Description
**Context:** ROADMAP.md → Admission backlog observability
**Related:** admission-queue-deferred-pickup draft, #331 (closed)
---
## Component
API or orchestration
## Describe the feature
**CloudWatch metric and alarm** when `SUBMITTED` task depth exceeds an operator threshold—surfacing capacity and admission health before users see failures.
## Use case
Operators cannot distinguish healthy queueing from stuck hydration or admission starvation. Proactive metrics reduce incident time.
## Proposed solution
1. Scheduled or stream-derived gauge: count tasks in `SUBMITTED` per user/fleet.
2. Dashboard widget + alarm with configurable threshold.
3. Optional dimension: time-in-SUBMITTED p95.
4. Document runbook: scale concurrency, investigate hydrator, enable admission queue when shipped.
## Other information
- Pair with **admission queue** draft.
- Design context: `docs/design/OBSERVABILITY.md`, `docs/design/ORCHESTRATOR.md`.
- [ ] This might be a breaking change
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with ROADMAP.md and the design context in docs/design/OBSERVABILITY.md and docs/design/ORCHESTRATOR.md, then review the admission-queue-deferred-pickup draft and issue #331. Define the implementation scope for SUBMITTED-depth and optional time-in-SUBMITTED metrics, the dashboard and configurable alarm, and the operator runbook; completion should cover the agreed observability and documentation pieces.
