SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the repetitive, inconsistent work of manually building Grafana dashboards for every new project, ensuring all engineering teams have uniform access to standard operational metrics from the moment a service is scaffolded.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pre-built Default Dashboard: Emits the company-standard Grafana dashboard JSON pre-configured for the universal internal metric set.
  • Seamless Project Integration: Automatically places the generated dashboard file in the correct ops/grafana/ directory alongside the project's docker-compose-dev configuration for immediate use.
  • Use Case: When scaffolding a new microservice via the DevEnv Agent, this Skill automatically provisions the standard monitoring dashboard so the team can track service health and performance without building a custom dashboard from scratch.

Quick Start

Use the grafana-default-dashboard skill to generate and deploy the default monitoring dashboard for your new orders-platform project.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a default Grafana dashboard for a new microservice?

To generate a default Grafana dashboard, you can use a scaffolding skill that emits the company-standard Grafana dashboard JSON pre-configured for the universal internal metric set. This eliminates manual dashboard configuration for new projects by automatically placing the dashboard file in the ops/grafana/ directory.

How can I automate Grafana dashboard provisioning for a new project?

You can automate Grafana dashboard provisioning by using a skill that automatically generates and deploys the standard monitoring dashboard when a new project is scaffolded via the DevEnv Agent. The dashboard file is placed in the ops/grafana/ directory alongside the docker-compose-dev configuration for immediate use.

What is the best way to standardize operational monitoring dashboards across multiple services?

The best way to standardize operational monitoring is to generate a company-default Grafana dashboard JSON for the standard internal metric set. This ensures all engineering teams have uniform access to standard operational metrics from the moment a service is scaffolded.

Does this dashboard scaffolding approach work with docker-compose-dev configurations?

Yes, the dashboard scaffolding approach works directly with docker-compose-dev configurations. The generated Grafana dashboard file is automatically placed in the ops/grafana/ directory alongside the project's docker-compose-dev configuration for immediate integration.

Can I customize the default Grafana dashboard metrics for my specific team?

The generated dashboard comes pre-configured for the universal internal metric set to satisfy v1.1 Project Spec requirements for consistent out-of-the-box operational monitoring. The metadata does not specify options for customizing the default metrics.

Why do I need to place Grafana dashboard files in the ops/grafana/ directory?

You need to place Grafana dashboard files in the ops/grafana/ directory to satisfy the v1.1 Project Spec requirements for consistent operational monitoring. This automatic placement alongside docker-compose-dev configurations ensures immediate tracking of service health and performance.
