Opentelemetry Skill

Build OpenTelemetry collector configs, instrument services, transform telemetry with OTTL, and debug missing traces, metrics, or logs. Use for OTel/otelcol collector config, OTLP export, SDK instrumentation, sampling, cardinality, TLS/PII controls, Kubernetes/Helm values.yaml deployments, collector health and alerts, and AI coding-agent telemetry (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Antigravity, GitHub Copilot, Cursor).

# OpenTelemetry Skill

## Workflow

1. **Scope the request.** Identify the signals, deployment target, Collector/SDK version, backend protocol, expected volume, outage tolerance, and trust boundaries from the supplied files or context. Ask only for missing details that change the design; state assumptions for a draft.
2. **Load relevant references.** Use the trigger table below. For version-sensitive settings, check [compatibility.md](references/compatibility.md) and the upstream documentation for the installed release.
3. **Choose the work mode.** For existing configuration, apply the review checks below before editing. For a new Collector pipeline, load [production-baseline.md](references/production-baseline.md) and the platform setup guide; adapt their examples to the user's environment. For instrumentation, load the matching SDK/agent reference. For missing or dropped telemetry, follow [validation.md](references/validation.md) from source through Collector to backend.
4. **Validate and correct.** For Collector changes, run `otelcol validate --config <path>` with the target distribution/version; render Helm values before validating the resulting config. For SDK changes, exercise a representative request and inspect emitted telemetry. Fix reported failures and repeat the affected check; if blocked, report the exact failure and remaining verification.
