Generate PromQL queries for calculating error rates, aggregating metrics across labels, creating histogram percentiles, writing recording rules, and building SLO burn-rate alerts following Prometheus best practices. Use when creating new PromQL queries, implementing monitoring and alerting rules, building observability dashboards, working with Prometheus metrics (counters, gauges, histograms, summaries), or applying RED (Rate, Errors, Duration) and USE (Utilization, Saturation, Errors)…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# PromQL Query Generator
## When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when you need to:
- Write a PromQL query for error rates, latency percentiles, or availability.
- Author recording rules or SLO burn-rate alerting rules.
- Aggregate metrics across labels using RED or USE monitoring patterns.
- Build queries for Prometheus counters, gauges, histograms, or summaries.
- Draft Kubernetes or availability queries from the patterns in `assets/`.
## When Not to Use
- Validating or optimising an existing query: use `promql-validator` instead.
- Non-Prometheus query languages (LogQL, MetricsQL dialect specifics, SQL): use the matching tool.
- Configuring Prometheus scrape targets or storage: that is server config, not query authoring.
- Diagnosing why a metric is missing from Prometheus: check `up{job="..."}` and the scrape config instead.
## Philosophy
- **Match the function to the metric type.** rate() is for counters, histogram_quantile() for histograms; applying rate() to a gauge is meaningless.
- **Error rate is a ratio.** Express it as rated errors over rated totals across the same window, not as raw counts.

How to install
mdr add pantheon-org/tekhne/promql-generator@sha256:2ae73699befd70d4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261001.6ed2a6a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
