What problem does it solve?
Investigating APM traces in Datadog is time-consuming because raw trace responses are large, query syntax is non-intuitive, and single-trace lookups often require special sorting and time ranges to reveal root causes.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Translate natural language intent into Datadog APM query syntax and build environment, service, status, endpoint, duration, and HTTP filters.
- Support multiple modes: broad search of recent traces, direct trace ID or URL lookup with extended ranges, and code-driven query generation for endpoint-centric investigations.
- Reduce huge trace payloads into concise structured summaries (endpoint, status, duration, error type, Datadog link) using a parse-traces.js helper to keep results small and actionable.
- Use Case: Find slow 5xx requests for a production service, inspect the top spans for SQL queries, and provide direct Datadog links for drill-down.
Quick Start
Use the datadog:traces skill to find recent error traces for service my-app in the last hour and summarize the top results.
