dd-pupDatadog CLI (pup). An agent skill from DataDog/pup.
Dd Pup is an agent skill from DataDog/pup, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Datadog CLI (pup). OAuth2 auth with token refresh.
Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k 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 OAuth and OpenID Connect. It works with Datadog. The repository describes itself as: Give your AI agent a Pup — a CLI companion with 200+ commands across 33+ Datadog products. The licence is Apache-2.0.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6a3c662. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
brewcargoFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
DD_API_KEYDD_APP_KEYFrom names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Dd Pup loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 14 tokens; SKILL.md has 233 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.
The full file from DataDog/pup at commit 6a3c662, republished under its Apache-2.0 licence (© DataDog). 233 words, ~2,247 tokens.

Datadog CLI (pup). An agent skill from DataDog/pup. Dd Pup is an agent skill from DataDog/pup, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Datadog CLI (pup).
Dd Pup fits situations like: tasks that involve OAuth and OpenID Connect.
Run `npx skills add DataDog/pup --skill dd-pup -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/dd-pup in DataDog/pup) into .claude/skills/dd-pup in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add DataDog/pup --skill dd-pup -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/dd-pup in DataDog/pup) into .agents/skills/dd-pup in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add DataDog/pup --skill dd-pup -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/dd-pup, .gemini/skills/dd-pup, .github/skills/dd-pup and .opencode/skills/dd-pup in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Dd Pup needs the command-line tools its instructions call (brew and cargo) and credentials named DD_API_KEY and DD_APP_KEY. Our summary lists: A credential in DD_API_KEY; A credential in DD_APP_KEY.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Dd Pup is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 9k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Dd Pup: Dd Pup (datadog-labs/agent-skills, 177 stars), Datadog App (datadog-labs/agent-skills, 177 stars), Follow PR (DataDog/datadog-agent, 3.8k stars) and Apm Integrations (DataDog/dd-trace-js, 836 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
DataDog (a GitHub organization, an official publisher) maintains it in DataDog/pup, which has 1,027 GitHub stars. The repository holds 12 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on October 7, 2026.
