appinsights-instrumentation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from boshi-xixixi/TraeSkill. It costs 20 tokens per session (548 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for adding Azure Application Insights telemetry to web applications. Telemetry is collected information about an app’s health and activity.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for instrumenting supported ASP.NET Core or Node.js apps hosted in Azure, using automatic instrumentation where possible or adding it manually.
Why use it?
It helps determine what kind of application and hosting setup is present before choosing an appropriate instrumentation method.

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

appinsights-instrumentation 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/appinsights.ps1), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

AppInsights instrumentation

This skill enables sending telemetry data of a webapp to Azure App Insights for better observability of the app's health.

When to use this skill

Use this skill when the user wants to enable telemetry for their webapp.

Prerequisites

The app in the workspace must be one of these kinds

  • An ASP.NET Core app hosted in Azure
  • A Node.js app hosted in Azure

Guidelines

Collect context information

Find out the (programming language, application framework, hosting) tuple of the application the user is trying to add telemetry support in. This determines how the application can be instrumented. Read the source code to make an educated guess. Confirm with the user on anything you don't know. You must always ask the user where the application is hosted (e.g. on a personal computer, in an Azure App Service as code, in an Azure App Service as container, in an Azure Container App, etc.).

Prefer auto-instrument if possible

If the app is a C# ASP.NET Core app hosted in Azure App Service, use AUTO guide to help user auto-instrument the app.

Manually instrument

Manually instrument the app by creating the AppInsights resource and update the app's code.

Create AppInsights resource

Use one of the following options that fits the environment.

  • Add AppInsights to existing Bicep template. See examples/appinsights.bicep for what to add. This is the best option if there are existing Bicep template files in the workspace.
  • Use Azure CLI. See scripts/appinsights.ps1 for what Azure CLI command to execute to create the App Insights resource.

No matter which option you choose, recommend the user to create the App Insights resource in a meaningful resource group that makes managing resources easier. A good candidate will be the same resource group that contains the resources for the hosted app in Azure.

Modify application code
  • If the app is an ASP.NET Core app, see ASPNETCORE guide for how to modify the C# code.
  • If the app is a Node.js app, see NODEJS guide for how to modify the JavaScript/TypeScript code.
  • If the app is a Python app, see PYTHON guide for how to modify the Python code.

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.
