At a glance

Guides Qdrant monitoring setup including Prometheus scraping, health probes, Hybrid Cloud metrics, alerting, and log centralization.

  • Someone asks how to set up monitoring
  • SKILL.md covers Prometheus Metrics, Hybrid Cloud Scraping, Liveness and Readiness Probes and Alerting, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Prometheus config

What it does

Qdrant Monitoring Setup is an agent skill from qdrant/skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Guides Qdrant monitoring setup including Prometheus scraping, health probes, Hybrid Cloud metrics, alerting, and log centralization. Use when someone asks 'how to set up monitoring', 'Prometheus config', 'Grafana dashboard', 'health check endpoints', 'how to scrape Hybrid Cloud', 'what alerts to set', 'how to centralize logs', or 'audit logging'.

Its SKILL.md is about 870 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 Vector databases, Monitoring and alerting and Web scraping. It works with Qdrant, Prometheus, Grafana and Kubernetes. The repository describes itself as: Agent skills for Qdrant vector search: scaling, performance optimization, search quality, monitoring, deployment, model migration, version upgrades, and SDK usage across Python…. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Someone asks how to set up monitoring
  • Prometheus config
  • Grafana dashboard
  • Health check endpoints

Example prompts

  • “how to set up monitoring”
  • “Prometheus config”
  • “Grafana dashboard”
  • “/qdrant-monitoring-setup”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 57658ea. 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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • skills.qdrant.tech
    • github.com

    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

Qdrant Monitoring Setup loads about 874 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 341 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~93
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~874

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.

How to Set Up Qdrant Monitoring

Get Prometheus scraping working first, then health probes, then alerting. Do not skip monitoring setup before going to production.

Prometheus Metrics

Use when: setting up metric collection for the first time or adding a new deployment.

  • Node metrics at /metrics endpoint Monitoring docs
  • Cluster metrics at /sys_metrics (Qdrant Cloud only)
  • Prefix customization via service.metrics_prefix config or QDRANT__SERVICE__METRICS_PREFIX env var
  • Example self-hosted setup with Prometheus + Grafana prometheus-monitoring repo

Hybrid Cloud Scraping

Use when: running Qdrant Hybrid Cloud and need cluster-level visibility.

Do not just scrape Qdrant nodes. In Hybrid Cloud, you manage the Kubernetes data plane. You must also scrape the cluster-exporter and operator pods for full cluster visibility and operator state.

Liveness and Readiness Probes

Use when: configuring Kubernetes health checks.

Alerting

Use when: setting up alerts for production or Hybrid Cloud deployments.

  • Qdrant Cloud provides pre-configured email alerts for 11 cluster issues. Use scraped metrics when you need custom alerts or routing to other targets. See Cloud cluster monitoring
  • Use AlertmanagerConfig to route alerts to Slack, PagerDuty, or other targets based on labels
  • At minimum, alert on: optimizer errors, node not ready, replication factor below target, disk usage >80%

Log Centralization and Audit Logging

Use when: enterprise compliance requires centralized logs or audit trails.

  • Enable JSON log format for structured analysis: set logger.format to json in config Configuration
  • Use FluentD/OpenSearch for log aggregation
  • Audit logs (v1.17+) write to local filesystem (/qdrant/storage/audit/), not stdout. Mount a Persistent Volume and deploy a sidecar container to tail these files to stdout so DaemonSets can pick them up. Audit logging

What NOT to Do

  • Scrape /sys_metrics on self-hosted (only available on Qdrant Cloud)
  • Scrape only Qdrant nodes in Hybrid Cloud (miss cluster-exporter and operator metrics)
  • Skip monitoring setup before going to production (you will regret it)
  • Alert on page cache memory usage (it's supposed to fill available RAM, normal OS behavior)
