X-CS historically has been for Wikipedia Zero operator tagging. Not sure about use of X-Analytics or other headers for alpha/beta/stable channel stuff.

I recall at some point the mobile site was setting the site type (Beta vs. Normal) in one of the headers, either X-Analytics or X-CS. But I don't see any of that in the most recent varnish code [1]. I might not be looking in the right place, or it may not be happening any more. CC-ing mobile list as someone there likely knows.

Sorry, this should be:
Mobile web beta does not have any special url. It is triggered by a
cookie. If the COOKIE that identifies 'mobile-web-beta' is stripped off in varnish (something you can ask your devs about)...

Right now the Gather feature is only available/discoverable on mobile
web beta for english wikipedia. I assume "mobile web beta" is deployed to enwiki in production just like an special "skin" or 'extension.
Mobile web beta does not have any special url. It is triggered by a
cookie. If the that identifies 'mobile-web-beta' is stripped off in varnish (something you can ask your devs about) then there is no way for you to see that traffic. (this is the most-likely case I was looking around and couldn't find any code that would be persisting this cookies further than varnish). However, if the cookie value is persisted to x-analytics field then records are "findable".
Now, if there are any javascript/css files ONLY used by the "mobile web beta feature" you could do a (very, very) rough estimation of requests by looking at those. Probably you want to team up with a developer to find out whether this is possible.

Hi Nuria, Right now the Gather feature is only available/discoverable on mobile web beta for english wikipedia. As such, it is really important that I know what the overall traffic is on mobile web beta. How can I discover this using web request logs? Mobile web beta does not have any special url.
It is triggered by a cookie. Here is how a user opts in. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
