loom-grafana

loom-grafana is a skill for Claude Code from cosmix/loom. It costs 17 tokens per session (6,379 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Grafana and LGTM stack guide for building monitoring dashboards and exploring logs and traces. The LGTM stack combines Grafana with Loki for logs, Tempo for distributed traces, and Mimir for long-term Prometheus data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create Grafana dashboards and panels, configure data sources and alerts, write LogQL and TraceQL queries, and add dashboard variables and templates.
Why use it?
It helps turn system telemetry into organized charts, searchable logs, trace views, alerts, and reusable dashboard filters. It also clarifies that PromQL rule design belongs to a separate Prometheus add-on.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill instructs the agent to omit warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Stripping safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.
    Fix: Remove instructions that suppress warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Let the agent surface safety-relevant caveats to the user.

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

loom-grafana 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 6d 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.

Grafana and the LGTM Stack

Visualization, dashboards, alerting, and exploration. Scope: dashboards/panels, LogQL, TraceQL, data sources, templating, Grafana alerting. PromQL query semantics → loom-prometheus.

Overview

Component Role Query lang
Loki Log aggregation; indexes labels only, not content LogQL
Grafana Visualization, dashboards, unified alerting, Explore
Tempo Distributed tracing; columnar Parquet, OTel-native TraceQL
Mimir Long-term, multi-tenant Prometheus storage (remote_write) PromQL

Collector: Grafana Alloy (OTel Collector distribution). Grafana Agent is EOL (2025-11-01) — migrate.

Dashboard Design

Hierarchy: Overview → Service → Component → Deep Dive. Signals: RED (Rate/Errors/Duration) for services, USE (Utilization/Saturation/Errors) for resources. Variable-driven, 24-column grid, < 15 panels/dashboard.

Panel types

Panel Best for
Time Series trends: rates, latency, resource usage (default; replaces removed Graph)
Stat single current value / sparkline
Gauge / Bar Gauge progress toward a limit / Top-N comparison
Table structured rows: service lists, error details
Heatmap distribution over time (latency buckets); renders native histograms
Pie proportions (use sparingly)
Logs / Traces Loki streams / Tempo trace view

Panel config

  • Titles include the unit + dimension ("P95 Latency (s) by Endpoint", not "Latency"); add a description tooltip.
  • Units: always set fieldConfig.defaults.unit (s, bytes, reqps, percentunit for 0–1 ratios, percent for 0–100). Wrong unit is the most common panel bug.
  • Legends: {{label}} templating; hide for single series; sort by value for Top-N.
  • Thresholds: green (normal) / yellow (warning) / red (critical); drive Stat/Gauge color and Time Series bands.
  • Data links: drill Overview→Service→Component; link to logs/traces/runbooks.

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.
