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

grafana-docs 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 107 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Grafana questions are easy to answer from stale memory or product-specific assumptions across the large Grafana Labs docs tree. Use this skill to ground answers in the official Grafana Labs documentation and return the closest authoritative page instead of generic observability UI advice.

When to Use

Use this skill when the request is about:

  • Grafana OSS, Grafana Enterprise, and Grafana Cloud
  • Dashboards, panels, visualizations, and Explore
  • Data sources, queries, transformations, and variables
  • Alerting, contact points, notification policies, and IRM
  • Metrics with Mimir and Prometheus-compatible workflows
  • Logs with Loki and log query languages
  • Traces with Tempo and distributed tracing visualization
  • Profiles with Pyroscope and continuous profiling
  • Grafana Alloy, Beyla, and telemetry collection agents
  • k6 performance testing and synthetic monitoring
  • Account management, upgrades, and administration

Do not use this skill for:

  • OpenTelemetry SDK instrumentation details without Grafana-specific collection context. Use opentelemetry-docs instead.
  • Core Kubernetes API resources or kubectl usage. Use kubernetes-docs instead.
  • Raw Prometheus server docs when the question is only about Prometheus scrape config with no Grafana product involvement.
  • Third-party plugin behavior unless documented on grafana.com or the plugin catalog.

Workflow

1. Classify the request

Decide which bucket the question belongs to before searching:

  • Grafana core: setup, dashboards, panels, and Explore
  • Data sources and query patterns
  • Alerting, IRM, and SLOs
  • Metrics stack: Mimir and Prometheus integrations
  • Logs stack: Loki
  • Traces stack: Tempo
  • Profiles stack: Pyroscope
  • Collection agents: Alloy and Beyla
  • Grafana Cloud onboarding and account management
  • Performance testing: k6

If you need a quick starting point, load references/topic-map.md and jump to the closest section. For broader discovery, curated indexes are at https://grafana.com/llms.txt and https://grafana.com/llms-full.txt.

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.
