README

The receive side of Hone. It is consumed by the Hone app and provides everything between the ingest endpoint and the coding agent: receive, store, roll up, prune, and serve over MCP.

Read-only mirror. This repository is a read-only split of the artisan-build/hone monorepo. Issues and pull requests are disabled here — please open them on the monorepo.

What it provides

• Ingest endpoint — validates the per-app HONE_TOKEN against the registry, resolves the source app, version-checks the envelope (parse if known, 4xx if newer), and enqueues raw payloads to Redis. Returns fast; no synchronous DB writes.
• Capabilities endpoint — advertises the envelope majors this server supports, so a client's hone:update can check compatibility.
• Worker — drains Redis and writes raw events to Postgres, tagged by (app, record_type, deploy, occurred_at).
• App registry — source apps plus hashed tokens, config-file driven from .env. Adding an app is a config entry plus a deploy.
• Rollups & prune — scheduled jobs that compute percentiles from raw data (before it is pruned) and persist daily aggregates that survive pruning.
• MCP server — a read-only, multi-app-aware surface a coding agent queries.

Storage model

Telemetry is stored generically rather than as twelve bespoke schemas. Every record type — requests, queries, jobs, exceptions, commands, cache, mail, notifications, outgoing HTTP, scheduled tasks, logs, users — flows through the same three tables. app and deploy are first-class dimensions on all of them.

The Nightwatch record bodies are stored opaquely as jsonb and interpreted only at rollup and query time — so a change in Nightwatch's payload shape degrades to "a rollup misses a field," never an ingest failure.

Rollups & retention

• The rollup job runs before the prune job. Percentiles (p95/p99) are computed from raw data with Postgres percentile_cont within the raw-retention window and persisted to aggregates, surviving the prune.
• Daily bucketing is the regression unit.
• Retention is configurable per install from .env: raw_events ~72h · aggregates ~90d · samples ~7d.

MCP server

• Transport: Streamable HTTP with a per-environment bearer token (for remote agents and CI), plus stdio for local Claude Code.
• Read-only and multi-app aware: every tool takes an optional app filter and otherwise aggregates across the environment's apps.
• Tools (v1): slow_requests, slow_queries, slow_jobs, slow_outgoing_requests, exceptions, cache_stats, queue_throughput, mail_volume, notification_volume, scheduled_task_health, command_stats, log_volume_by_level, top_users, regression_check, deploys, ingest_freshness, query_metric, record_types, list_apps.

Output is PII-safe by construction — bindings are never captured and redaction happens upstream — so feeding tool results into an agent context doesn't leak customer data.
