dd-trace-java

AI-assisted development toolkit for the Datadog Java tracing agent

Guides AI agents through building, testing, and reviewing code for the Datadog Java APM tracer. Automates writing new library instrumentations, migrating Groovy tests to JUnit 5, and reviewing pull requests for performance overhead and technical debt. Eliminates manual convention lookups and risky bytecode-instrumentation mistakes with step-by-step checklists and verification commands.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQPage Schema
How to install dd-trace-java skills?▼

Run `npx skills add DataDog/dd-trace-java --all -g -y` in your terminal to install all skills in this suite globally.

What is dd-trace-java used for?▼

It is Datadog's Java APM agent that automatically traces and profiles JVM applications at runtime. This skill suite helps AI agents contribute code to that project correctly.

How to add a new APM instrumentation with AI?▼

The apm-integrations skill walks your agent through the full process: writing the instrumenter module, advice class, decorator, tests, and muzzle directives, then verifying everything with Gradle.

Can AI migrate Groovy tests to Java?▼

Yes. The migrate-groovy-to-java skill converts Spock/Groovy tests into JUnit 5 Java tests, and the review-groovy-migration skill checks the result against project quality rules.

Does this work with Claude Code?▼

Yes. The skills follow the standard SKILL.md format and run in Claude Code and other compatible AI coding agents.
