Observability is often neglected, leaving production issues undiagnosed until it's too late. This skill provides a blueprint to instrument code with signals, health endpoints, and durable failure state so incidents are diagnosable at 3am.
Use this skill to instrument a code path by adding structured logs, health endpoints, persisted failure state, and explicit failure modes.

Structured logging for long-running services requires logging the what, why, and flowId at critical decision points, providing actionable signals during production failures instead of generic function entry messages.
Persistent failure state is writing failure context to disk so a fresh agent can continue debugging without rerun, ensuring background task incidents remain diagnosable after a process restarts.
Yes, you can expose lightweight health checks or status files for long-running processes, enabling production monitoring of explicit failure modes and durable state persistence in auto-mode style code.
Making failures visible in real time is best achieved by instrumenting code with structured decision-point logs, durable state persistence, lightweight health surfaces, and explicit failure modes.
Production monitoring fails to diagnose issues without reruns when code lacks durable failure state persistence, meaning critical failure context is lost when the process stops and cannot be resumed.
