otel-instrumentation

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-instrumentation

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

Curated external (hand-maintained)

Composed compose-external-wave-8 using authoring SSOT (docs/src/authoring/skills/otel-instrumentation.mdx) + research. Do not run wagents docs generate on this file (HAND-MAINTAINED sentinel). Run /review source before using in production or promoting.

What It Does

otel-instrumentation guides application instrumentation for traces, metrics, and logs using OpenTelemetry SDKs. Covers resource attributes, span hygiene, metric instrument selection, sensitive-data redaction, per-language SDK setup (Node, Go, Python, Java, etc.), and validation checklists. Defers sampling to the Collector.

Harness Coverage

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

Portable multi-harness install command:

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 / Audit

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 in authoring SSOT docs/src/authoring/skills/otel-instrumentation.mdx and docs/public/generated-registries/skills-catalog-index.json; research context is advisory.

Install Prerequisites

Same dash0hq/agent-skills bundle install.
