macro: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/instrumentation/SKILL.md

instrumentation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from macro-inc/macro. It costs 75 tokens per session (1,350 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

An OpenTelemetry tracing helper for adding or repairing traces in application flows. Tracing records how a request moves through code and services so its timing and path can be inspected.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding spans, span details, or trace propagation to frontend or backend code, especially on latency-sensitive paths.
Why use it?
It helps show where a request is slow, disconnected, or missing from monitoring tools. This is useful for user actions, service calls, queues, and background work.

Which agent this was written for is unclear — body not stored (licence); the path alone says nothing. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is macro-inc/macro's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on macro itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything macro configures →

About the project

Macro is a shared workspace that brings email, chat, documents, tasks, AI agents, calls, and customer relationship management into one connected system. It is for teams that want work information and cross-references in a single searchable environment. The catalogue entries provide skills, instructions, MCP integrations, commands, settings, and an agent for working with Macro.

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

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 5d 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.

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.
