otel-python

OpenTelemetry in Python — SDK setup, declarative config, zero-code instrumentation (opentelemetry-instrument, opentelemetry-distro), contrib auto-instrumentation, manual API, performance tuning, breaking changes. Use when configuring or troubleshooting OpenTelemetry in a Python service. Triggers on "setup otel in python", "python telemetry", "python tracing", "opentelemetry-instrument", "opentelemetry-distro", "TracerProvider python", "MeterProvider python", "FastAPI/Flask/Django otel", "python logging bridge".

Quality

Content

100%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

An exemplar router skill: a concise overview pointing to five well-signaled, one-level-deep references with concrete fetch commands for version-sensitive facts. It assumes Claude's competence and earns every token.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

A lean router/index that explains no concepts Claude already knows and spends every line on navigation or concrete fetch instructions, matching the lean-and-efficient anchor.

3 / 3

Actionability

Gives concrete, copy-paste-ready WebFetch commands with exact URLs and JSON paths (e.g. '.info.version') plus a Use-when table of reference links, fully executable rather than abstract.

3 / 3

Workflow Clarity

The single routing action ('Load a reference below based on the task') is unambiguous and supported by a Use-when selection table and a Sources-of-Truth fetch map; no destructive or batch operations require validation checkpoints.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

Clear overview with five verified, one-level-deep reference files each linked with a Use-when column, so content is appropriately split and navigation is easy rather than monolithic or nested.

Description

92%Weight 40%Scale 1-3

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong, third-person description that concisely enumerates concrete capabilities and pairs them with explicit, natural trigger phrases. The only weakness is mild overlap with sibling OpenTelemetry skills on declarative config and SDK versioning.

Suggestions

Disambiguate from the sibling otel-declarative-config skill by noting Python-specific activation (e.g. programmatic configure_sdk) rather than claiming the language-agnostic schema domain.

Clarify the boundary with otel-sdk-versions by scoping version guidance to Python package selection only.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete capabilities — 'SDK setup, declarative config, zero-code instrumentation ... contrib auto-instrumentation, manual API, performance tuning, breaking changes' — matching the multi-action anchor rather than the single-domain anchor below.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what (the listed capabilities) and when ('Use when configuring or troubleshooting OpenTelemetry in a Python service') with explicit triggers, so it is not capped at 2.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Provides natural phrases users would say — 'setup otel in python', 'python tracing', 'opentelemetry-instrument', 'FastAPI/Flask/Django otel', 'python logging bridge' — with broad coverage rather than just jargon.

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

The Python-specific triggers carve a clear niche, but 'declarative config' overlaps the sibling otel-declarative-config skill and adjacent otel-sdk-versions territory, so it could still overlap with similar skills.
