SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill enables consistent observability workflows by leveraging New Relic MCP to monitor applications, investigate performance issues, and analyze infrastructure and incident data.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • APM & performance monitoring: Access application performance metrics, response times, throughput, and error rates.
  • Error tracking & incident analysis: Identify root causes, correlate errors with transactions, and triage incidents.
  • Infrastructure & logs insight: Monitor host resources, logs, traces, and service dependencies across environments.

Quick Start

Query New Relic MCP for an application named MyApp over the last 24 hours and report the average duration, error rate, and top slow transactions.

FAQPage Schema
How do I query New Relic APM application metrics using MCP?

You can query New Relic APM metrics by executing NRQL-based queries through the New Relic MCP interface to retrieve application response times, throughput, and error rates for performance monitoring.

Can I investigate incidents and root causes with New Relic MCP?

Yes, New Relic MCP supports incident analysis by identifying root causes, correlating errors with specific transactions, and triaging incidents across services and accounts.

What do I need to configure before monitoring infrastructure with New Relic MCP?

You need a configured NEW_RELIC_API_KEY and active MCP connectivity to start monitoring infrastructure, with an optional NEW_RELIC_ACCOUNT_ID for multi-account querying.

How do I analyze application error rates and slow transactions in New Relic?

You can analyze error rates and slow transactions by running NRQL queries via New Relic MCP to fetch application performance data over a specific time window like the last 24 hours.

Does New Relic MCP support capacity planning and host resource monitoring?

Yes, New Relic MCP enables capacity planning and infrastructure monitoring by querying host resources, logs, traces, and service dependencies across your environments.

When should I use NRQL queries instead of direct API calls for observability?

Use NRQL queries through New Relic MCP for consistent observability workflows when you need to aggregate performance metrics, analyze traces, or investigate incidents across multiple services.
