skywalking

Verify, commit, and push changes on a PR branch. Runs pre-flight checks (compile, checkstyle, license headers) before every push. Also creates the PR if one doesn't exist yet.

Add a new monitoring target / layer to SkyWalking OAP. Orients you to the OAL / MAL / LAL / SpanListener / SegmentListener extension points, the UI template + submodule touchpoints, the docs set that must move together, and the cross-cutting traps that don't live in any one skill.

Run SkyWalking E2E tests locally

Rebuild the SkyWalking distribution and OAP Docker image after source changes. Use before running e2e tests so the image reflects your code changes. Avoids the "image looks updated but runtime has stale jars" trap.

Download and inspect CI e2e test logs from GitHub Actions artifacts. Use when investigating e2e test failures in CI.

Generate bytecode classes from DSL scripts (MAL, OAL, LAL, Hierarchy). Runs the compiler and dumps .class files for inspection.

Build SkyWalking OAP server, run javadoc checks, and verify checkstyle. Use to validate changes before submitting a PR.

Check and fix Apache 2.0 license headers and dependency licenses using skywalking-eyes. Use before submitting a PR.

Run unit tests, integration tests, or slow integration tests matching CI. Use to validate changes before submitting a PR.
