Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned datadog-labs/agent-skills at 9f3a8b065b.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

The dd-pup skill enables AI agents to discover and install Datadog skills, streamlining the integration of monitoring capabilities into agent workflows. It serves as a bridge for dynamically provisioning tools within the Datadog ecosystem without manual configuration.

When to use it

  • Automating the deployment of new monitoring agents across distributed infrastructure.
  • Updating existing skill libraries when Datadog releases new features or patches.
  • Provisioning specific diagnostic tools for troubleshooting complex cloud environments.
  • Standardizing agent configurations by ensuring all nodes have identical skill sets.

Key capabilities

  • Discovery of available skills within the Datadog registry.
  • Installation and management of agent extensions.
  • Integration with the datadog-labs/agent-skills repository.

Example prompts

  • "Install the latest dd-pup skill to enable automated log collection on my Kubernetes cluster."
  • "Discover all available monitoring skills compatible with Datadog Agent 7 and install the top three."
  • "Update the dd-pup configuration to include custom metrics for our database services."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your Datadog Agent version is compatible with the specific skill versions you intend to install, as mismatches can cause monitoring gaps. Always verify the source of skills before installation to maintain security and data integrity within your environment.
