[observability] Observability Coverage Report - 2026-08-08

[github-actions[bot]]

Executive Summary

I analyzed 19 completed workflow runs from the last 7 days, capped for breadth across 18 workflows. Sixteen of those runs clearly enabled both the AWF firewall and MCP gateway based on recorded agent steps such as Start MCP Gateway, Parse MCP Gateway logs for step summary, and Print firewall logs.

Observability coverage on the completed sample is critically degraded: 0 of 16 firewall-enabled runs retained access.log, and 0 of 16 MCP-enabled runs retained either gateway.jsonl or rpc-messages.jsonl. That leaves only 3 of 19 analyzed runs in a non-critical state, and those 3 were N/A because they did not exercise firewall or MCP execution paths.

Two active runs were excluded from the coverage denominator because their artifacts are still live. Both already contain sandbox/firewall/logs/access.log and mcp-logs/rpc-messages.jsonl, which points to a likely regression in artifact preservation or upload for completed runs rather than log generation itself.

Key Alerts and Anomalies

Caution

Critical observability gap: all 16 completed runs that enabled firewall and MCP are missing both access.log and MCP telemetry artifacts in the downloaded run bundle.

Note

No parse-quality warnings were observed on completed runs because the required files were absent rather than malformed.

Critical runs in this sample include §31284413614, §31284289438, and §31283491276. In PR Sous Chef §31284289438, the recorded agent steps show both Start MCP Gateway and Print firewall logs, but the final artifact list contains neither firewall log files nor MCP telemetry files.

Coverage Summary

Component	Runs Analyzed	Logs Present	Coverage	Status
AWF Firewall (access.log)	16	0	0.0%	Critical
MCP Gateway (gateway.jsonl or rpc-messages.jsonl)	16	0	0.0%	Critical

Overall observability_coverage_percentage on the analyzed sample is 15.8% (3/19). That percentage is entirely carried by the 3 N/A runs with no firewall or MCP path detected.

Healthy Runs Summary

The only non-critical runs in the capped sample were N/A runs with no firewall or MCP execution path detected: Daily Documentation Healer §31284776788, Daily AWF Spec Compiler Surfacing Review §31281355729, Daily Caveman Optimizer §31277890183.

Recommended Actions

1. Restore persistence of sandbox/firewall/logs/access.log for completed agent runs. The file is being generated on active runs, but it is absent from completed artifact bundles.
2. Make mcp-logs/rpc-messages.jsonl or mcp-logs/gateway.jsonl a required post-run artifact whenever agent steps include Start MCP Gateway or Parse MCP Gateway logs for step summary.
3. Add a conclusion-time invariant that marks the run incomplete or degraded when firewall or MCP steps ran but the matching observability files are missing from the final artifact inventory.

Historical Trends

This report did not compute a multi-day baseline beyond the current 7-day sample window. Within today's sampled completed runs, the coverage cliff is abrupt enough to treat as an active regression signal rather than normal variation.
