# Monitoring and Analytics Framework - Completion Report **Date**: 2025-10-08 **Status**: ✅ COMPLETE **Type**: Phase 4 Optimization - Observability and Analytics **Effort**: ~90 minutes --- ## Executive Summary Successfully implemented comprehensive monitoring and analytics framework for the MCP server, providing real-time observability, performance tracking, error monitoring, and health checks for all operations. **Key Achievement**: **Full observability platform** with metrics, request tracking, and health monitoring ✅ --- ## Features Implemented ### 1. Metrics Collection **Metric Types**: - **Counter**: Incrementing values (e.g., request counts, errors) - **Gauge**: Point-in-time values (e.g., memory usage, active connections) - **Histogram**: Distribution values (e.g., response times, payload sizes) - **Timer**: Duration tracking (integrated into histograms) **Metric Categories**: - **REQUEST**: Request/response tracking - **RESOURCE**: Resource generation and access - **TOOL**: Tool execution metrics - **CACHE**: Cache hit/miss rates - **ERROR**: Error tracking and categorization - **PERFORMANCE**: Latency and throughput - **SYSTEM**: System resource usage ### 2. Request Tracking **Lifecycle Monitoring**: - Start request tracking with metadata - Complete request (success) - Fail request (error with reason) - Automatic duration calculation - Status tracking (pending, success, error) **Request Metadata**: - Request ID - Type (tool, resource, prompt) - Name/identifier - Start/end timestamps - Duration in milliseconds - Custom metadata fields ### 3. Performance Monitoring **Latency Metrics**: - P50 (median) latency - P95 (95th percentile) latency - P99 (99th percentile) latency - Average latency - Min/max values **Throughput Metrics**: - Requests per second - Requests per minute - Success rate - Error rate **Performance Snapshots**: - Current request counts (total, success, error, pending) - Latency distribution - Throughput rates - Cache performance - Error breakdown by type ### 4. Cache Analytics **Cache Metrics**: - Hit rate percentage - Total cache hits - Total cache misses - Cache key tracking **Integration**: - Automatic tracking via `recordCacheHit()` and `recordCacheMiss()` - Included in performance snapshots - Historical trend analysis ### 5. Health Checks **Health Check System**: - Register health check functions - Run health checks on demand - Automatic periodic execution - Status levels: healthy, degraded, unhealthy - Health check duration tracking **Overall Health Status**: - Aggregate health status from all checks - Priority: unhealthy > degraded > healthy - Empty checks = healthy ### 6. Error Tracking **Error Monitoring**: - Total error counts - Errors by type/category - Error rates over time - Failed request tracking **Error Categorization**: - Automatic tagging by error type - Error message capture - Context preservation ### 7. Metrics Management **Data Retention**: - Configurable retention period (default: 1 hour) - Automatic cleanup of old metrics - Maximum metrics limit enforcement - Memory-efficient storage **Aggregation**: - Periodic aggregation (default: 1 minute) - Statistical calculations (min, max, avg, percentiles) - Time-series support ### 8. Export and Reporting **Metrics Export**: - JSON export format - Includes all metrics, requests, health checks - Performance snapshot included - Uptime tracking - Timestamp metadata **Query Capabilities**: - Get metrics by category - Get recent requests (sorted by time) - Get metric statistics (min, max, avg, percentiles) - Filter by name and category --- ## Technical Implementation ### File Structure ``` src/utils/monitoring.ts (745 lines) - NEW tests/utils/monitoring.test.ts (540 lines) - NEW tests/utils/monitoring-smoke.test.ts (58 lines) - NEW ``` ### Core Classes and Types #### MonitoringManager ```typescript export class MonitoringManager { // Configuration constructor(config: Partial<MonitoringConfig>) // Metrics recording recordCounter(name, category, value, tags?, metadata?) recordGauge(name, category, value, tags?, metadata?) recordHistogram(name, category, value, tags?, metadata?) // Request tracking startRequest(requestId, type, name, metadata?) completeRequest(requestId, metadata?) failRequest(requestId, error, metadata?) // Cache monitoring recordCacheHit(cacheKey) recordCacheMiss(cacheKey) // Health checks registerHealthCheck(name, checkFunction) runHealthCheck(name, checkFunction) getHealthChecks() getHealthStatus() // Performance analysis getPerformanceSnapshot() getMetricStats(name, category) // Data management getMetrics() getMetricsByCategory(category) getRecentRequests(limit) cleanup() reset() stop() // Export exportMetrics() getUptime() } ``` #### Metric Types ```typescript interface Metric { name: string; type: MetricType; category: MetricCategory; value: number; timestamp: string; tags?: Record<string, string>; metadata?: Record<string, any>; } interface RequestMetrics { requestId: string; type: 'tool' | 'resource' | 'prompt'; name: string; startTime: string; endTime?: string; duration?: number; status: 'pending' | 'success' | 'error'; error?: string; metadata?: Record<string, any>; } interface HealthCheck { name: string; status: 'healthy' | 'degraded' | 'unhealthy'; message?: string; timestamp: string; duration: number; metadata?: Record<string, any>; } interface PerformanceSnapshot { timestamp: string; requests: { total: number; success: number; error: number; pending: number; }; latency: { p50: number; p95: number; p99: number; avg: number; }; throughput: { requestsPerSecond: number; requestsPerMinute: number; }; cache: { hitRate: number; totalHits: number; totalMisses: number; }; errors: { total: number; byType: Record<string, number>; }; } ``` --- ## Example Usage ### Basic Metrics Recording ```typescript import { monitoring, MetricCategory } from '../utils/monitoring.js'; // Record counter (e.g., API calls) monitoring.recordCounter('api.calls', MetricCategory.REQUEST, 1, { endpoint: '/api/tools', method: 'POST', }); // Record gauge (e.g., active connections) monitoring.recordGauge('connections.active', MetricCategory.SYSTEM, 42); // Record histogram (e.g., response size) monitoring.recordHistogram('response.size', MetricCategory.PERFORMANCE, 1024, { resource: 'adr-list', }); ``` ### Request Tracking ```typescript import { monitoring } from '../utils/monitoring.js'; // Start tracking request const requestId = crypto.randomUUID(); monitoring.startRequest(requestId, 'tool', 'smart-score-tool', { cacheKey: 'score:project-123', }); try { // Execute tool logic const result = await executeTool(); // Mark as successful monitoring.completeRequest(requestId, { resultSize: JSON.stringify(result).length, }); return result; } catch (error) { // Mark as failed monitoring.failRequest( requestId, error instanceof Error ?
