Verify C8.2 — Observability

Criterion Definition

Level	Description
0	No access to logs or metrics
1	Read-only access to logs/metrics
2	Queryable monitoring and logs
3	Automated anomaly detection and alerting

Evidence to Gather

• Check dependency manifests for logging libraries appropriate to the project's language and for observability/monitoring SDKs.
• Look for monitoring or observability configuration files (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Sentry, etc.) anywhere in the project.
• Check the MCP server configuration for any observability servers that would allow agents to query logs or metrics.
• Try accessing logs or metrics via URLs or MCP server.
• Look for alerting configuration files or CI steps that configure automated alerts (Prometheus alert rules, PagerDuty/OpsGenie integration, etc.).
• Look for error-tracking configuration files.

Instructions

Gather the evidence described above and determine the fulfillment level for C8.2.

Scoring guide:

• Level 0: No logging libraries, no monitoring tool configuration, no observability dependencies. An agent has no way to access logs or metrics — they exist only in someone's head or in a cloud dashboard with no programmatic access.
• Level 1: Logging is configured (a structured logging library, cloud-native logging) and read-only access to logs/metrics is possible — e.g., an agent could call the cloud provider's API to retrieve log entries. The key is that logs exist somewhere and are readable, even if not easily queryable.
• Level 2: Queryable monitoring and logs — an agent can run structured queries against logs (e.g., CloudWatch Insights, Grafana Loki queries, Datadog log queries, OpenTelemetry-backed traces) or query metrics via an API. An observability MCP server that exposes query operations qualifies.
• Level 3: Automated anomaly detection and alerting is configured — alert rules in Grafana/Prometheus, PagerDuty/OpsGenie integration, or error-tracking thresholds (Sentry alert rules) that fire automatically without human inspection. The system proactively signals problems rather than requiring an agent to poll.
