| description | Inspects the OrchestKit telemetry pipeline for the current project — lists all known telemetry files with write counts, sizes, schema status, growth trend, and orphan detection. Use when verifying the observability pipeline is healthy, debugging a missing writer, or auditing which files have schema locks vs. which are drift-vulnerable. Read-only — never modifies telemetry files. |

/ork:telemetry-inspect
One-shot health check for OrchestKit's telemetry pipeline. Reports writer activity, file sizes, schema lock coverage, orphan files, and growth warnings. Use when verifying the pipeline is flowing correctly or debugging a missing writer.
When to use
- Before or after a risky hook refactor, to prove telemetry still writes as expected
- Weekly health check on a long-running project
- When
/ork:analytics output looks suspicious — inspect the underlying data first
- When adding a new telemetry file and wanting to confirm it's picked up
- Auditing which files are schema-locked vs. drift-vulnerable
What it checks
- Writer activity — for each registered telemetry file, recent write count (from mtime scan) and last-write delta
- File health — size (warn at 256 KB, critical at 1 MB), line count, mtime
- Schema lock status — which files have validators in
lib/telemetry-schemas.ts
- Orphan detection — files on disk under
.claude/{telemetry,logs,state,feedback}/ that aren't in the registry (possible stale writer or new file needing schema)
- Growth trend — bytes per hour since session start (fire alert if > 100 KB/hr)
Usage
/ork:telemetry-inspect
/ork:telemetry-inspect --session sess-abc123
/ork:telemetry-inspect --json
Default mode: terminal-friendly ASCII report. --json emits a structured result suitable for piping into another tool or uploading.
