name: observe description: Observability operations — trace agent execution, view metrics, filter logs, and correlate telemetry

Observability commands:

observe trace <task-id> -- Trace agent execution for a specific task.

1. Query observability namespace for all spans matching <task-id>
2. Build a trace tree from parent-child span relationships
3. Calculate duration for each span and identify the critical path
4. Flag bottlenecks: spans exceeding p95 duration for their operation type
5. Display: trace tree with span names, durations, status, and agent attribution

observe metrics [--period 1h] -- View aggregated system metrics.

1. Recall metrics data from observability namespace for the specified period
2. Aggregate counters (total), gauges (current), histograms (p50, p95, p99)
3. Compute: tasks completed, errors, active agents, avg task duration, token usage
4. Flag anomalies: metrics deviating >2 standard deviations from baseline
5. Display: metric name, current value, trend (up/down/stable), anomaly flag

observe logs [--level error] -- Filter and display structured logs.

1. Recall log entries from observability namespace filtered by level
2. Sort by timestamp (most recent first)
3. Group by correlation ID to show related log sequences
4. Display: timestamp, level, message, agent ID, task ID, correlation ID
5. If --level error, also show stack traces and suggested remediation

observe dashboard -- Show a combined observability dashboard.

1. Collect latest metrics, recent errors, and active traces
2. Display sections: System Health (gauges), Recent Activity (counters), Active Traces (spans), Errors (last 10)
3. Compute overall health score: green (all normal), yellow (warnings), red (errors)
4. Show cost summary from ruflo-cost-tracker if available

observe correlate <agent-id> -- Correlate all telemetry for a specific agent.

1. Query logs, traces, and metrics filtered by <agent-id>
2. Build a timeline of the agent's activity: spawn, task assignments, completions, errors
3. Cross-reference with other agents' telemetry for shared correlation IDs
4. Display: chronological timeline with logs, spans, and metric snapshots
