datadog-apm

datadog-apm is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from automateyournetwork/netclaw. It costs 19 tokens per session (593 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A set of tools for investigating service performance and errors using Datadog APM, a system that records requests across distributed services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to search traces, inspect individual request timelines, list monitored services, and view service health summaries.
Why use it?
It helps locate slow operations, failed requests, and bottleneck parts of a service without manually piecing together separate logs.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

datadog-apm scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Datadog APM Skill

Analyze distributed traces and service performance in Datadog APM.

Tools

Tool Description
search_traces Search traces with query syntax and filters
get_trace_details Get detailed span information for a trace
list_services List all instrumented services
get_service_summary Get service health and performance summary

Example Queries

Search for slow traces in the network service
→ search_traces(query="service:network-api @duration:>1s", time_range="1h")

Find error traces
→ search_traces(query="status:error", time_range="30m")

Get details of a specific trace
→ get_trace_details(trace_id="abc123def456")

List all services
→ list_services()

Get service performance summary
→ get_service_summary(service_name="network-api")

Workflows

Latency Analysis

  1. Search slow traces: search_traces(query="@duration:>500ms")
  2. Identify common patterns (resource, operation)
  3. Drill into trace waterfall: get_trace_details(trace_id="...")
  4. Find bottleneck spans
  5. Compare with baseline performance

Error Investigation

  1. Search error traces: search_traces(query="status:error service:network")
  2. Group by error type and root cause
  3. Review span-level errors in trace details
  4. Correlate with recent deployments or changes

Service Health Review

  1. List all services: list_services()
  2. Get summary for critical services: get_service_summary(service_name="...")
  3. Check error rate, latency percentiles, throughput
  4. Identify degraded or unhealthy services
  5. Review service dependencies map

Root Cause Analysis

  1. Start from incident or alert
  2. Find related traces: search_traces(query="trace_id:abc123")
  3. Walk span tree to identify failure point
  4. Check upstream/downstream service health
  5. Correlate with infrastructure metrics

Prerequisites

  • DD_API_KEY Datadog API key
  • DD_APP_KEY Datadog application key
  • DD_SITE Datadog site (optional, defaults to datadoghq.com)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
