Build OpenTelemetry collector configs, instrument services, transform telemetry with OTTL, and debug missing traces, metrics, or logs. Use for OTel/otelcol collector config, OTLP export, SDK instrumentation, sampling, cardinality, TLS/PII controls, Kubernetes/Helm values.yaml deployments, collector health and alerts, and AI coding-agent telemetry (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Antigravity, GitHub Copilot, Cursor).
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
# OpenTelemetry Skill ## Workflow 1. **Scope the request.** Identify the signals, deployment target, Collector/SDK version, backend protocol, expected volume, outage tolerance, and trust boundaries from the supplied files or context. Ask only for missing details that change the design; state assumptions for a draft. 2. **Load relevant references.** Use the trigger table below. For version-sensitive settings, check [compatibility.md](references/compatibility.md) and the upstream documentation for the installed release. 3. **Choose the work mode.** For existing configuration, apply the review checks below before editing. For a new Collector pipeline, load [production-baseline.md](references/production-baseline.md) and the platform setup guide; adapt their examples to the user's environment. For instrumentation, load the matching SDK/agent reference. For missing or dropped telemetry, follow [validation.md](references/validation.md) from source through Collector to backend. …

How to install
mdr add o11y-dev/opentelemetry-skill/opentelemetry-skill@sha256:bd6d34dc2987ae22The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.5.6, 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.
