This commit applies the standard telemetry pattern to the update-subtask command and its corresponding MCP tool.
Key Changes:
1. Core Logic (scripts/modules/task-manager/update-subtask-by-id.js):
- The call to generateTextService now includes commandName: 'update-subtask' and outputType.
- The full response { mainResult, telemetryData } is captured.
- mainResult (the AI-generated text) is used for the appended content.
- If running in CLI mode (outputFormat === 'text'), displayAiUsageSummary is called with the telemetryData.
- The function now returns { updatedSubtask: ..., telemetryData: ... }.
2. Direct Function (mcp-server/src/core/direct-functions/update-subtask-by-id.js):
- The call to the core updateSubtaskById function now passes the necessary context for telemetry (commandName, outputType).
- The successful response object now correctly extracts coreResult.telemetryData and includes it in the data.telemetryData field returned to the MCP client.

# Title: Task #81: Implement Comprehensive Local Telemetry System with Future Server Integration Capability
|
|
# Status: pending
|
|
# Dependencies: None
|
|
# Priority: medium
|
|
# Description: Expand the existing telemetry system to capture additional metrics about feature usage, performance, and user behavior patterns, implementing local storage and aggregation of telemetry data with the capability for future server integration.
|
|
# Details:
|
|
This task builds upon the existing telemetry infrastructure (Tasks #77 and #80) to provide more comprehensive insights into how users interact with the application, while storing data locally until a server endpoint becomes available.
|
|
|
|
Key implementation details:
|
|
1. Identify and implement additional telemetry data points:
|
|
- Command execution frequency and timing metrics
|
|
- Feature usage patterns (which commands/features are most/least used)
|
|
- Performance metrics (execution time, memory usage, etc.)
|
|
- Error rates and types
|
|
- Session duration and activity patterns
|
|
- System environment information (OS, Node version, etc.)
|
|
|
|
2. Implement a local telemetry storage system:
|
|
- Create a robust local storage mechanism to hold telemetry data indefinitely

|
- Manually verify the accuracy of collected metrics
|
|
- Test the export functionality and analyze the exported data
|
|
- Validate that user-facing insights and dashboards provide accurate and useful information
|
|
|
|
6. Privacy Compliance Testing:
|
|
- Verify no PII is stored without proper anonymization
|
|
- Test opt-out functionality works correctly
|
|
- Ensure telemetry levels properly restrict data collection as configured
|
|
|
|
7. Regression Testing:
|
|

|
|
|
|
8. User Experience Testing:
|
|
- Test the usability of personal dashboards and insights features
|
|
- Gather feedback on the usefulness of telemetry-based recommendations
|
|

For future server integration, Prometheus time-series database with its companion storage solutions (like Cortex or Thanos) would be an excellent choice for handling our telemetry data. The local telemetry collection system should be designed with compatible data structures and metrics formatting that will allow seamless export to Prometheus once server-side infrastructure is in place. This approach would provide powerful querying capabilities, visualization options through Grafana, and scalable long-term storage. Consider implementing the OpenMetrics format locally to ensure compatibility with the Prometheus ecosystem.

Prometheus would be an excellent choice for server-side telemetry storage and analysis. When designing the local telemetry collection system, we should structure our metrics and events to be compatible with Prometheus' data model (time series with key-value pairs). This would allow for straightforward export to Prometheus once server infrastructure is established. For long-term storage, companion solutions like Cortex or Thanos could extend Prometheus' capabilities, enabling historical analysis and scalable retention. Additionally, adopting the OpenMetrics format locally would ensure seamless integration with the broader Prometheus ecosystem, including visualization through Grafana dashboards.
