@tpmjs/tools-monitoring-gap-analysis

Analyze monitoring coverage gaps across services and endpoints to identify missing metrics, alerts, or logs with prioritized recommendations.

Installation

npm install @tpmjs/tools-monitoring-gap-analysis

Usage

import { monitoringGapAnalysisTool } from '@tpmjs/tools-monitoring-gap-analysis';

// Analyze monitoring coverage
const result = await monitoringGapAnalysisTool.execute({
  services: [
    {
      name: 'API Gateway',
      hasMetrics: true,
      hasAlerts: true,
      hasLogs: true
    },
    {
      name: 'Payment Service',
      hasMetrics: true,
      hasAlerts: false,
      hasLogs: true
    },
    {
      name: 'Email Worker',
      hasMetrics: false,
      hasAlerts: false,
      hasLogs: false
    },
    {
      name: 'User Service',
      hasMetrics: true,
      hasAlerts: true,
      hasLogs: false
    }
  ]
});

console.log(result.coverageScore); // 58
console.log(result.summary);
// "Analyzed 4 services with 58% overall monitoring coverage. Found 5 gaps across 3 services, including 1 critical gap requiring immediate attention."

console.log(result.gaps);
// [
//   {
//     service: "Email Worker",
//     gapType: "critical",
//     severity: "critical",
//     description: "Service has no monitoring coverage",
//     impact: "Cannot detect outages..."
//   },
//   ...
// ]

console.log(result.recommendations);
// [
//   {
//     priority: "high",
//     category: "metrics",
//     title: "Implement metrics collection for unmonitored services",
//     description: "Deploy metric exporters...",

Input

• services (array, required): Array of service objects with:
  • name (string): Service name
  • hasMetrics (boolean): Whether metrics collection is configured
  • hasAlerts (boolean): Whether alerting is configured
  • hasLogs (boolean): Whether log collection is configured

Output

Returns an object with:

• gaps (array): Identified monitoring gaps, each containing:
  • service (string): Service name
  • gapType ('metrics' | 'alerts' | 'logs' | 'critical'): Type of gap
  • severity ('critical' | 'high' | 'medium'): Gap severity
  • description (string): What is missing
  • impact (string): Business/operational impact
• recommendations (array): Prioritized recommendations, each containing:
  • priority ('high' | 'medium' | 'low'): Action priority
  • category ('metrics' | 'alerts' | 'logs' | 'infrastructure'): Recommendation type
  • title (string): Short recommendation title
  • description (string): Detailed implementation guidance
  • affectedServices (array): List of services this applies to
• coverageScore (number): Overall coverage score 0-100 (based on % of services with complete monitoring)
• summary (string): Human-readable analysis summary
• metadata (object):
  • totalServices: Number of services analyzed
  • servicesWithGaps: Number of services with at least one gap
  • criticalGaps: Number of critical severity gaps
  • analyzedAt: ISO timestamp
  • coverageBreakdown: Coverage percentages by type (metrics, alerts, logs)

Features

• Severity Classification: Gaps are classified as critical, high, or medium based on impact
• Smart Recommendations: Prioritized, actionable recommendations grouped by category
• Coverage Scoring: 0-100 score based on complete monitoring coverage (metrics + alerts + logs)
• Coverage Breakdown: See coverage percentages by monitoring type
• Critical Gap Detection: Services with zero monitoring are flagged as critical
• Infrastructure Recommendations: Suggests platform-level improvements when many services lack monitoring

Gap Severity Logic

• Critical: Service has NO monitoring coverage at all (no metrics, alerts, or logs)
• High: Missing critical monitoring component (metrics or alerts)
• Medium: Missing logs (when metrics/alerts exist)

Coverage Score Calculation

Score = (Total monitoring components present) / (Total services × 3) × 100

Each service can have up to 3 components (metrics, alerts, logs). A service with all three counts as 100% covered.

Example Scenarios

Well-monitored Infrastructure

// All services fully monitored
const result = await monitoringGapAnalysisTool.execute({
  services: [
    { name: 'API', hasMetrics: true, hasAlerts: true, hasLogs: true },
    { name: 'DB', hasMetrics: true, hasAlerts: true, hasLogs: true }
  ]
});
// coverageScore: 100
// gaps: []

Partial Monitoring (Common)

// Some gaps across services
const result = await monitoringGapAnalysisTool.execute({
  services: [
    { name: 'API', hasMetrics: true, hasAlerts: true, hasLogs: false },
    { name: 'Worker', hasMetrics: true, hasAlerts: false, hasLogs: false }
  ]
});
// coverageScore: 50
// gaps: 3 (1 medium for API logs, 2 high for Worker alerts/logs)

Critical Gaps

// Unmonitored service
const result = await monitoringGapAnalysisTool.execute({
  services: [
    { name: 'Legacy Service', hasMetrics: false, hasAlerts: false, hasLogs: false }
  ]
});
// coverageScore: 0
// gaps: 1 critical
// recommendations: High priority infrastructure setup
