Build custom OpenTelemetry Collector distributions with OCB (OpenTelemetry Collector Builder). Use when authoring or debugging a builder manifest (builder.yaml), choosing component and provider versions, building a collector that bundles a custom or out-of-distribution component, setting up CI or Docker builds of a distribution, or troubleshooting OCB build failures. Triggers on "ocb", "collector builder", "custom collector distribution", "builder manifest", "builder-config", and version-mismatch errors from OCB builds.

The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.
SKILL.md describes a workflow that reads a user-authored local `builder.yaml` manifest passed via `ocb --config=builder.yaml`, which is free text that OCB ingests to generate/compile a distribution.
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
The skill instructs users to fetch and run remote build tooling (e.g., "go install go.opentelemetry.io/collector/cmd/builder@v0.158.0" and pulling the Docker image "otel/opentelemetry-collector-builder:0.158.0" or the release page https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-releases/releases?q=cmd/builder), which will download and execute external code that the skill depends on.
