Audit and improve recording and alerting rules. Use when reviewing alert coverage or rule health, drafting new alerts or recording rules, investigating flapping or noisy alerts, or speeding up slow dashboards with pre-computed expressions; produces complete rule-group YAML.
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
# Reviewing and Improving Prometheus Rules Recording rules pre-compute expensive or repeated expressions into new series; alerting rules turn expressions into notifications. They live together in rule groups and are best designed together -- good alerts are often built on top of good recording rules. This runbook covers auditing the rules that exist, finding gaps, and drafting improvements. ## Getting oriented - list_rules returns every rule group -- recording and alerting -- with expressions, labels, and per-rule evaluation health. - list_alerts shows what is firing right now; useful for separating "badly tuned" from "correctly noisy". - tsdb_stats reveals series counts and cardinality, which tells you whether a pre-aggregation would actually pay off. - list_targets can surface scraped services that no rule covers at all. …

How to install
mdr add prometheus/prometheus-mcp/review-prometheus-rules@sha256:22701df1916af4fdThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260721.4db318b, 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.
