RaphaelThe Watcher Who Heals

Local trace and wide event viewer for debugging distributed systems.

Getting Started

Hosting

Straight to the point

Find what broke and why, fast, with minimal cognitive load.

Wide events + traces

First-class business events alongside traces, correlated by trace id.

Local-first

Sensible defaults and few knobs so the UI stays out of your way.

Why Another Observability Tool?

Most observability stacks optimize for production scale and configurability. When you are debugging locally (or iterating with an AI agent), that often turns into too many screens, too many knobs, and too much cognitive overhead.

Raphael is intentionally designed for speed and clarity: a fast path from "something is broken" to the specific traces and wide events that explain it.
