Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00145 | $0.06321 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00072 | $0.03161 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00029 | $0.01264 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00015 | $0.00632 |
Grade A, and why
signoz-creating-alerts 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 11d 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 — 499 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Alert Create
Build a SigNoz alert from natural-language intent. Autonomous agents and interactive clients follow the same flow.
Prerequisites
This skill calls SigNoz MCP tools (signoz_create_alert,
signoz_list_alert_rules, signoz_get_field_keys, etc.). Confirm they are
available; otherwise run signoz-mcp-setup. Never fall back to raw HTTP or
fabricate alert configs.
When to use
Use this skill when the user wants to:
- Create, set up, or configure a new alert rule.
- Get paged or notified when a metric, log volume, latency, or error rate crosses a threshold.
- Detect anomalous behavior on a service, host, or signal.
- Catch silent data loss ("alert if data stops arriving from X").
Do NOT use when the user wants to:
- Understand what an existing alert monitors →
signoz-explaining-alerts. - Diagnose why an existing alert fired →
signoz-investigating-alerts. - Modify thresholds, queries, or routing on an existing alert → call
signoz_update_alertdirectly.
Required inputs (strict)
Alert creation writes to a shared system. Enforce this strict input contract; guesses create noisy alerts on the wrong service:
| Input | Required | Source if missing |
|---|---|---|
| Alert intent (NL goal) | yes | $ARGUMENTS or recent user turn |
Resource attribute filter (e.g. service.name, k8s.namespace.name, host.name) |
yes | discover via signoz_get_field_keys + signoz_get_field_values |
| Threshold value(s) | threshold / PromQL rules | derive a sensible default and surface in the preview; never substitute one for an absent-only request |
| Severity | inferred from intent | default warning; promote to critical only if user said "page", "wake up", "critical" |
| Notification routing | yes | direct: verified channel name(s); policy: confirmation that an existing org policy should route this rule |
If a required input is missing and undiscoverable, stop before any write and ask through the host's supported clarification UI.
What to include in the question:
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

signoz-creating-alerts is a skill published in the GitHub repository SigNoz/agent-skills (16 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 145 tokens to every session and 6,321 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
