Expert guidance for configuring and deploying the OpenTelemetry Collector. Use when setting up a Collector pipeline, configuring receivers, exporters, or processors, deploying a Collector to Kubernetes or Docker, or forwarding telemetry to Dash0. Triggers on requests involving collector, pipeline, OTLP receiver, exporter, or Dash0 collector setup.
Configures trace spans, defines custom metrics, sets up log exporters, and optimizes sampling strategies for OpenTelemetry instrumentation. Use when instrumenting applications with traces, metrics, or logs. Triggers on requests for observability, telemetry, tracing, metrics collection, logging integration, or OTel setup.
OpenTelemetry Transformation Language (OTTL) expert. Use when writing or debugging OTTL expressions for any OpenTelemetry Collector component that supports OTTL (processors, connectors, receivers, exporters). Triggers on tasks involving telemetry transformation, filtering, attribute manipulation, data redaction, sampling policies, routing, or Collector configuration. Covers syntax, contexts, functions, error handling, and performance.
OpenTelemetry Semantic Conventions expert. Use when selecting, applying, or reviewing telemetry attributes. Triggers on tasks involving attribute selection, semantic convention compliance, attribute migration, or custom attribute decisions. Covers the attribute registry, naming patterns, attribute placement, and versioning. For span names, span kinds, and span status codes, see the otel-instrumentation skill.
