P0: Enable Workflow Execution Metrics Collection

[github-actions]

Problem

The workflow health monitoring system lacks execution metrics data, preventing comprehensive health analysis of the 128 workflows in this repository.

Current State

• Metrics Location: /tmp/gh-aw/repo-memory-default/memory/default/metrics/latest.json
• Status: File does not exist
• Impact: Cannot analyze workflow success rates, failure patterns, or mean time between failures (MTBF)

Missing Capabilities

Without metrics data, the health manager cannot:

1. ✗ Calculate workflow success/failure rates
2. ✗ Identify consistently failing workflows
3. ✗ Track performance trends over time
4. ✗ Detect workflow regressions
5. ✗ Analyze error patterns across workflows
6. ✗ Calculate mean time between failures (MTBF)
7. ✗ Generate reliability scores based on execution history

Root Cause

The metrics-collector.md workflow is outdated (source modified after lock file compilation), which may be preventing metrics from being collected and stored properly.

Required Actions

1. Recompile metrics-collector workflow

make recompile  # Or specifically: gh-aw compile .github/workflows/metrics-collector.md

2. Verify metrics collection schedule

Check that metrics-collector.md is scheduled to run daily and has proper permissions to write to shared memory.

3. Wait for metrics accumulation

After fixing compilation, allow at least 7 days for metrics to accumulate for meaningful trend analysis.

4. Verify metrics storage

After first run, verify file exists:

ls -lh /tmp/gh-aw/repo-memory-default/memory/default/metrics/latest.json
cat /tmp/gh-aw/repo-memory-default/memory/default/metrics/latest.json | jq '.timestamp'

Expected Metrics Structure

The metrics file should contain:

• Per-workflow run statistics (total runs, successes, failures)
• Success rates calculated
• Timestamps for tracking trends
• Historical data for 30-day analysis

Dependencies

• Related to: #[P0 recompile issue]
• Blocks: Comprehensive workflow health analysis
• Blocks: Automated failure detection
• Blocks: Performance trend tracking

Priority

P0 - Critical: This is a meta-monitoring capability that enables all other health checks. Without metrics, health monitoring is limited to structural analysis (compilation status, configuration) and cannot detect runtime failures.

Success Criteria

• metrics-collector.md lock file is up-to-date
• Metrics collector runs successfully on schedule
• /tmp/gh-aw/repo-memory-default/memory/default/metrics/latest.json exists and contains valid data
• Historical metrics accumulate in metrics/daily/ directory
• Workflow Health Manager can analyze execution metrics
