  "notes": "Histogram observation — `|h` is the explicit histogram type letter used by DogStatsD and Telegraf. In vanilla StatsD, histograms are configured per-metric via the `histogram` config key with named bin boundaries. The bin `[0.1, 1)` receives the contribution; the daemon emits per-bin counters on flush."
