//! Prometheus metrics collection for Octoroute
//!
//! This module provides metrics instrumentation for tracking:
//! - Request counts by tier and routing strategy
//! - Routing decision latency
//! - Model invocations by tier
//!
//! Metrics are exposed via the `/metrics` endpoint in Prometheus text format.
//!
//! # Feature Flag

//! This module is only available when the `metrics` feature is enabled:
//! ```toml
//! [dependencies]
//! octoroute = { version = "1.0", features = ["metrics"] }

    ///
    /// ## What This Metric Tracks
    ///
    /// This metric increments when metrics recording operations fail, specifically:
    /// - `record_request()` fails (Prometheus registry error, label mismatch)
    /// - `record_routing_duration()` fails (invalid duration, registry error)
    /// - `record_model_invocation()` fails (registry error)
    ///
    /// ## Alerting Threshold
    ///
    /// **Recommended alert**: > 5 failures in 1 hour indicates a systemic issue:
    /// - Prometheus registry corruption
    /// - Metric registration failures
    /// - Internal Prometheus errors
    ///
    /// Occasional failures (1-2 per hour) may indicate transient issues.
    ///
    /// ## Impact
    ///
    /// When metrics recording fails:
    /// - Observability data is incomplete (gaps in metrics)
    /// - Operators may not detect routing issues or performance degradation
    /// - Request continues normally (metrics are non-critical to functionality)
    /// - Failure is logged for investigation
    ///
    /// ## Parameters
    ///

    ///   - "record_request": Request counter recording failed
    ///   - "record_routing_duration": Routing duration histogram recording failed
