Opinionated judgment for instrumentation, logging, tracing, alerting, and production feedback. Use when deciding what telemetry to capture, designing a log record or event vocabulary, choosing operation boundaries, evaluating sampling and aggregation, designing alerts or service objectives, choosing or adding a telemetry tool, investigating a production outcome, or when a change adds or alters an operation whose outcome matters in production, even if nobody asked for telemetry.
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 **The goal is explainability. The evidence needed to explain a production outcome exists, and a fresh investigator can find it.** The investigator did not write the code. Without the author's memory and without reading the source, they must establish three things: what happened, whom it affected, and what separated the failed work from the work that succeeded. Load `references/vocabulary.md` when you define an SLI or SLO, or choose among metrics, records, and traces. ## Every record is structured **Use the project's existing logger; do not add a second one.** If there is none, use the language's standard structured logger, writing JSON to stdout or stderr. **Never write an unstructured log line**: interpolated values are data thrown away. A record has a literal event name, typed fields, a time, and a severity. **Fix each field's meaning, type, and unit across the codebase.** `result` is one of `succeeded`, `failed`, `skipped`, `retried`, `degraded`, `unknown`. A **reason code** comes from a closed list declared in one place: `payment.failure.reason_code: card_declined`. Often the domain's event names are …

How to install
mdr add usetemi/skills/observability@sha256:1e1d6b74f03facecThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260930.625c48f, 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.
