What problem does it solve?

Observability Driven Development (ODD) treats tracing as a design artifact. You define the span tree before coding and run locally against a local OTel stack so every change yields a readable trace that guides decisions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Narrative-first design: write a telemetry narrative before implementation to guide instrumentation.
  • Local observability loop: stand up the Aspire dashboard and a local OTel stack to observe traces in real time.
  • Validation-driven delivery: verify behaviour against the narrative using the /validate_telemetry workflow and iterate until the trace matches the spec.

Quick Start

Write the narrative spec before the implementation, stand up the local OTel stack, instrument the feature, and validate telemetry with /validate_telemetry workflow.
