Struct Observation 

pub struct Observation {
    pub id: ObservationId,
    pub kind: ObservationKind,
    pub raw_payload_ref: ContentHash,
    pub capture_context: CaptureContext,
    pub provider: ProviderIdentity,
    pub captured_at: Timestamp,
}

Raw provider output - the evidence ledger.

Observations are immutable records of what a provider returned. They do NOT become facts directly - they must go through the proposal/promotion pipeline.

Example

use converge_core::types::{
    Observation, ObservationKind, ObservationId, ContentHash,
    CaptureContext, ProviderIdentity,
};

let obs = Observation::from_api_response(
    ObservationId::new("obs-001"),
    ContentHash::zero(),
    ProviderIdentity::new("openai", "v1"),
    CaptureContext::default(),
);

assert_eq!(obs.kind, ObservationKind::ApiResponse);

Fields

id: ObservationId

Unique identifier for this observation

kind: ObservationKind

What kind of source this came from

raw_payload_ref: ContentHash

Hash/pointer to the raw payload (content-addressed)

capture_context: CaptureContext

How the observation was captured

provider: ProviderIdentity

Who provided this observation

captured_at: Timestamp

When this was captured

Implementations

impl Observation

pub fn from_api_response( id: ObservationId, raw_payload_ref: ContentHash, provider: ProviderIdentity, capture_context: CaptureContext, ) -> Observation

Create an observation from an API response.

pub fn from_user_input( id: ObservationId, raw_payload_ref: ContentHash, capture_context: CaptureContext, ) -> Observation

Create an observation from user input.

pub fn from_system_event( id: ObservationId, raw_payload_ref: ContentHash, capture_context: CaptureContext, ) -> Observation

Create an observation from a system event.

pub fn from_external_feed( id: ObservationId, raw_payload_ref: ContentHash, provider: ProviderIdentity, capture_context: CaptureContext, ) -> Observation

Create an observation from an external feed.

pub fn new( id: ObservationId, kind: ObservationKind, raw_payload_ref: ContentHash, provider: ProviderIdentity, capture_context: CaptureContext, captured_at: Timestamp, ) -> Observation

Create a generic observation with explicit kind.
