Assess OpenTelemetry package and Collector upgrades across ecosystems. Use when choosing or validating API, SDK, instrumentation, exporter, Collector distribution, component, image, chart, Operator, OCB build, or configuration versions, including compatibility, required changes, telemetry and runtime behavior, and rollout risk.
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 Upgrade Find the highest stable target supported by the available repository evidence and provide concise, case-specific upgrade advice. Unless the user asks for implementation, assess the upgrade without changing project files. ## Choose the workflow | Request or repository evidence | Read | |---|---| | Package manifests, lockfiles, APIs, SDKs, instrumentation libraries, exporters, plugins, or dependency constraints | [Dependency upgrade](references/dependency-upgrade.md) | | Collector binaries, images, charts, Operators, configuration, feature gates, components, OCB manifests, builds, or runtime behavior | [Collector upgrade](references/collector-upgrade.md) | | A custom Collector involving independently versioned or third-party modules | Read the Collector workflow first, then the dependency workflow for relevant module constraints. | Read only the applicable reference. Read both when the upgrade crosses both surfaces. ## Shared instructions 1. Inspect the repository and runtime evidence before choosing the workflow or assuming the ecosystem. …

How to install
mdr add ollygarden/opentelemetry-agent-skills/otel-upgrade@sha256:a46a60f866f252bfThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260903.600a3eb, 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.
