+### Observe An Ordinary Run
+
+Set `RunRequest.Observer` to receive synchronous metadata events from `Run`:
+
+```go
+request.Observer = func(event promptkit.ExecutionEvent) {
+	// Translate selected metadata into an application-owned record.
+}
+result, err := engine.Run(ctx, request)
+```
+
+An ordinary run emits `started` before request conversion, followed by any
+attempt and retry-delay completions, then one `finished` event on a normal
+return. `Prepare` and `PrepareExecution` emit no events. A start event has no
+resolved prompt, profile, or model; later events gain identities only as
+selection succeeds. The terminal event has dispatched-attempt, transient-retry,
+repair-call, duration, and presence-aware usage totals. Its usage is an
+aggregate, not an additional billable attempt. A known zero differs from an
+unknown count, and incomplete totals must not be treated as complete cost
+accounting. A failed operation still returns no partial `RunResult`.
+
+Callbacks run synchronously, in order for one operation, and can overlap for
+different operations. Synchronize shared callback state and avoid blocking on
+work that needs the same run's admission slot. Callback panics propagate;
+there is no durable event history or promise of a terminal event after panic.
+Events omit content and error objects, but selected identifiers may still be
+sensitive. See the [observation GoDoc](../../observations.go) for exact fields.
