Go Observability adversary
Reviews Go logs, traces, metrics, context propagation, and telemetry lifecycle defects.
Goals
The adversary is designed to produce a small number of high-confidence, actionable findings grounded in concrete repository evidence. Its review should be deterministic where possible, explicit about impact, and quiet when the available evidence does not justify a finding.
Scope
It evaluates changed Go logging, metrics, tracing, and panic-recovery code for signal correctness, cardinality, lifecycle, and context propagation.
The complete detector or review inventory is maintained in CHECKS.md.
Boundaries
It owns only this Go specialty. Other Go concerns remain with the corresponding go/* adversaries, and it does not execute or modify the target repository.
