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-app 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 Apps

Use this skill when a developer is building a Datadog Apps project with TypeScript, React, published packages, and the normal production Datadog site. If the user is modifying Datadog platform packages or testing package source changes, use a platform-engineer-oriented workflow instead.

Overview

Datadog Apps are locally developed web apps built with React and TypeScript or JavaScript. Use Apps when a project needs source control, code review, CI/CD, multi-engineer collaboration, AI-assisted local development, custom UI or logic, or backend code that integrates with services beyond low-code App Builder. Apps share App Builder's permissions model and can be embedded in Datadog surfaces such as dashboards and the Internal Developer Portal.

Reference Routing

Read only the reference needed for the user's task:

User task Read
Create, scaffold, configure prerequisites, or run locally references/getting-started.md
Build, upload, publish, upload without publishing, add upload-no-publish script, configure Datadog site, or understand upload output references/build-upload-publish.md
Add or update GitHub Actions deployment references/cicd.md
Trigger or poll Workflow Automation from a backend function references/workflow-http-trigger.md
Get started querying data from a Datadog App references/querying-data/getting-started.md
Understand or configure Action Catalog connections references/querying-data/connections.md
Query Datadog App datastores with DDSQL references/querying-data/ddsql/datastores.md
Upgrade Datadog Apps dependencies or compare with a freshly scaffolded app references/upgrading.md
Diagnose OAuth, API/application key auth, upload, Node, site, or backend function failures references/troubleshooting.md

Boundaries

  • After scaffolding or when working inside an existing app, read the app project's AGENTS.md before making changes.
  • For backend function implementation details, rely on the generated app project's AGENTS.md; this skill only covers local development auth choices and troubleshooting.
  • Preserve the app project's existing package manager, scripts, Datadog site, and repository conventions.
  • Do not cover Datadog package/platform development in this skill.
  • Low-code App Builder to Datadog Apps migration guidance is future work. Do not invent a migration process yet.

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.
