Monitor and diagnose the Wicked Garden plugin ecosystem.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Health probes for ecosystem integrity
  • Hook traces to analyze plugin execution
  • Contract assertions to validate script outputs
  • Toolchain discovery for monitoring integrations Real-world scenario: diagnose a flaky plugin binding causing intermittent failures.

Quick Start

Run a health check across all plugins and review recent traces for anomalies.

Frequently Asked Questions about observability

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I monitor plugin health and diagnose failures in a plugin ecosystem?▼

You can monitor plugin health by running health probes across the ecosystem to verify integrity and collecting hook traces to diagnose execution failures, providing end-to-end observability during development and production.

How do I collect and analyze hook traces for plugin execution?▼

You collect hook traces via platform commands that capture plugin execution data, enabling analysis of execution flow and anomalies to diagnose flaky plugin bindings causing intermittent failures.

What are contract assertions and how do they validate script outputs?▼

Contract assertions validate script outputs by verifying plugin behaviors against defined expectations during testing and production, ensuring script outputs conform to established contracts across the plugin ecosystem.

Can I perform toolchain discovery for monitoring integrations?▼

Yes, toolchain discovery is supported via platform commands to identify available monitoring integrations, enabling you to connect observability data with existing development and operations toolchains.

When do I need observability for plugin health monitoring during production?▼

You need observability during production to continuously verify ecosystem integrity via health probes, collect hook traces for execution analysis, and validate contract assertions to prevent intermittent plugin failures.

What's the best way to diagnose a flaky plugin binding causing intermittent failures?▼

The best way to diagnose flaky plugin bindings is to run a health check across all plugins and review recent hook traces for anomalies, utilizing contract assertions to pinpoint execution inconsistencies.
