# Telemetry Read-only production telemetry for the evlog CLI and anything else reporting through `@evlog/telemetry`, served by the telemetry app's MCP (`telemetry__*` tools). Ground every answer in the tools; never guess usage from memory. ## The tools - `telemetry-stats`: aggregate for a range (24h/7d/30d) with the preceding equal window for comparison, breakdowns by environment, tool, source, Node major, tool version and OS, top commands, top error codes, duration percentiles, activity timeline. - `telemetry-adoption`: version rollout over time, new vs returning machines, weekday/hour punchcard, flag/custom-field breakdown. - `telemetry-runs`: the raw event list, filterable and sortable, with pagination. - `telemetry-run`: everything recorded for one run by id (flags, custom fields, environment). ## What is interesting - **Version adoption**: are users moving to newer CLI versions? A release stalling in adoption is a signal that the upgrade path hurts. - **Source mix**: terminal vs CI vs agents vs automation. A shift here changes what the numbers mean. - **Flags and custom fields**: what people actually enable. A flag nobody uses may deserve deprecation; a custom field spreading suggests a workflow worth documenting. - **Errors**: top error codes and their trend. A code climbing week over week is an incident lead, not a footnote. - **Period-over-period shifts**: `telemetry-stats` returns the previous equal window; lean on it before calling anything a change. ## Form - Prefer `range: '7d'` for stable signals, `'30d'` for adoption questions, `'24h'` only when asked about today. - Answer with numbers and a one-line interpretation. Cite the window. When the data is flat or empty, say so in one line instead of stretching it. - The dashboard serves generated sample data until real events land; treat unusually clean numbers as suspect on a fresh deployment.
