Monitoring Checklist

监控检查清单

Basic Monitoring:
- [ ] Uptime monitoring (is site up?)
- [ ] Error tracking (are errors happening?)
- [ ] Performance monitoring (is it slow?)
- [ ] User activity (are people using it?)
- [ ] Critical alerts configured
- [ ] Check dashboard daily
See MONITORING-SETUP.md for implementation.

请查看MONITORING-SETUP.md了解实现方法。

Why Monitor?

为什么要监控？

Without monitoring:
  • Users hit errors, you don't know
  • Site goes down, you find out from Twitter
  • Slow performance, users leave silently
  • Security issues, no alert
With monitoring:
  • Errors show in dashboard immediately
  • Get text when site goes down
  • See performance degradation
  • Catch issues before users complain
Goal: Know about problems before users tell you.
没有监控的情况：
  • 用户遇到错误，你却毫不知情
  • 网站宕机，你从Twitter才得知
  • 性能缓慢，用户默默离开
  • 出现安全问题，没有任何告警
有监控的情况：
  • 错误会立即显示在仪表板中
  • 网站宕机时你会收到短信通知
  • 可以看到性能下降的情况
  • 在用户投诉前发现问题
目标：在用户告知你之前就发现问题。

What to Monitor

监控内容

Critical Metrics

核心指标

Must monitor:
  • Site uptime (99%+)
  • Error rate (< 1% of requests)
  • API response time (< 500ms)
  • Page load time (< 3s)

  • Site is down
  • Error rate spike (10x normal)
  • Database connection lost
  • Payment processing failing
Important (email within hour):
  • API slow (>2 seconds)
  • Error rate elevated (2x normal)

  • Traffic patterns
Tell AI:
Configure monitoring alerts:
- Critical: Text to [phone]
- Important: Email to [email]
- Send summary: Daily at 9am
为以下情况配置告警：

- Important: Email to [email]
- Send summary: Daily at 9am

Daily Monitoring Routine

日常监控流程

5-minute morning check:
Daily Check:
1. Open monitoring dashboard
2. Check uptime (should be 100% yesterday)
3. Check error count (any spikes?)
4. Check performance (slower than usual?)
5. Review any alerts from overnight
If all green: You're done, 5 minutes.
If red: Investigate using debug skill.
5分钟晨间检查：
Daily Check:
1. Open monitoring dashboard
2. Check uptime (should be 100% yesterday)
3. Check error count (any spikes?)
4. Check performance (slower than usual?)
5. Review any alerts from overnight
如果一切正常：5分钟即可完成检查。
如果出现异常：使用调试工具进行排查。

Reading Monitoring Dashboards

如何查看监控仪表板

Uptime Dashboard

正常运行时间仪表板

Green: Site responding
Red: Site down or slow to respond
What to check:
  • Uptime percentage (target: 99%+)
  • Response time (target: <500ms)
  • Recent downtime incidents
绿色： 网站正常响应
红色： 网站宕机或响应缓慢
需要检查的内容：
  • 正常运行时间百分比（目标：99%以上）
  • 响应时间（目标：<500毫秒）
  • 近期宕机事件

Error Dashboard

错误仪表板

Look for:
  • Error count spikes (sudden jump)
  • New error types (didn't see before)
  • Affected users (how many hit this?)
  • Error frequency (happening a lot?)
Priority:
  • Affecting many users → High priority
  • Blocking key features → High priority
  • Edge case error → Lower priority
需要关注：
  • 错误数量激增（突然上升）
  • 新的错误类型（之前未出现过）
  • 受影响用户数（有多少用户遇到该错误？）
  • 错误频率（是否频繁发生？）
优先级：
  • 影响大量用户 → 高优先级
  • 阻塞核心功能 → 高优先级
  • 边缘场景错误 → 低优先级

Performance Dashboard

性能仪表板

Look for:
  • Load time trending up (getting slower)
  • Slow endpoints (which API calls)
  • Slow pages (which routes)
  • Geographic differences (slow in specific regions)
需要关注：
  • 加载时间呈上升趋势（越来越慢）
  • 响应缓慢的接口（哪些API调用）
  • 加载缓慢的页面（哪些路由）
  • 地域差异（特定地区响应缓慢）

Error Investigation

错误排查

When errors spike:
1. Open error tracking dashboard (Sentry)
2. Find the most frequent error
3. Read error message and stack trace
4. Note: How many users affected?
5. Note: Started when?
6. Check: Did we deploy recently?
Give to AI:
Error in production:
[Paste error message and stack trace]

Affected: [X] users in last [Y] hours
Started: [timestamp]
Recent deploys: [any?]

Please:
1. Explain what's wrong
2. Propose hotfix
3. How to test before deploying
当错误数量激增时：

3. Read error message and stack trace
4. Note: How many users affected?
5. Note: Started when?
6. Check: Did we deploy recently?

User-Reported Issues

用户反馈问题的处理

When user reports problem:
User Report Investigation:
1. Can you reproduce it?
2. Check monitoring for errors at that time
3. Check logs for that user
4. Check if others affected
5. Determine severity

Then use debug skill to fix.
Tell AI:
User reported: [issue description]
User: [email or ID]
Timestamp: [when it happened]

Check monitoring and logs for this user at this time.
What errors or issues do you see?
当用户反馈问题时：

Common Monitoring Mistakes

常见监控误区

MistakeFix
No monitoring set upSet up before launch
Alert fatigue (too many alerts)Only alert on critical issues
Checking once a monthCheck daily (5 minutes)
Ignoring trendsWatch for degradation over time
No alerts configuredSet up text alerts for downtime
Monitoring but not actingUse monitoring to find and fix issues
误区解决方法
未设置任何监控上线前完成监控设置
告警疲劳（过多告警）仅针对紧急情况发送告警
每月仅检查一次每日检查（5分钟即可）
忽略趋势变化关注长期的性能或错误率下降趋势
未配置告警为宕机情况设置短信告警
仅监控但不处理利用监控发现并修复问题

Interpreting Trends

趋势解读

Good trends:
  • Errors decreasing
  • Performance improving
  • Uptime stable at 99.9%+
Warning trends:
  • Errors slowly increasing
  • Performance slowly degrading
  • Uptime dipping below 99%
Critical trends:
  • Sudden error spike
  • Sudden performance drop
  • Multiple downtime incidents
Action: Address warning trends before they become critical.
良好趋势：
  • 错误数量减少
  • 性能提升
  • 正常运行时间稳定在99.9%以上
警告趋势：
  • 错误数量缓慢上升
  • 性能缓慢下降
  • 正常运行时间低于99%
紧急趋势：
  • 错误数量突然激增
  • 性能突然下降
  • 多次出现宕机事件
行动建议：在警告趋势演变为紧急情况前进行处理。

Logging vs Monitoring

日志 vs 监控

Logging:
  • Records what happened
  • For debugging specific issues
  • Detailed, verbose
  • Review when investigating
Monitoring:
  • Tracks overall health
  • For catching issues early
  • High-level metrics
  • Review daily
Both needed: Monitoring alerts you, logs help debug.
日志：
  • 记录已发生的事件
  • 用于调试特定问题
  • 详细且冗长
  • 仅在排查问题时查看
监控：
  • 跟踪整体健康状况
  • 用于提前发现问题
  • 高层面指标
  • 每日查看
两者缺一不可：监控负责告警，日志负责协助调试。
