Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill allows you to author and manage Prometheus monitoring dashboards. It can create new dashboards from templates or existing configurations, as well as modify existing ones based on your needs. The resulting dashboards provide visualizations of key metrics for improved system observability.
When to use it
- You need to create a custom Grafana dashboard to visualize application performance data.
- You want to automate the creation of new Prometheus dashboards for newly deployed services.
- Your team requires standardized monitoring dashboards across multiple environments.
- You're troubleshooting an issue and require a quick, customized view of relevant metrics.
Key capabilities
- Dashboard creation from templates
- Dashboard modification based on existing configurations
- Prometheus integration
- Grafana support
Example prompts
- "Create a Grafana dashboard for my database server using the standard template."
- "Modify the existing CPU utilization dashboard to include memory usage metrics."
- “Generate a Prometheus configuration file for monitoring network latency.”
Tips & gotchas
This skill requires familiarity with Prometheus and Grafana concepts. Ensure you have appropriate access permissions to your Prometheus and Grafana instances.
