About this skill

This skill provides patterns for implementing OpenTelemetry to collect traces, metrics, and logs. It solves the challenge of standardizing telemetry and correlating data across distributed systems using OTLP and Collector pipelines. Use this skill when building production observability or adding instrumentation to multi-language services.

OpenTelemetry

Quick Start (signal design)

  • Export OTLP via an OpenTelemetry Collector (vendor-neutral endpoint).
  • Standardize resource attributes: service.name, service.version, deployment.environment.
  • Start with auto-instrumentation, then add manual spans and log correlation.
