What it does

Dashboard Builder is an agent skill from affaan-m/ECC. 为 Grafana、SigNoz 等平台构建能够回答实际运维人员问题的监控仪表板。适用于将指标转化为可用的仪表板,而非华而不实的展示板。

Its SKILL.md is about 280 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Monitoring and alerting. It works with Grafana. The repository describes itself as: The agent harness performance optimization system. Skills, instincts, memory, security, and research-first development for Claude Code, Codex, Opencode, Cursor and beyond. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Monitoring and alerting

Example prompts

  • “/dashboard-builder”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. 定义操作问题
  2. 研究目标平台架构
  3. 构建最小可用面板
  4. 剔除装饰性面板

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4eb71d9. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Dashboard Builder loads about 279 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 79 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~22
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~279

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

仪表盘构建器

当任务需要构建一个可供操作人员使用的仪表盘时使用此方案。

目标不是"展示所有指标",而是回答以下问题:

  • 系统健康吗?
  • 瓶颈在哪里?
  • 发生了什么变化?
  • 应该采取什么行动?

使用场景

  • "构建一个Kafka监控仪表盘"
  • "为Elasticsearch创建一个Grafana仪表盘"
  • "为这个服务制作一个SigNoz仪表盘"
  • "将这个指标列表转化为真正的运维仪表盘"

约束条件

  • 不要从视觉布局开始;要从操作人员的问题出发
  • 不要仅仅因为指标存在就包含所有可用指标
  • 不要在没有结构的情况下混合健康、吞吐量和资源面板
  • 不要发布没有标题、单位和合理阈值的面板

工作流程

1. 定义操作问题

围绕以下方面组织:

  • 健康/可用性
  • 延迟/性能
  • 吞吐量/容量
  • 饱和度/资源
  • 服务特定风险
2. 研究目标平台架构

首先检查现有仪表盘:

  • JSON结构
  • 查询语言
  • 变量
  • 阈值样式
  • 分区布局
3. 构建最小可用面板

推荐结构:

  1. 概览
  2. 性能
  3. 资源
  4. 服务特定分区
4. 剔除装饰性面板

每个面板都应回答一个真实问题。如果不能,则移除。

示例面板集

Elasticsearch
  • 集群健康
  • 分片分配
  • 搜索延迟
  • 索引速率
  • JVM堆/GC
Kafka
  • 代理数量
  • 副本不足的分区
  • 消息流入/流出
  • 消费者滞后
  • 磁盘和网络压力
API网关/入口
  • 请求速率
  • p50/p95/p99延迟
  • 错误率
  • 上游健康
  • 活跃连接数

质量检查清单

  • [ ] 有效的仪表盘JSON
  • [ ] 清晰的分区分组
  • [ ] 包含标题和单位
  • [ ] 阈值/状态颜色有意义
  • [ ] 存在常用过滤器的变量
  • [ ] 默认时间范围和刷新频率合理
  • [ ] 没有对操作人员无价值的装饰性面板
