Monte Carlo Asset Health Skill
This skill checks the health of a data asset using Monte Carlo's observability
platform. It produces a structured health report covering freshness, alerts,
monitoring coverage, importance, and upstream dependency health.
Monte Carlo tool routing (required): Always call Monte Carlo MCP tools through this plugin's
bundled server, whose fully-qualified tool names are
mcp__plugin_mc-agent-toolkit_monte-carlo-mcp__<tool> (e.g.
mcp__plugin_mc-agent-toolkit_monte-carlo-mcp__get_alerts). Bare tool names used in this skill
(get_alerts, search, get_table, …) refer to that bundled server. If the session also has a
separately-configured monte-carlo-mcp server, do not route to it — it may point at a
different endpoint or credentials.
REQUIRED: Read reference files before executing
You MUST read both reference files using the Read tool before making any MCP
tool calls. These files are the source of truth for tool calls, parameters,
and response interpretation. This file only defines when to activate and how to
format the output.
references/workflows.md (relative to this file) — exact tool calls, phases, and execution order
references/parameters.md (relative to this file) — parameter conventions and field details
Do NOT make any MCP tool calls until you have read both files.
When to activate this skill
Activate when the user:
- Asks about health: "how is table X doing?", "check health of X", "is X healthy?"
- Asks about status: "what's the status of X?", "status of orders table"
- Asks to check on a table: "check on X table", "check on X"
- Asks about reliability, freshness, or quality of a specific asset
- References a table in context of incident triage or change planning
When NOT to activate this skill
- Profiling or exploring table data (row counts, column stats, distributions) → use
explore-table
- Creating or suggesting monitors → use
monitoring-advisor
- Active incident triage (investigating root cause of a firing alert) → use prevent skill Workflow 3
Health report format
CRITICAL: Only report data returned by the tools defined in references/workflows.md.
Do NOT call additional tools, do NOT infer or fabricate metrics. Each row below
specifies exactly which tool provides its value.
