metrics-queries

How to query OpenTelemetry metrics datasets in Honeycomb correctly. Metrics datasets follow different rules from trace/event datasets — many operations (bare COUNT, RATE_SUM, RATE_AVG, RATE_MAX, CONCURRENCY) are forbidden, temporal aggregation is automatic, and each metric has its own attributes. Use this skill when querying a metrics dataset (gauges, counters, histograms, sums), asking about temporal aggregation (RATE, INCREASE, SUMMARIZE, LAST), finding the metrics dataset or discovering metric names and attributes, debugging unexpected metrics query results, or querying infrastructure metrics like CPU, memory, disk I/O, or network stats. Do NOT use for instrumenting metrics (use otel-instrumentation), querying event datasets with "metrics" in their name, or conceptual questions (use observability-fundamentals).
