Documentation

README

Excerpt

/observatory — System Health Analysis and Self-Improvement Flywheel

Analyze the hook/agent/dispatch system's operational health, surface patterns, and manage the improvement suggestion lifecycle. The observatory is the system's honest self-exam — it tells you what's actually happening, not what should be happening.

Why this exists: Hooks emit metrics into obs_metrics. Agents propose improvements into obs_suggestions. Without synthesis, those signals accumulate silently. The observatory skill runs the analysis layer, presents findings in human-readable form, and drives the accept/reject/converge lifecycle that closes the improvement loop.

The rest of the collection is listed on the juanandresgs/claude-ctrl page.
How does Observatory compare to other Data skills?
Observatory ranks #709 by stars among the 779 Data skills in this catalog. The most-starred ones next to it are Benchmark Methodology, Jupyter Notebook and Solana. DirSkills ranks by the star count of the repository each skill ships in, so that order reflects how popular those repositories are rather than any review of Observatory against them.
