📋 Decision Context

Question:

Where should Vitto observability/telemetry data live, and how should the system alert executives and developers?

Task: S231.2 in-app observability system


🎯 Decision Made

Chosen:

vitto-mind execution-traces collection (already populated by MindService.recordExecution). Query-only approach: no new instrumentation needed. PerfAlertService dispatches via existing ProactiveDispatcherService to users with roleLevel>=60. Daily digest extended with perf section. Angular dashboard at /operations/system using existing observatory-dashboard pattern.

Options Considered:


💭 Reasoning

execution-traces was already being written after every task — no write amplification needed. gograb-analytics was rejected because it's on a different cluster (gograbspace vs vitto.urgh5aw) requiring a new connection, and the data is Vitto infrastructure telemetry not product analytics. Existing escalation logic in ProactiveMonitorService already filters by roleLevel>=60 — reused exactly. CSS-only waterfall bars chosen over chart libraries to avoid new npm dependencies and match existing observatory styling.
