eas-observe

Use for anything related to EAS Observe - adding `expo-observe` to an Expo project (AppMetricsRoot/ObserveRoot HOC, markInteractive and ObserveInteractiveMarker, the useObserve hook, the Expo Router / React Navigation integrations for per-route metrics, user-defined events via `Observe.logEvent`, error reporting via ObserveErrorBoundary and `Observe.reportError`, native crash reporting, source map upload for symbolicated stack traces, and runtime config such as sampleRate and dispatchInDebug), querying via the EAS CLI (`eas observe:metrics-summary`, `observe:metrics`, `observe:routes`, `observe:events`, `observe:session`, `observe:versions`, `observe:errors`, `observe:event`), interpreting the resulting metrics (cold/warm launch, TTR, TTI, navigation cold/warm TTR, update download, and the TTI frameRate/device/network params for triaging slow startups), or shipping an Observe integration inside a third-party package.

EAS Observe

EAS service - costs apply. EAS Observe is an Expo Application Services product. The free EAS plan allows up to 10,000 monthly active users, with a limited set of features; higher usage requires a paid subscription. For details, see https://expo.dev/pricing#plan-features.

EAS Observe tracks startup, navigation, and custom-event performance from production Expo apps, and records JavaScript errors and native crashes. It needs a development or production build — the native library is not in Expo Go.

Source of truth: https://docs.expo.dev/eas/observe/ — always consult the canonical docs when API details matter, especially get-started, configuration, integrations, and the metrics reference. EAS Observe is evolving; this skill's references are written to stay accurate but may lag the docs.

Which reference to read

The four reference files in ./references/ cover what people typically need this skill for:

  • Adding EAS Observe to a project → ./references/setup.md. Install, wrap the root layout (AppMetricsRoot on SDK 55, ObserveRoot on SDK 56+), mark the app interactive (global markInteractive() on SDK 55, the useObserve() hook or <ObserveInteractiveMarker /> on SDK 56+), optional per-route navigation metrics through the Expo Router / React Navigation integrations, user-defined events via Observe.logEvent (SDK 56+), error reporting, and runtime configuration (sampling, dispatch, environments, custom endpoint).
  • Querying metrics from the terminal → ./references/queries.md. The eas observe:* commands — metrics-summary, metrics, routes, events, session, versions, errors, event — with flags, metric aliases, table layouts, JSON shapes, and common workflows.
  • Reading a dashboard or CLI output → ./references/metrics.md. Target thresholds per metric, what the automatic TTI params mean (frameRate.*, device.*, network.*), and diagnostic patterns for telling slow-but-smooth startup apart from main-thread contention, hard blocks, or throttled devices.
  • Shipping an Observe integration in a library → ./references/third-party.md. For package authors only (SDK 57+): optional peer dependency, config declaration merging, Observe.registerIntegration(), and event naming.

Submitting Feedback

If you encounter errors, misleading or outdated information in this skill, report it so Expo can improve:

npx --yes submit-expo-feedback@latest --category skills --subject "eas-observe" "<actionable feedback>"

Only submit when you have something specific and actionable to report. Include as much relevant context as possible. If an AI agent repeatedly failed or the user had to take over an Expo task, load the expo-skill-feedback skill and follow its eval-candidate flow instead of reusing the command above.

Build and submit iOS and Android apps with EAS to TestFlight, the App Store, or Google Play. Supports Expo and other React Native projects, plus existing native apps. Use for eas.json setup, release pipelines, signing, app versions and build numbers, store submissions, and listing metadata. For Expo websites and API routes, use eas-hosting; for adding React Native screens to a native app, use expo-brownfield.

Deploy Expo websites and Expo Router API routes to EAS Hosting - export the web bundle, run eas deploy for production and PR preview URLs, manage environment secrets and custom domains, and work within the Cloudflare Workers runtime. Also covers authoring API routes (+api.ts handlers, HTTP methods, request handling, CORS). Use when deploying an Expo web app or API routes, setting up EAS Hosting, or configuring hosting environments and domains. Not for native builds or store releases - use the eas-app-stores skill for those.

Run and control a user's app on a remote iOS/Android simulator hosted on EAS cloud. Read before running any `eas simulator:*` commands - it has the current syntax for this experimental API. Use whenever the user needs a simulator they can't run locally - 'run my app on a cloud simulator', 'use eas simulator to run/install/screenshot my app', 'I'm on Linux/Cursor and need an iOS device', 'no sim on this box / headless CI', 'let an agent click through my app and screenshot it', 'test my dev build on a remote sim with live reload', 'stream a sim to my browser' - even when they don't say 'EAS Simulator' or 'cloud'. On a host WITHOUT a local simulator (Linux, CI, cloud sandbox) it's the default; on macOS, do NOT auto-trigger for a plain 'run on the simulator' - use it only for a cloud/remote/shareable sim, an iOS version they lack, or an agent-driven session. NOT for local sims (expo run:ios, Xcode, Android Studio), EAS Build/Update, web preview, or physical devices.

Configure and use EAS Update for over-the-air JavaScript and asset updates with expo-updates and EAS CLI. Use when setting up OTA updates, running eas update:configure or eas update, publishing to preview/staging/production channels, explaining branches/channels/runtime versions, testing updates, or debugging why an installed build still shows old code. Load for TestFlight, preview, or production updates that do not appear, including questions about cold launches or reopening the app. Not for update health metrics; use eas-update-insights for adoption, crashes, and rollout monitoring.

Check the health of published EAS Update: crash rates, install/launch counts, unique users, payload size, and the split between embedded and OTA users per channel. Use when the user asks how an update is performing, whether a rollout is healthy, how many users are on the embedded build vs OTA, or wants to gate CI on update health.
