dt-obs-aws

AWS cloud resource monitoring including EC2, RDS, Lambda, ECS/EKS, VPC networking, load balancers, S3, DynamoDB, SQS/SNS, and cost optimization.

Trigger: "show EC2 instances", "find RDS databases", "VPC resources", "AWS cost optimization", "Lambda functions", "ECS services", "security groups", "unattached EBS volumes", "AWS load balancer topology", "publicly accessible databases", "AWS dashboards". Do NOT use for explaining existing queries, product documentation questions, generic host CPU/memory metrics (use dt-obs-hosts), application-level tracing (use dt-obs-tracing), or log analysis (use dt-obs-logs).

dt-obs-services

Service performance monitoring with RED metrics (Rate, Errors, Duration) and runtime-specific telemetry for Java, .NET, Node.js, Python, PHP, and Go. Use when analyzing service health, SLA compliance, or runtime issues. Trigger: "service response time", "error rate", "throughput", "SLA compliance", "service mesh overhead", "JVM GC", "Java heap", "Node.js event loop", ".NET CLR", "Python threads", "PHP OPcache", "Go goroutines", "service performance", "p95 latency", "request failures", "database response time by name". Do NOT use for explaining existing queries, product documentation questions, infrastructure metrics (use dt-obs-hosts), log analysis (use dt-obs-logs), or distributed tracing workflows (use dt-obs-tracing).

dt-obs-logs

Log querying, filtering, pattern analysis, and error rate calculation. Use when searching application or infrastructure logs, analyzing error patterns, or correlating log data. Trigger: "show error logs", "search logs for keyword", "log error rate", "recent errors", "logs from last hour", "find log entries", "top error messages", "log patterns", "parse JSON logs", "logs by process group", "log trends over time", "log entry counts per minute". Do NOT use for explaining existing queries, product documentation questions, distributed tracing or span analysis (use dt-obs-tracing).

dt-obs-kubernetes

Kubernetes cluster, pod, node, and workload monitoring. Use when analyzing K8s health, resource optimization, pod failures, OOMKills, scheduling, or security posture. Also use for Kubernetes operational events like pod restarts, OOM events, evictions, and cluster event history. Trigger: "Kubernetes pods", "K8s cluster health", "OOMKill", "pod restarts", "container CPU", "namespace resource usage", "over-provisioned pods", "privileged containers", "pod placement", "K8s node capacity", "running containers by cluster", "workload scheduling", "pod evictions", "K8s labels and annotations", "kubernetes events", "pod restart events", "OOM events", "K8s event history". Do NOT use for explaining existing queries, product documentation questions, AWS-specific resource queries, service-level RED metrics, distributed tracing, or log analysis — use the relevant skill instead.

dt-obs-problems

DAVIS problem analysis including root cause identification, impact assessment, and correlation with other telemetry. Use when querying or investigating detected problems. Trigger: "active problems", "root cause analysis", "problem impact", "affected users", "list problems", "P-12345 details", "recurring problems", "problem history", "problem trending", "blast radius", "which entity caused the problem", "problems affecting Kubernetes", "problems by service". Do NOT use for explaining existing queries, product documentation questions, generic log searching, distributed tracing, or host-level resource monitoring.

dt-obs-hosts

Host and process metrics including CPU, memory, disk, network, containers, and process-level telemetry. Use when analyzing infrastructure health, resource utilization, process consumption, or host discovery. Also use when building timeseries queries for host metrics that feed into analytical workflows like anomaly detection, forecasting, or seasonality analysis. Trigger: "show hosts", "CPU usage", "memory utilization", "disk space", "high CPU", "host with most free disk", "top hosts by CPU", "top processes by memory", "Linux hosts in AWS", "what databases are running", "infrastructure costs by cost center", "hosts running EOL Java", "container monitoring", "listening ports", "process resource consumption", "CPU forecast", "memory anomaly", "host seasonality". Do NOT use for explaining existing queries, product documentation questions, Kubernetes pod/workload queries (use dt-obs-kubernetes), AWS cloud resource inventory (use dt-obs-aws), or service-level metrics (use dt-obs-services).

dt-obs-frontends

Real User Monitoring (RUM), Web Vitals, user sessions, mobile crashes, page performance, user interactions, and frontend errors. Query web and mobile frontend telemetry.

dt-dql-essentials

Core DQL syntax rules, common pitfalls, and query patterns. Load this skill when you need to write, build, or fix a DQL query — it prevents syntax errors and guides correct usage. Covers fetch commands, data models, field namespaces, time alignment, entity patterns, metric discovery, and smartscape topology navigation. Trigger: "write a DQL query", "build me a query", "DQL syntax", "how do I query logs/spans/metrics in Dynatrace", "create a timeseries", "fix my DQL", "fetch logs", "smartscapeNodes", "query optimization". Do NOT use for explaining an existing query or answering Dynatrace product questions — those do not require query-construction guidance.

dt-app-dashboards

Work with Dynatrace dashboards - create, modify, query, and analyze dashboard JSON including tiles, layouts, DQL queries, variables, and visualizations.

dt-migration

Migrate Dynatrace classic and Gen2 entity-based DQL to Smartscape equivalents. Covers three scenarios. (1) mass data queries filtered by classic entity conditions — migrate to direct dimension filters first, Smartscape only as fallback; (2) mass data queries using entity subqueries for filtering — same dimension-first strategy; (3) pure entity list queries — migrate fetch dt.entity.* to smartscapeNodes. Also handles entityName, entityAttr, classicEntitySelector, and classic relationship patterns.
