9.1.1 — AI Observer Foundation Review & Polish (M9.1)

[SorraTheOrc]

Task Overview

Review and polish the AI Observer implementation to ensure it fully meets M9.1 acceptance criteria across both local and service-mode simulations.

Acceptance Criteria

• Observer connects via both SimEngine and SimServiceClient
• Generates structured JSON and optional natural language commentary
• Integration tests validate trend detection
• README documents usage with examples

Context

The AI Observer foundation was implemented in Phase 9 M9.1. This task focuses on:

1. Reviewing current observer implementation/tests
2. Closing any gaps vs acceptance criteria
3. Updating README with comprehensive examples

Dependencies

• Stable simulation APIs and telemetry (✅ complete)

Risks & Mitigations

• Risk: Observer outputs too verbose/noisy. Mitigation: Provide configurable output levels.
