause irreversible losses in minutes. Automated real-time monitoring catches problems when they are still small.

## The Problem

A strategy runs in production. The data feed silently stalls at 10:15 AM - the strategy stops generating signals but nobody notices until 4 PM. By then, the portfolio has drifted and missed the day's best opportunities. Worse: a position limit was breached because a partial fill was not tracked, and the strategy doubled down. End-of-day review catches the problem 6 hours too late.

## The Pattern

### WRONG
```python
# End-of-day check - too late for anything but damage assessment
def daily_report():
    pnl = portfolio.value() - portfolio.start_of_day_value()
    if pnl < -10_000:
        send_email("Bad day", f"Lost ${abs(pnl):,.0f}")
schedule.every().day.at("16:30").do(daily_report)  # 6+ hours after it started
```

### CORRECT
```python
import time
from dataclasses import dataclass
from datetime import UTC, datetime

@dataclass
class AlertThresholds:
    max_drawdown: float = 0.05         # 5% intraday drawdown
…
