Datadog Skill
Query Datadog observability data via the API. Read-only access to logs, metrics, monitors, dashboards, hosts, APM, and incidents.
When to Use
- Investigating production issues or outages
- Checking monitor status and alert history
- Searching logs for errors or patterns
- Reviewing APM traces and service maps
- Pulling metric data for dashboards
- Checking host infrastructure status
Prerequisites
# Required environment variables
export DD_API_KEY="your-api-key"
export DD_APP_KEY="your-application-key"
export DD_SITE="datadoghq.com" # or datadoghq.eu, us3.datadoghq.com, etc.
Usage
The bundled script provides a CLI interface to Datadog API endpoints:
# Search logs
npx tsx scripts/datadog.ts logs search --query "service:api error" --from 1h
# Get metrics
npx tsx scripts/datadog.ts metrics query --metric "system.cpu.user" --from 1h
# List monitors
npx tsx scripts/datadog.ts monitors list
# Get dashboard
npx tsx scripts/datadog.ts dashboards get --id abc-123
# List hosts
npx tsx scripts/datadog.ts hosts list
# APM traces
npx tsx scripts/datadog.ts traces list --service api --from 1h
Common Patterns
Incident Investigation
# 1. Check for firing monitors
npx tsx scripts/datadog.ts monitors list --status alert
# 2. Search error logs
npx tsx scripts/datadog.ts logs search --query "status:error" --from 30m
# 3. Check APM for slow traces
npx tsx scripts/datadog.ts traces list --service api --from 30m
Log Search Syntax
# By service
service:api-service
# By status
status:error OR status:warn
# By time range
@timestamp:[now-1h TO now]
# Combined
service:api-service status:error "timeout"
Metric Queries
# Simple metric
avg:system.cpu.user{host:my-host}
# By tag
avg:system.cpu.user{env:production}
# Rate
diff(avg:system.cpu.user{host:my-host})
Notes
- All operations are read-only — no write or modify operations
- API and application keys need appropriate scopes
- Respect rate limits on high-volume queries
- Use
--fromto limit time ranges (default: 1h)

Skill source recorded
Skill instructions are recorded. This is not a runtime test, safety guarantee or compatibility certification.
Review before install: Avoid automatic install
License: MIT
- Dependency or permission surface needs review
- Permission surface may require sandboxing
- Scripts directory package.json declares license ISC while SKILL.md declares MIT; minor inconsistency.
- Unused dependencies (@anthropic-ai/sdk, @modelcontextprotocol/sdk) in scripts/package.json add bloat without being referenced by the Datadog script.
- Low GitHub adoption signal
- Quality score needs review
- Permission surface needs review: secrets or environment access, shell or command execution
- GitHub adoption: 14 GitHub stars
- Stars/forks activity: 14 stars, 1 forks; issue activity unavailable in current metadata
- Dependency/runtime risk: command execution surface, credential or environment access
- Permission surface: secrets or environment access, shell or command execution
Listed tools are metadata hints, not tested compatibility. Agent prompts are suggested handoffs.
Start with one small task
- 1Read the source. Confirm the input, expected output, dependencies and permissions.
- 2Ask your agent for a plan. Approve setup and any costs before running a small isolated test.
- 3Check the output and changed files. Report only what actually ran; keep the source revision for reproduction.
Check the source for dependencies, API keys and third-party costs. A public repository does not mean every service is free.

Agent access
This page exposes the same decision, trust, audit, use-case, and install signals through the Registry API, so agents can rank this skill without scraping the UI.
