What it does
Spring Boot Observability is an agent skill from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. Instrument Spring Boot with Micrometer metrics, distributed tracing, and structured logging. Use when adding Micrometer metrics, distributed tracing, or structured logging to Spring Boot.
Its SKILL.md is about 500 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/evals.json` and `references/implementation.md`).
It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Observability and Backend development. It works with Spring Boot and OpenTelemetry. The repository describes itself as: A collection of Agent Skills Standard and Best Practice for Programming Languages, Frameworks that help our AI Agent follow best practies on frameworks and programming laguages. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Adding Micrometer metrics
- Distributed tracing
- Structured logging to Spring Boot
Example prompts
- “/spring-boot-observability”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Add tracing and metrics dependencies to pom.xml
- Configure application.yaml for tracing, actuator, and log correlation
- Add structured logging with MDC context
- Verify with curl localhost:8080/actuator/prometheus and check trace IDs in logs
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b529c2d. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
curl
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use curl, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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
Spring Boot Observability loads about 501 tokens when it runs, and up to ~988 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 170 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.
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.

Spring Boot Observability
Priority: P0 (CRITICAL)
Implementation Workflow
- Add tracing and metrics dependencies to
pom.xml - Configure
application.yamlfor tracing, actuator, and log correlation - Add structured logging with MDC context
- Verify with
curl localhost:8080/actuator/prometheusand check trace IDs in logs
Enable Distributed Tracing
- Correlation IDs: Enable trace/span ID injection.
- Propagation: Propagate context across threads (
@Async) and clients. - OpenTelemetry: Use OTel bridge (
micrometer-tracing-bridge-otel).
See implementation examples for application.yaml tracing configuration and actuator exposure.
Configure Structured Logging
- Format: Use JSON logging (
logstash-logback-encoder) in production. - MDC: Use MDC for contextual info (userId, tenantId). Always clear MDC in finally block.
- Output: Log to stdout only. Let container handle shipping.
See implementation examples for structured logging with MDC context and Logstash encoder.
Secure Actuator Endpoints
- Security: Secure
/actuator/**with Admin role. - Probes: Enable K8s Liveness/Readiness probes.
- Verify: Run
curl localhost:8080/actuator/prometheusto confirm metrics exposed.
Anti-Patterns
- No System.out: Use @Slf4j for all structured logging.
- No open Actuator: Secure /actuator/** with Admin role.
- No DIY tracing: Use Micrometer with OTel bridge.
