Diagnostic guide for active Prometheus cardinality problems — slow queries, OOMing Prometheus, high Grafana Cloud Active Series or DPM bills, "too many samples" ingest errors, series churn, or rapid memory growth. Walks through tsdb status endpoints, per-metric and per-label drill-downs, common-culprit galleries, and remediation paths. Use when the user is *currently experiencing* a cardinality fire. For preventing cardinality issues at the source, route to prometheus-label-strategy. For post-ingest aggregation, route to adaptive-metrics. For DPM-specific analysis, route to dpm-finder.
Observability visualization with Grafana and LGTM stack. Dashboard design, panel configuration, alerting, variables/templating, and data sources. USE WHEN: Creating Grafana dashboards, configuring panels and visualizations, writing LogQL/TraceQL queries, setting up Grafana data sources, configuring dashboard variables and templates, building Grafana alerts. DO NOT USE: For writing PromQL queries (use /prometheus), for alerting rule strategy (use /prometheus), for general observability architecture (use senior-software-engineer with infrastructure focus). TRIGGERS: grafana, dashboard, panel, visualization, logql, traceql, loki, tempo, mimir, data source, annotation, variable, template, row, stat, graph, table, heatmap, gauge, bar chart, pie chart, time series, logs panel, traces panel, LGTM stack.
Write, validate, and optimise PromQL queries for Prometheus and Grafana Cloud Metrics. Use when the user asks to query metrics, write a PromQL expression, calculate rates, aggregate across labels, build histogram quantiles, create recording rules, debug query performance, or understand metric cardinality. Triggers on phrases like "PromQL", "Prometheus query", "write a metric query", "calculate rate", "histogram_quantile", "recording rule", "metric cardinality", "sum by", "rate vs irate", "absent()", or "query is slow".
Optimise Grafana app plugin bundle size using React.lazy, Suspense, and webpack code splitting. Use when the user asks to reduce plugin bundle size, optimise module.js, add code splitting, improve initial plugin load performance, split plugin chunks, lazy load plugin pages, or help implement lazy loading in a Grafana app plugin. Triggers on phrases like "optimise plugin bundle size", "module.js is too large", "plugin is slow to load", "code split the plugin", "reduce initial JS payload", or "help me with Suspense in my plugin".
Grafana Professional Services tool for identifying which Prometheus metrics drive high Data Points per Minute (DPM). Analyzes metric-level DPM with per-label breakdown to help optimize Grafana Cloud costs. Use when the user asks about DPM analysis, high-cardinality metrics, metric cost optimization, finding noisy metrics, or running dpm-finder against a Grafana Cloud Prometheus endpoint.
Set up, configure, and troubleshoot Grafana Cloud integrations for AWS, Azure, and other cloud providers. Use when the user asks to connect AWS CloudWatch, set up Azure Monitor, configure Confluent Cloud observability, install a Grafana integration, set up hosted exporters, use AWS Firehose for CloudWatch logs, or troubleshoot a cloud integration. Triggers on phrases like "AWS CloudWatch", "Azure Monitor", "Confluent integration", "cloud integration", "hosted exporter", "AWS Firehose", "install integration", "cloud metrics", or "cloud logs".
Grafana Cloud infrastructure monitoring — Kubernetes monitoring, cloud provider integrations (AWS, Azure, GCP), host and container monitoring, infrastructure dashboards, and collector setup. Use when setting up Kubernetes monitoring, connecting cloud provider metrics, configuring node exporter or cAdvisor, setting up infrastructure dashboards, or using the k8s-monitoring Helm chart.
Expert evaluator for Grafana Loki label strategy. Audits, designs, and improves label schemas using cardinality scoring, access-pattern alignment, static vs. dynamic label rules, and consistency checks. Use when the user asks to evaluate, audit, design, or improve a Loki label strategy — or asks why their Loki queries are slow.
Generate a copy-paste Grafana data source provisioning file (YAML or Terraform) for any plugin from its standardized settings schema on the plugins CDN. Use when the user wants to provision or configure a data source as code — e.g. "provision infinity", "datasource yaml for clickhouse", "terraform for the github datasource" — even when they only name the plugin and not the word "provisioning".
Grafana-to-Perses dashboard migration: export Grafana dashboards, convert with percli migrate, validate converted output, fix incompatibilities, deploy to Perses. Handles bulk migration with parallel processing. Use for "migrate grafana", "grafana to perses", "perses migrate", "convert grafana". Do NOT use for creating new dashboards from scratch (use perses-dashboard-create).
Grafana Loki log aggregation and LogQL query language. Covers LogQL syntax (log queries, metric queries, label matchers, line filters, parsers: json/logfmt/pattern/regexp/unpack, label filters, line_format), Loki architecture, log ingestion via Alloy/Promtail/Fluent Bit, structured metadata, and Logs Drilldown. Use when writing LogQL queries, configuring Loki, troubleshooting log pipelines, or analyzing logs.
Grafana Cloud Application Observability (APM), Frontend Observability (RUM/Faro), and AI Observability. Covers RED metrics (Rate/Error/Duration), service maps, span metrics from traces, Faro JavaScript/React SDK for browser instrumentation, session replay, AI/LLM model monitoring, and integration with traces/logs/profiles for full-stack correlation. Use when setting up APM, configuring frontend monitoring, analyzing service performance, or monitoring AI/LLM applications.
