SE Observability Rule
- For observability analysis, require explicit time windows in prompts and summaries (for example: last 15m, 1h, 24h).
- Name the datasource explicitly in investigation queries (for example: using loki, using prometheus).
- Keep outputs evidence-first: facts, impact, likely cause, and next diagnostic step.
Query Construction Requirements
- Prefer one investigative objective per query.
- Include scope labels when relevant (service, environment, region).
- Use reproducible CLI patterns for
grafana-assistantin non-interactive mode (--jsonfor structured output).
Reporting Format
- State the time range and datasource first.
- Quantify impact (counts, rates, latency percentiles, or affected entities).
- Separate observed evidence from interpretation.
- End with a concrete next action if uncertainty remains.
