Set up monitoring, logging, and observability for applications and infrastructure. Use when implementing health checks, metrics collection, log aggregation, or alerting systems. Handles Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack, Datadog, and monitoring best practices.
Golang everyday observability — the always-on signals in production. Covers structured logging with slog, Prometheus metrics, OpenTelemetry distributed tracing, continuous profiling with pprof/Pyroscope, server-side RUM event tracking, alerting, and Grafana dashboards. Apply when instrumenting Go services for production monitoring, setting up metrics or alerting, adding OpenTelemetry tracing, correlating logs with traces, migrating legacy loggers (zap/logrus/zerolog) to slog, adding observability to new features, or implementing GDPR/CCPA-compliant tracking with Customer Data Platforms (CDP). Not for temporary deep-dive performance investigation (→ See golang-benchmark and golang-performance skills).
Create and manage production Grafana dashboards for real-time visualization of system and application metrics. Use when building monitoring dashboards, visualizing metrics, or creating operational observability interfaces.
Production server monitoring stack covering Prometheus, Node Exporter, Grafana, Alertmanager, Loki, and Promtail on bare-metal or VM Linux hosts. USE WHEN: - Setting up monitoring for a new production server or VPS - Configuring Prometheus scrape targets for application or system metrics - Creating Grafana dashboards and datasource provisioning - Writing Alertmanager routing rules with email/Slack notifications - Implementing the PLG stack (Promtail + Loki + Grafana) for log aggregation - Performing live system diagnostics with htop, iotop, nethogs, ss, vmstat, iostat - Setting up uptime monitoring with UptimeRobot or healthchecks.io DO NOT USE FOR: - Kubernetes-native observability (use the kubernetes skill instead) - Application-level APM (distributed tracing with Jaeger/Tempo — use observability skill) - Cloud-managed monitoring (CloudWatch, GCP Monitoring, Azure Monitor) - Windows Server monitoring
Use this skill whenever working with QuestDB — a high-performance time-series database. Trigger on any mention of QuestDB, time-series SQL with SAMPLE BY, LATEST ON, ASOF JOIN, ILP ingestion, or the questdb Python/Go/Java/Rust/.NET client libraries. Also trigger when writing Grafana queries against QuestDB, creating materialized views for time-series rollups, working with order book or financial market data in QuestDB, or any SQL that involves designated timestamps or time-partitioned tables. QuestDB extends SQL with unique time-series keywords — standard PostgreSQL or MySQL patterns will fail. Always read this skill before writing QuestDB SQL to avoid hallucinating incorrect syntax.
Grafana Cloud Database Observability — query-level performance insights for MySQL and PostgreSQL. Covers setup with Grafana Alloy, query samples, visual explain plans, RED metrics, pg_stat_statements and Performance Schema integration, and correlation with application traces. Use when monitoring database performance, diagnosing slow queries, setting up database observability for MySQL or PostgreSQL (self-managed, RDS, Aurora, Azure, Cloud SQL), or correlating DB metrics with APM data.
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".
Design, refactor, and validate Grafana dashboards for OpenShift/Kubernetes platform operations. Use when users ask to improve platform health dashboards, prioritize critical tenant-impacting signals, filter noise (for example ArgoCD), add Crossplane/Keycloak health panels, validate PromQL programmatically, or apply GrafanaDashboard CR changes live then promote to GitOps.
Set up comprehensive infrastructure monitoring with Prometheus, Grafana, and alerting systems for metrics, health checks, and performance tracking.
Use this skill when writing or debugging Grafana k6 load testing code. Provides access to the latest official k6 documentation including API references, examples, and best practices for creating performance tests.
Browser automation for Kubernetes dashboards and web UIs. Use when interacting with Kubernetes Dashboard, Grafana, ArgoCD UI, or other web interfaces. Requires MCP_BROWSER_ENABLED=true.
Investigate a Grafana Cloud k6 test — describe the script, list run history, identify pass/fail status, pull raw metric time-series and log lines for one or more runs, and (if asked) safely edit the test script. Use when the user asks about a specific k6 cloud test or run, gives a `/a/k6-app/tests/<id>` or `/a/k6-app/runs/<id>` URL, asks "is this test passing", "why are my k6 tests failing", "show me metrics for run X", "show me logs for run X", or wants to add thresholds / fix a failing test. Trigger this skill even when the user doesn't explicitly say "investigate" — pasted `/a/k6-app/...` URLs, "why did run X fail", "what happened with my test", "is my test healthy", "the latest run looks weird", "checks are failing but the run says passed", or any request to diagnose a Grafana Cloud k6 run all qualify.
