Author, 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").
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.
Grafana Cloud cost management — usage monitoring, cost attribution by label, usage alerts, invoice management, and optimization strategies. Covers Adaptive Metrics (cardinality reduction), Adaptive Logs (log filtering), cost attribution labels, and the FOCUS-compliant billing application. Use when analyzing Grafana Cloud spending, setting up cost alerts, attributing costs to teams, reducing metric/log cardinality, or forecasting observability budgets.
Use when: user asks to create a Grafana app, initialize a grafana-app-sdk project, set up a Grafana App Platform app, scaffold a new app, or asks about deployment modes (standalone operator, grafana/apps, frontend-only), how grafana-app-sdk works, or the overall development workflow. Provides foundational knowledge of the grafana-app-sdk CLI, project structure, deployment modes, and overall workflow.
Use when writing or reviewing k6 documentation across TypeScript types, user docs, and release notes.
Create, modify, and organise Grafana dashboards including panels, variables, transformations, and alerting. Use when the user asks to create a Grafana dashboard, add a panel, configure a time series or stat panel, add template variables, set up dashboard linking, use transformations, configure thresholds, build a dashboard for a service, or export dashboard JSON. Triggers on phrases like "create dashboard", "add panel", "time series panel", "Grafana dashboard JSON", "template variables", "dashboard variable", "panel transformation", "threshold", "stat panel", "table panel", "Grafana annotations", or "dashboard folder".
Connect AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, OpenAI Codex) to Grafana Cloud via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Use when the user asks to connect Claude Code to Grafana, set up MCP for Grafana, use Grafana tools in Cursor, query Grafana from an AI agent, configure the Grafana MCP server, or make AI agents interact with Grafana Cloud APIs. Triggers on phrases like "MCP server", "connect Claude Code to Grafana", "Grafana MCP", "AI agent Grafana", "Claude Grafana tools", "Cursor Grafana", or "agent observability".
Grafana Cloud testing capabilities — Synthetic Monitoring (probing URLs, DNS, TCP, ping from multiple regions), k6 Cloud (managed load testing with distributed execution), and Frontend Observability (Faro, real user monitoring). Use when setting up uptime checks, external probes, configuring k6 cloud runs, monitoring frontend performance, or testing APIs from multiple locations.
Grafana Beyla eBPF auto-instrumentation for application observability without code changes. Covers supported languages/runtimes, requirements, installation, configuration (discovery, eBPF settings, OTLP traces export, Prometheus metrics export), Kubernetes deployment, and integration with Grafana Cloud. Use when setting up zero-code instrumentation, configuring eBPF probes, deploying Beyla to Kubernetes, connecting to Tempo/Prometheus, or troubleshooting instrumentation issues.
Migrate a Grafana plugin to React 19 compatibility. Use when the user asks to update a plugin for React 19, prepare for React 19, fix React 19 compatibility, upgrade to React 19, migrate to React 19, bump grafanaDependency to 12.3.0, externalize jsx-runtime, or run react-detect. Triggers on phrases like "update plugin for React 19", "React 19 migration", "prepare for React 19", "plugin React 19 compat", "grafanaDependency 12.3.0", "JSX runtime externals", "react-detect", "SECRET_INTERNALS", "ReactCurrentOwner", or "ReactCurrentDispatcher".
Grafana OSS core features — dashboards, panels, visualization types, data sources, template variables, alerting, annotations, provisioning, RBAC, service accounts, and configuration. Use when building dashboards, configuring data sources, setting up provisioning YAML, managing users and permissions, writing PromQL/LogQL/TraceQL in panels, or configuring Grafana server settings.
Reduce Grafana Cloud Metrics costs by managing cardinality with Adaptive Metrics aggregation rules. Use when the user asks to reduce metrics costs, manage cardinality, create aggregation rules, apply label dropping, analyse unused metrics, understand Active Series, or optimise Prometheus storage. Triggers on phrases like "adaptive metrics", "reduce cardinality", "aggregation rules", "metrics cost", "too many series", "Active Series", "label dropping", "unused metrics", "cardinality reduction", or "metrics spend".
