Investigate data incidents and find root causes using Monte Carlo's observability data. Guides the agent through systematic investigation: alert lookup, lineage tracing, ETL checks, query analysis, and data profiling. Activates when a user asks about data issues, incidents, alerts, or why data looks wrong.
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
# Monte Carlo Root Cause Analysis Skill This skill helps investigate data incidents — freshness delays, volume anomalies, schema changes, field metric drift, and ETL failures — by guiding the agent through a systematic investigation using Monte Carlo's MCP tools. It combines observability metadata with optional direct data querying to find the root cause. > **Monte Carlo tool routing (required):** Always call Monte Carlo MCP tools through this plugin's > bundled server, whose fully-qualified tool names are > `mcp__plugin_mc-agent-toolkit_monte-carlo-mcp__<tool>` (e.g. > `mcp__plugin_mc-agent-toolkit_monte-carlo-mcp__get_alerts`). Bare tool names used in this skill > (`get_alerts`, `search`, `get_table`, …) refer to that bundled server. If the session also has a > separately-configured `monte-carlo-mcp` server, do **not** route to it — it may point at a > different endpoint or credentials. Reference files live next to this skill file. **Use the Read tool** (not MCP resources) to access them: - Investigation playbooks by issue type: `references/<type>-investigation.md` - Data exploration patterns: `references/data-exploration.md` …

How to install
mdr add monte-carlo-data/mc-agent-toolkit/monte-carlo-analyze-root-cause@sha256:0554822fad36b408The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
