Summary

  • Extended writeEvent() in analytics.util.ts to support double3double10 fields, enabling reconciler metrics emission without breaking existing callers (new fields default to 0).
  • Added reconciler_tick event emission after each alarm tick in Town.do.ts, carrying all 9 ReconcilerMetrics fields (wallClockMs, eventsDrained, actionsEmitted, sideEffectsAttempted/Succeeded/Failed, invariantViolations, pendingEventCount) plus actionsByType as JSON in blob10.
  • Added a "Reconciler" row to the Grafana dashboard with 6 panels: Events drained (timeseries), Actions by type (stacked bar), Side effects (3-series timeseries), Invariant violations (stat with >0 threshold), Wall clock time (timeseries with >500ms threshold), Pending event queue depth (gauge with >50 threshold).

Verification

  • pnpm typecheck — passes (all workspace projects clean)
  • Code review: field mapping between emitEvent call and Grafana SQL queries verified consistent
  • No duplicate panel IDs in Grafana dashboard JSON
  • Backwards compatibility: existing writeEvent callers unaffected (new double fields default to 0)

Reviewer Notes

  • The writeEvent() doubles array grew from 2 to 10 entries. Analytics Engine supports up to 20, so this is well within limits.
  • actionsByType is stored as JSON string in blob10 (via label field) and parsed in Grafana using JSONExtractKeysAndValues(blob10, 'Float64').
  • The Grafana queries use SUM(doubleN * _sample_interval) / SUM(_sample_interval) for weighted averages and SUM(doubleN * _sample_interval) for counts — appropriate aggregation for sampled AE data.

…afana dashboard panels

- Extend writeEvent() to support double3-double10 fields for reconciler metrics
- Emit reconciler_tick event after each alarm tick with all 9 metrics
- Add Reconciler row to Grafana dashboard with 6 panels:
  1. Events drained per tick (timeseries)
  2. Actions emitted per tick by type (stacked bar)
  3. Side effects attempted/succeeded/failed (timeseries)
  4. Invariant violations (stat with >0 alert threshold)
  5. Reconciler wall clock time (timeseries with >500ms threshold)
  6. Pending event queue depth (gauge with >50 threshold)

WARNING: This gauge is showing a time-window average, not the current queue depth

SUM(double8 * _sample_interval) / SUM(_sample_interval) collapses every reconciler_tick in the selected range into a single weighted average, so the panel will not show the latest backlog value. For a queue-depth gauge we need the most recent double8 sample instead, and rawSql should be updated to match.

#1373)

* fix: skip container_status events for running containers (#1368)

Filter out 'running' status in the alarm pre-phase before calling
upsertContainerStatus(). Running is the steady-state for healthy agents
and a no-op in applyEvent(), so recording it just bloats the event table
(~720 events/hour/agent). Non-running statuses (stopped, error, unknown)
still get inserted for reconciler detection.

* feat(gastown): add POST /debug/reconcile-dry-run endpoint (#1367)

Add a debug endpoint that runs the reconciler against current live state
and returns the actions it would emit without applying them. This enables
inspecting what the reconciler thinks should happen at any given moment.

- Add debugDryRun() method to TownDO that calls reconciler.reconcile()
  and returns actions + metrics without calling applyAction()
- Add POST /debug/towns/:townId/reconcile-dry-run route following the
  same unauthenticated debug pattern as GET /debug/towns/:townId/status
- Response includes actions array, actionsEmitted count, actionsByType
  breakdown, and pendingEventCount

* feat(gastown): add debug dry-run endpoint with event draining (#1370)

* feat(claw): evaluate button-vs-card feature flag for PostHog experiment tracking

* fix(claw): move button-vs-card flag eval to CreateInstanceCard

Moves useFeatureFlagVariantKey('button-vs-card') from ClawDashboard
(which renders for all users including those with existing instances)
to CreateInstanceCard (which only renders for users who haven't
provisioned yet). This scopes the experiment exposure to users who
can actually see the create CTA, avoiding population dilution.

* feat(gastown): add POST /debug/reconcile-dry-run endpoint

Add a debug endpoint that runs the reconciler against current live state
and returns the actions it would emit without applying them. This enables
inspecting what the reconciler thinks should happen at any given moment.

- Add debugDryRun() method to TownDO that calls reconciler.reconcile()
  and returns actions + metrics without calling applyAction()
- Add POST /debug/towns/:townId/reconcile-dry-run route following the
  same unauthenticated debug pattern as GET /debug/towns/:townId/status
- Response includes actions array, actionsEmitted count, actionsByType
  breakdown, and pendingEventCount

* fix(gastown): drain pending events in debugDryRun() before reconciling

Wrap debugDryRun() in a SQLite savepoint so it can drain and apply
pending town_events (Phase 0) before running reconcile (Phase 1),
matching the real alarm loop behavior. The savepoint is rolled back
in a finally block so the endpoint remains fully side-effect-free.

Adds eventsDrained to the returned metrics.

* feat(gastown): add POST /debug/replay-events endpoint for event replay debugging

Adds debugReplayEvents(from, to) method to Town.do.ts that queries all
town_events in a time range (regardless of processed_at), applies them
to reconstruct state transitions, runs the reconciler, and returns the
computed actions and a state snapshot. Uses a SQLite SAVEPOINT that is
rolled back so the endpoint remains fully side-effect-free.

Route: POST /debug/towns/:townId/replay-events
Body: { from: ISO, to: ISO }
Response: { eventsReplayed, actions, stateSnapshot }

* feat(gastown): emit reconciler metrics to Analytics Engine and add Grafana dashboard panels (#1372)

- Extend writeEvent() to support double3-double10 fields for reconciler metrics
- Emit reconciler_tick event after each alarm tick with all 9 metrics
- Add Reconciler row to Grafana dashboard with 6 panels:
  1. Events drained per tick (timeseries)
  2. Actions emitted per tick by type (stacked bar)
  3. Side effects attempted/succeeded/failed (timeseries)
  4. Invariant violations (stat with >0 alert threshold)
  5. Reconciler wall clock time (timeseries with >500ms threshold)
  6. Pending event queue depth (gauge with >50 threshold)

* fix(gastown): add replay caveat and fix Grafana pending-events gauge query

Add a caveat comment and response field to debugReplayEvents explaining
that events are re-applied on top of live state, not from a pre-window
snapshot — results are approximate, useful for debugging event flow but
not faithful historical reconstruction.

Fix the Grafana 'Pending Event Queue Depth' gauge to show the latest
row's double8 value instead of averaging across the time window.

* feat(gastown): add Sentry capture for reconciler invariant violations

Each invariant violation now triggers Sentry.captureMessage with structured
context (invariant number, message, townId) as both extra data and tags.
Existing analytics event emission is preserved. Added TODO for future
auto-recovery of invariant #7 (working agent with no hook).
