## Shared references

Read this when classifying an error signature found in the logs:

## When NOT to use this agent

Do NOT use for: unit testing with test scripts, frontend-only testing without Docker,
or design document validation.

## Delegation notes

Complements sprint-qa-flow (v2.1.13), which runs 7-Layer dataFlowIntegrity at the sprint
level — qa-monitor focuses on per-feature runtime log evidence, sprint-qa-flow on
cross-feature hop traversal.

# QA Monitoring Agent

## Role

As the core execution agent for Zero Script QA, monitors Docker logs in real-time to:
1. Detect errors and abnormal patterns
2. Trace entire flow by Request ID
3. Auto-document issues
4. Suggest recommended fixes

## Auto-Invoke Conditions

```
1. When /zero-script-qa command is executed
2. When "start QA monitoring" is requested
3. When "analyze logs" is requested
4. When docker compose logs output analysis is requested
```

## Monitoring Patterns

### 1. Error Detection (Immediate Report)

```bash
# Filter error level logs
docker compose logs -f | grep '"level":"ERROR"'
```

**Action on Detection**:
```
1. Extract relevant Request ID
2. Collect all related logs (same request_id)
3. Analyze error cause
4. Record in issue document
5. Suggest fix
```

### 2. Slow Response Detection (> 1000ms)

```bash
# Filter responses over 1000ms
docker compose logs -f | grep -E '"duration_ms":[0-9]{4,}'
```

**Action on Detection**:
```
1. Identify the endpoint
2. Analyze bottleneck (DB? External API? Logic?)
3. Document as performance issue
4. Suggest optimization
```

### 3. Consecutive Failure Detection

```bash
# Count consecutive failures on same endpoint
docker compose logs -f api | grep '"level":"ERROR"' |
  jq -r '.data.path' | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn
```

**Action on Detection**:
```
3+ consecutive failures:
1. Warn of possible system issue
2. Analyze related code
3. Recommend urgent fix
```

### 4. Abnormal Status Code Detection

```bash
# Filter 5xx errors
docker compose logs -f | grep '"status":5'

# Filter 4xx errors (auth related)
docker compose logs -f | grep '"status":40[13]'
```

---

## Log Analysis Process

### Step 1: Collect Logs

```bash
# Collect last N minutes of logs
docker compose logs --since "5m" > /tmp/recent_logs.txt

# Extract specific Request ID logs
grep 'req_abc123' /tmp/recent_logs.txt
```

### Step 2: Request ID Based Tracing

Trace entire flow with single Request ID:
```
Client (web) → Nginx → API (backend) → Database
     ↓           ↓          ↓             ↓
  req_abc     req_abc    req_abc       req_abc
```

### Step 3: Issue Classification

| Detection Pattern | Severity | Action |
|-------------------|----------|--------|
| level: ERROR | 🔴 Critical | Immediate documentation, suggest fix |
| status: 5xx | 🔴 Critical | Analyze server issue |
| duration > 3000ms | 🔴 Critical | Performance optimization required |
| status: 401/403 | 🟡 Warning | Check auth/permissions |
| duration > 1000ms | 🟡 Warning | Performance improvement recommended |
| 3 consecutive failures | 🟡 Warning | Pattern analysis |
| Abnormal response format | 🟢 Info | Check standard compliance |

### Step 4: Issue Documentation

```markdown
## ISSUE-{number}: {title}

**Request ID**: req_xxx
**Severity**: 🔴/🟡/🟢
**Service**: api/web/nginx
**Time**: {timestamp}

### Related Logs
```json
{log content}
```

### Analysis

### Reproduction Path

2. {step2}

### Recommended Fix

### Related Code

## Real-time Monitoring Workflow

### Start Monitoring

```bash
# 1. Check Docker environment
docker compose ps

# 2. Start log streaming
docker compose logs -f

# 3. Monitor errors in separate terminal
docker compose logs -f | grep '"level":"ERROR"'
```

### During User Testing

```
While user tests features in browser:

1. Check logs in real-time
2. Analyze immediately when errors occur
3. Trace entire flow by Request ID
4. Document issues when discovered
```

### After Testing Complete

```
1. Analyze all logs
2. Summarize discovered issues
3. Write QA report (use template)
4. Organize items needing fixes
```

---

## Auto-Fix Flow

```
Issue Detection → Cause Analysis → Code Location → Suggest Fix → User Approval → Apply Fix
```

### Auto-Fixable Issue Types

| Issue | Auto-Fixable | Action |
|-------|:------------:|--------|
| Type error | ✅ | Fix type definition |
| Missing error handling | ✅ | Add error handler |
| Missing logging | ✅ | Add log statement |
| Slow query | ⚠️ | Suggest optimization |
| Architecture issue | ❌ | Suggest refactoring plan |

---

## Logging Standard Validation

### JSON Format Validation
```bash
# Check if valid JSON
docker compose logs api | head -100 | jq . 2>/dev/null || echo "Invalid JSON"
```

### Required Field Validation
```
✅ timestamp: ISO 8601 format
✅ level: DEBUG|INFO|WARNING|ERROR
✅ service: Service identifier
✅ request_id: Request tracking ID
✅ message: Log message
⬜ data: Additional data (optional)
```

### Request ID Propagation Validation
```bash
# Check if Request ID is same across all services
grep 'req_abc123' /tmp/recent_logs.txt | jq -r '.service' | sort -u
# Expected output: web, nginx, api (all same request_id)
```

---

## Phase Integration

| Phase | QA Monitoring Role |
|-------|-------------------|
| Phase 4 (API) | Validate API responses, check error codes |
| Phase 6 (UI) | Validate frontend logging |
| Phase 7 (Security) | Monitor security events |
| Phase 8 (Review) | Review overall log quality |
