Adaptive Metricsgrafana/skillsCut Grafana Cloud Metrics cost by shrinking active-series count with Adaptive Metrics aggregation rules — auto-recommendations from query history, custom exact/regex rules, label-drop config, unused-metric detection, and Alloy remote_write fallback. Use when investigating a high Mimir/Grafana Cloud bill, hunting high-cardinality labels (`pod_uid`, `service_instance_id`, `version`), pre-aggregating counters/gauges, dropping unused metrics, or measuring `grafanacloud_instance_active_series` before/after — even when the user says "reduce cardinality", "too many series", "metrics spend", "active series count is exploding", or "drop the version label" without naming Adaptive Metrics.02Admingrafana/skillsManage Grafana Cloud accounts — organizations, stacks, RBAC roles and assignments, SSO/SAML/OAuth/GitHub auth, service accounts for CI/CD, user invites, team membership, and API-driven provisioning. Creates stacks via the Cloud API, mints service-account tokens, applies role assignments, configures SSO providers, and provisions teams/folders/dashboards via Terraform. Use when managing Grafana Cloud access, configuring SSO/SAML/OAuth, setting up service accounts for Terraform/CI/CD, assigning RBAC roles, inviting users, managing multiple stacks or organizations, provisioning cloud resources via API or Terraform, or auditing admin actions — even when the user says "set up SSO", "create a stack", "make a service account", or "onboard a team" without explicitly saying "admin".04Admission Controlgrafana/skillsUse when the user asks to "write a validator", "add validation", "implement admission control", "write a mutating webhook", "add a mutation handler", "validate incoming resources", "implement admission logic", "add admission webhooks", "write ingress validation", or asks how to validate or mutate resources before they are persisted in a grafana-app-sdk app. Provides guidance on implementing validation and mutation admission handlers for grafana-app-sdk apps.02Alerting Irmgrafana/skillsConfigure Grafana Alerting, Incident Response Management (IRM), and SLOs end-to-end — provisions Grafana-managed and data-source-managed alert rules, contact points (Slack/PagerDuty/email/webhook), notification policies with hierarchical matchers, silences, mute timings, on-call schedules and escalation chains, incident-management integrations, and SLOs with multi-window burn-rate alerts. Use when configuring alerts, debugging notification routing, setting up on-call rotations, declaring or managing incidents, defining SLOs, provisioning alerting via YAML or API, picking matchers for a notification policy, building a PagerDuty/Slack webhook receiver, or troubleshooting why an alert isn't firing — even when the user says "page me on errors", "alert me when X happens", "route this to the platform team", or "set up an SLO" without naming Alerting or IRM.04Alloygrafana/skillsBuild a unified telemetry pipeline with Grafana Alloy — one OpenTelemetry-compatible binary that collects metrics, logs, traces, and profiles and ships to Grafana Cloud / Prometheus / Loki / Tempo / Pyroscope. Covers the Alloy config language (blocks, `sys.env`, component refs), `prometheus.scrape` → `remote_write`, `loki.source.file` + `loki.process` → `loki.write`, `otelcol.receiver.otlp` → `otelcol.exporter.otlp`, `pyroscope.scrape`, K8s / Docker / EC2 discovery, relabeling, modules (`import.file/git/http`), clustering, Fleet Management `remotecfg`, the Alloy UI at `:12345`, and `alloy fmt` / `alloy validate`. Use when writing a `config.alloy`, replacing Grafana Agent / OTel Collector, scraping K8s pods, parsing logs, ingesting OTLP, or debugging "Alloy isn't sending anything" — even when the user says "set up the agent", "write me a scrape config", "drop these logs before sending", or "OTel collector config" without naming Alloy.04App Observabilitygrafana/skillsGet RED metrics + service maps + frontend RUM + AI/LLM monitoring out of Grafana Cloud — Application Observability (`traces_spanmetrics_*` from OTel traces, p50/p95/p99 latency, exemplar-to-trace, traces-to-logs / profiles), Frontend Observability with the Faro Web SDK (Core Web Vitals, session replay, `pushError`, React + router integration, `TracingInstrumentation` for browser → backend trace correlation), and AI Observability via OpenLIT (token / cost / latency, GPU, hallucination + toxicity evals). Use when standing up APM for a service, wiring an Alloy OTLP receiver + forwarding to Cloud, instrumenting a React frontend for RUM, debugging why service-map edges are missing, monitoring LLM cost drift, or correlating a frontend error to its backend trace — even when the user says "set up APM", "show service map", "monitor browser perf", "session replay", "RUM SDK", or "watch our OpenAI bill" without naming App / Frontend / AI Observability.06App SDK Conceptsgrafana/skillsUse when starting any grafana-app-sdk work — scaffolding a Grafana app, initializing a Grafana App Platform app, picking a deployment mode (standalone operator / grafana/apps / frontend-only), wiring app-specific config, or onboarding to the SDK. Covers `grafana-app-sdk` CLI install, `project init` per deployment mode, project layout, the schema-centric workflow (CUE kinds → generated code → reconciler/admission logic), and `SpecificConfig` for env-driven app configuration. Use even if the user just says "make a new app", "Grafana app platform", "kinds and watchers", "operator scaffold", or asks about `apps/` inside the Grafana repo, without naming the SDK explicitly.07Assistant MCPgrafana/skillsConnect AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, OpenAI Codex) to Grafana Cloud via the `mcp-grafana` Model Context Protocol server. Installs the server with `go install`, generates a Grafana service-account token, wires `~/.claude/settings.json` or `~/.cursor/mcp.json` with the `command` + `env` block, runs `--disable-write` for safer read-only sessions, switches to SSE transport for team-shared / VS Code setups, and verifies with `/mcp` + a `list_datasources` round-trip. Use when connecting Claude Code to Grafana, setting up MCP for Grafana, configuring the Grafana MCP server, using Grafana tools in Cursor/VS Code, querying Grafana from an AI agent, sharing the MCP server across a team — even when the user says "give my agent Grafana access", "let Claude see my metrics", or "Cursor + Grafana" without saying "MCP".04Audit And Reduce Dependenciesgrafana/skills>-01Beylagrafana/skillsAuto-instrument an application's HTTP / gRPC / DB traffic with Grafana Beyla eBPF — no code changes, no SDK, no restart.

Use when adding observability to a service you can't recompile, instrumenting a closed-source binary, getting RED metrics + spans onto Tempo/Mimir without touching the app, or rolling Beyla as a cluster-wide DaemonSet — even when the user says "zero-code APM", "instrument legacy app", "trace this binary", "eBPF observability", or "no SDK" without naming Beyla.03Check npmgrafana/skills>-04Cost Managementgrafana/skillsCut your Grafana Cloud bill by attributing spend to teams and reducing telemetry volume. Covers FOCUS-compliant billing dashboards, cost-attribution labels in Alloy, Adaptive Metrics (cardinality reduction), Adaptive Logs (drop/sample), Adaptive Traces (tail sampling), usage alerts, and an optimization checklist. Use when investigating a high Grafana Cloud bill, attributing observability cost to a team or service, reducing active series / log bytes / trace spans, or setting up usage / quota alerts — even when the user says "our Grafana bill is too high", "who's burning the most metrics", "drop debug logs", "sample our traces", or "alert me before we hit quota" without naming Cost Management.03Cue Kind Definitiongrafana/skillsAuthor CUE kind definitions for grafana-app-sdk apps - schemas, versioning, field constraints, named type definitions, custom routes, and codegen configuration. Scaffolds kinds via `grafana-app-sdk project kind add`, writes spec/status schemas with type constraints (regex, enum, range), defines `#`-prefixed named types for reusable structs, registers versions in the app manifest, and runs `grafana-app-sdk generate` with explicit error recovery. Use when working with CUE kinds, adding a new resource type, adding a version to an existing kind, writing schema field constraints, defining `#Definition` types, adding custom routes, editing files under `kinds/`, or when the user asks to "model a resource", "add a CUE schema", or "write a kind" — even without saying "CUE" explicitly.06Dashboardinggrafana/skillsBuild, modify, and ship Grafana dashboards as JSON via the HTTP API — panel types (timeseries / stat / gauge / table / heatmap / logs / traces / node-graph), `gridPos` 24-column layout, units, thresholds, template + datasource + chained variables, transformations (`organize` / `calculateField` / `filterByValue`), panel + dashboard links with `${__field.labels.x}` / `${__from}`, and Loki/Prometheus annotations. Use when scripting dashboard creation, writing the dashboard JSON for a new service, adding a `$job` dropdown variable, computing an "Error %" column with a transformation, overlaying deploys as annotations, or pushing a dashboard via `POST /api/dashboards/db` — even when the user says "create a dashboard for this metric", "add a service dropdown", "show errors as percentage", "overlay our deploys", or "export the dashboard JSON" without naming the API or schema. After every API push, verify with the returned `version` plus a GET on the dashboard UID.02Database Observabilitygrafana/skillsSet up Grafana Cloud Database Observability for MySQL and PostgreSQL — enables `pg_stat_statements` / Performance Schema, creates a least-privilege monitoring user, configures the `database_observability.postgres` / `database_observability.mysql` Alloy components, ships query samples + visual explain plans + RED metrics + schema details to Grafana Cloud, and correlates slow queries with application traces via `db.statement` / `db.system` OTel attributes. Use when monitoring database performance, diagnosing slow queries, setting up DB observability for RDS / Aurora / Cloud SQL / Azure Database / self-managed instances, correlating DB metrics with APM, or alerting on query latency — even when the user says "my database is slow", "find the slow queries", or "monitor RDS" without saying "observability".03Datasources Provisioninggrafana/skillsGenerate 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".01Dpm Findergrafana/skillsFind the Prometheus metrics that drive your Grafana Cloud bill. `dpm-finder` is a Grafana Professional Services CLI that ranks metrics by Data Points per Minute (DPM) with per-label-set breakdown, optional `--cost-per-1000-series` pricing, and a Prometheus-exporter mode. Use when investigating high Grafana Cloud spend, hunting noisy / high-cardinality metrics, comparing pre/post recording-rule cardinality, or feeding cost data into dashboards — even when the user says "why is my Mimir bill so high?", "find the biggest metrics", "cardinality offenders", or "optimize Prometheus cost" without naming dpm-finder.02Fleet Managementgrafana/skillsManage a fleet of Grafana Alloy collectors with Fleet Management — author Alloy pipelines once, target them via attribute matchers (`env="production"`, regex `region=~"us-.*"`), push remotely via OpAMP without restarting collectors. Covers pipeline create / update / matcher RPCs, collector attribute API, `remotecfg` bootstrap block (standalone + Helm), pre-deploy `alloy fmt` validation, the local Alloy UI at port 12345 for component health, and post-deploy `REMOTE_CONFIG_STATUS_APPLIED` verification. Use when standing up a Cloud Alloy fleet, pushing a config change to 200 collectors, hunting why one collector shows `REMOTE_CONFIG_STATUS_FAILED`, validating River syntax before saving, or wiring `discovery.kubernetes` → `prometheus.remote_write` — even when the user says "configure Alloy", "remote config the collectors", "push pipeline", "OpAMP", "collector is unhealthy", or "manage agent config centrally" without naming Fleet Management.03Grafana Ossgrafana/skillsConfigure Grafana OSS — provisions dashboards from YAML, sets up data sources (Prometheus / Loki / Tempo / Pyroscope), writes dashboard JSON with template variables, builds panel queries, assigns built-in roles (Viewer / Editor / Admin / GrafanaAdmin), mints service-account tokens, edits grafana.ini server config, creates annotations, installs plugins via provisioning, and validates each step with a health-check curl. Use when building dashboards, configuring data sources, setting up provisioning YAML, picking a panel type, writing template variables, managing users and roles, configuring SMTP/OAuth in grafana.ini, creating annotations via API, troubleshooting why a provisioned dashboard isn't showing up, or running Grafana OSS locally — even when the user says "set up a Prometheus data source", "provision dashboards from git", "make a service account", or "configure SSO in OSS" without saying "Grafana OSS".09Grafana Scenesgrafana/skillsBuild Grafana plugin pages using the @grafana/scenes framework. Use when creating new scene pages, adding panels/visualizations, setting up drilldown navigation, defining variables, configuring query runners, building table/timeseries/stat panels, or extending SceneObjectBase for custom scene objects.

Use when onboarding a new cluster or VM fleet to Grafana Cloud, picking the right Helm values for K8s scraping, wiring kube-state-metrics + node-exporter + cAdvisor, alerting on `PodCrashLooping` / node memory / PVC capacity, or pulling AWS / Azure / GCP cloud metrics — even when the user says "monitor my cluster", "send K8s metrics to Grafana", "scrape EC2 metrics", "cluster pod logs", or "install the monitoring helm chart" without naming `k8s-monitoring` or Alloy.03K6grafana/skillsGenerate, validate, and review k6 test scripts — load, stress, spike, soak, smoke, breakpoint, functional, and protocol. Covers HTTP, WebSocket, gRPC, browser, all executors, thresholds, checks, custom metrics, the k6-testing library, k6 Cloud execution, and the xk6 extension ecosystem; uses the xk6-docs CLI (with grafana.com web fallback) for docs lookup and validates every script by running it. Use when writing, generating, validating, or debugging any k6 or load-test script (including plain-language asks like "load test this API" or "stress test my service"), choosing executors/scenarios, or setting thresholds. For end-to-end website performance suites use k6-perf-test-website; for documenting k6 itself use k6-docs.022K6 Cloud Investigate Testgrafana/skillsInvestigate 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.02K6 Docsgrafana/skillsWrite or review k6 documentation across the three k6 repositories - k6-DefinitelyTyped (TypeScript types), k6-docs (user documentation), and k6 (release notes / changelog). Applies k6 doc style conventions, generates TypeScript type definitions, drafts release notes, and validates examples by running them against k6@master. Use when working on k6 documentation, the k6 changelog, the k6 release notes, k6 API reference, k6 TypeScript types, load testing docs, or when the user asks to write, edit, or review anything in the k6, k6-docs, or k6-DefinitelyTyped repos - even if they don't explicitly say "documentation".021K6 Managegrafana/skillsInteract with Grafana Cloud k6 (GCk6) — manage load tests, test runs, scripts, projects, schedules, env vars, fetch metrics or logs, and run scripts locally — using the `gcx` CLI (or direct curl when gcx is unavailable). Use this skill whenever the user mentions a k6 cloud test or run, asks to list/edit/create/start/abort k6 load tests, wants to fetch logs or metrics for a test run, manage k6 project limits or schedules, run a k6 script locally or via `k6 cloud run`, or needs to call any `/cloud/v6/`, `/cloud/v5/`, or k6-app Loki endpoint against a Grafana Cloud stack. Trigger even when the user doesn't explicitly say "gcx" or "API" — phrases like "why did my k6 test fail", "show me logs for run X", "bump VUh limit on project Y", or "update my k6 script" all qualify.02K6 Perf Test Websitegrafana/skills>030K6 Test Maintenancegrafana/skills>03K6 Trend Analysisgrafana/skills>01Lokigrafana/skills>01Loki Label Analyzergrafana/skills>05Mimirgrafana/skillsStand up Grafana Mimir for horizontally scalable, multi-tenant, long-term Prometheus + OTLP metrics storage.

Use when you want anomaly alerts without static thresholds, natural-language querying, automated incident investigation, dashboards generated from a sentence, or a managed LLM proxy for plugins — even when the user says "alert when something looks weird", "explain this PromQL", "find the root cause", "make this a dashboard", or "wire Claude into Grafana" without naming any of these products.03Oncall Irmgrafana/skillsRoute alerts, run on-call rotations, and drive incidents in Grafana IRM / OnCall — integrations (Alertmanager / Grafana Alerting / generic webhook / PagerDuty), Jinja2 routing + grouping templates, escalation chains (wait → notify schedule → notify team → webhook → auto-resolve), schedules (web + iCal + Terraform `grafana_oncall_schedule`), Slack chatops with Acknowledge/Resolve/Silence, and the P1-P4 incident lifecycle. Use when wiring Alertmanager to OnCall, deciding which team gets paged, building rotations from a Google Calendar / iCal, hooking up Slack notifications, or declaring an incident from an alert — even when the user says "page the platform team on critical alerts", "send Prometheus alerts to Slack", "set up our on-call rota", "escalation policy", or "auto-resolve when the alert clears" without naming OnCall / IRM. Heads up — OnCall OSS is in maintenance mode (archived March 2026); Grafana Cloud users should use IRM.03Opentelemetrygrafana/skillsInstrument any app with OpenTelemetry and ship metrics / logs / traces to Grafana Cloud or self-hosted Mimir / Loki / Tempo / Pyroscope.

Covers three instrumentation paths — language SDK push (Go / Java / Python / Ruby / Node / .NET / Rust), Alloy eBPF auto-instrumentation (no code change, requires kernel 5.8+ with BTF), and SDK → Alloy receiver — plus ProfileQL queries, profile types (CPU / memory / allocations / goroutines / mutex), Grafana Cloud Profiles endpoint, and Span Profiles trace-to-profile linking. Use when adding profiling to a service, deploying Alloy as a cluster-wide eBPF profiler, hunting CPU / memory hotspots from a flame graph, comparing two profiles to find a regression, or correlating a slow Tempo trace to its profile — even when the user says "find what's burning CPU", "flame graph this app", "continuous profiling", "heap hotspots", or "why is allocation so high" without naming Pyroscope.03Reconciler Logicgrafana/skillsImplement reconcilers and watchers for grafana-app-sdk apps — write `TypedReconciler[*MyKind]` reconcile functions, apply generation-based skip patterns, do conflict-safe status updates via `resource.UpdateObject`, configure `BasicReconcileOptions` (namespace, label/field filters, finalizer management), use `Watcher` for event-style handling, reconcile `UnmanagedKinds` (resources your app doesn't own), and register the whole thing in `app.go`. Use when writing a reconciler, implementing the reconcile loop, adding async business logic, handling create/update/delete events, processing resource state changes, scheduling periodic resyncs with `RequeueAfter`, picking between Watcher and Reconciler, or wiring a controller into `app.go` — even when the user says "process this resource", "handle X events", or "write a controller" without saying "reconciler".06Send Datagrafana/skills>01Skill Authoringgrafana/skillsAuthor, audit, and improve Grafana SKILL.md files against Anthropic's published Agent Skills guidance and the four-dimension rubric the grafana/skills CI gate uses (conciseness, actionability, workflow clarity, progressive disclosure). Applies the canonical SKILL.md structure (YAML frontmatter + body + references/ + scripts/ + assets/), the "pushy description" trigger pattern, the three-level progressive-disclosure model, and the validate-fix-rerun feedback loop. Use when creating a new skill in this repo, when reviewing a skill PR, when a skill's Tessl review score is below 75 (the merge gate), when a skill's description isn't getting picked up by agents, when restructuring a long SKILL.md into a bundle, or when the user asks how to write, improve, optimize, audit, or fix a skill - even if they don't say "skill" explicitly (e.g. "this isn't triggering", "Tessl scored this 72", "split this doc").05Synthetic Monitoring Checksgrafana/skills>02Tempografana/skillsStand up Grafana Tempo as a cost-efficient distributed-tracing backend that only needs object storage, and write TraceQL queries against it.
