Observability Designer

TL;DR

OpenTelemetry + Grafana stack generator. Define your services and trace/log/metric requirements in a JSON schema and get a complete observability pipeline — collectors, dashboards, and alerting rules.

10-Second Pitch

• **JSON schema to OTel collector config**
• **Grafana dashboard templates auto-generated**
• **PROMQL alerting rules from service schema**
• **Docker Compose + Kubernetes manifests**

Setup Directions

1. Install: npm install -g observability-designer

2. Define services in ./obs-schema.json

3. Run: obs-design generate --input ./obs-schema.json --output ./observability/

4. docker-compose -f ./observability/docker-compose.yml up -d

Example Prompt

```

Design an observability stack for 5 microservices with distributed tracing, error rate SLOs, and P95 latency dashboards. Include on-call alerting for PagerDuty.

```

Verdict

Observability Designer is a focused, specialized tool — not a general-purpose framework. If your stack aligns with Claude-Code, it slots in cleanly. The audit score (90) reflects genuine production readiness.

The bottom line: if Claude-Code is in your stack, this is worth a look. If not, skip it.
