netdata-instrumentation

Use when adding OpenTelemetry instrumentation to application code that will report to Netdata. Covers SDK setup, resource attributes, auto-instrumentation, and patterns for Node.js, Python, Java, Go, .NET, Ruby, and PHP. Emits metrics, logs, and traces via OTLP gRPC to Netdata. Traces need a Netdata Agent built after 2026-08-17 (nightly) or the first stable release after v2.11.1; stable v2.11.x does not accept them.

netdata-collector-config

Use when building or modifying an OpenTelemetry Collector pipeline that forwards telemetry to Netdata. Covers receivers, processors, exporters, and three deployment patterns (DaemonSet, gateway, and OpenTelemetry Operator). Teaches how to shape chart dimensions via an OTLP attribute plus a mapping file, since Netdata does not expose producer-driven annotations for chart layout.

netdata-config-from-requirements

Use when a customer or prospect has sent a written requirements document, architecture brief, or RFP and the deliverable is a config bundle (Netdata otel.yaml, OpenTelemetry Collector pipelines, per-language instrumentation handoff, verification playbook) that the customer applies themselves. Unlike netdata-instrumentation and netdata-otel-setup, this skill operates without access to the customer's codebase or running infrastructure: inputs are prose, outputs are YAML files, Markdown runbooks, and an explicit list of open questions for the account team. Covers requirements extraction, ambiguity flagging, bundle layout, and composition with netdata-otel-setup, netdata-collector-config, netdata-instrumentation, and netdata-migration.

netdata-migration

Use when migrating observability from Datadog, New Relic, Dynatrace, or Prometheus to Netdata. Covers SDK replacement, exporter reconfiguration, Prometheus endpoint passthrough, and dashboard parity expectations.
