Vendor-neutral OpenTelemetry instrumentation, semantic conventions, and Collector pipelines.

Quick Start

Install:

npx skills add dash0hq/agent-skills --skill otel-instrumentation --skill otel-semantic-conventions --skill otel-collector -y -g -a antigravity claude-code codex crush cursor gemini-cli github-copilot grok opencode

Use: /otel-collector

Works with Claude Code, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, and other agentskills.io-compatible agents.

otel-collector provides expert configuration for the OpenTelemetry Collector (receivers, exporters, processors, pipelines, deployment modes, sampling, RED metrics, custom distributions). Mandates memory_limiter first, one pipeline per signal, and explicit validation. Includes Dash0 export examples but is vendor-neutral for OTLP.

Targets verified harnesses: antigravity, claude-code, codex, crush, cursor, gemini-cli, github-copilot, grok, opencode.

Portable multi-harness install command:

Terminal window
npx skills add dash0hq/agent-skills --skill otel-instrumentation --skill otel-semantic-conventions --skill otel-collector -y -g -a antigravity claude-code codex crush cursor gemini-cli github-copilot grok opencode

Trust tier: Inspect first (needs-inspection)

Curated status: inspect-then-install

Risk notes: Vendor-neutral OpenTelemetry instrumentation, semantic conventions, and Collector pipelines. Complements Phoenix/Arize vendor-specific tracing skills; optional Dash0 backend references are not required for OTLP export.

Entry maintained via authoring + research for compose-external-wave-9; provenance and audit notes are authoritative there (research context is advisory).

npx skills add dash0hq/agent-skills --skill otel-collector --skill otel-instrumentation --skill otel-semantic-conventions -y -g -a ...

Requires the otelcol binary or contrib image and proper auth for the target backend.
