At a glance

Monitor, query, and manage New Relic observability data via the newrelic CLI.

  • User asks about application performance
  • SKILL.md covers Quick Decision Tree, Setup & Auth, Common One-Liners and Entity Reference, plus 3 more sections
  • Calls brew; reaches github.com; needs NEW_RELIC_API_KEY
  • Slow transactions

What it does

Newrelic CLI Skills is an agent skill from Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace. Monitor, query, and manage New Relic observability data via the newrelic CLI. Covers NRQL queries, APM performance triage, deployment markers, alert policy and condition management, notification channel setup, infrastructure monitoring, and agent diagnostics. Use when user asks about application performance, error rates, slow transactions, deployment tracking, alert configuration, or New Relic setup.

Its SKILL.md is about 900 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Monitoring and alerting. It works with New Relic. The repository describes itself as: Kilo Marketplace - A curated collection of Skills, MCP Servers, and Modes for enhancing AI agent capabilities across the Kilo ecosystem—including Kilo Code (VS Code extension)… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • User asks about application performance
  • Slow transactions
  • Deployment tracking
  • Alert configuration

Example prompts

  • “/newrelic-cli-skills”

Requirements

  • A credential in NEW_RELIC_API_KEY

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ff51758. 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:

    • brew

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • github.com

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • NEW_RELIC_API_KEY

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

Context cost

Newrelic CLI Skills loads about 901 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 106 tokens; SKILL.md has 157 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~106
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~901

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.

Quick Decision Tree

Performance issue reported? → apm/SKILL.md Need to query data with NRQL? → nrql/SKILL.md Recording a deployment? → deployments/SKILL.md Alert management? → alerts/SKILL.md Infrastructure/host issues? → infrastructure/SKILL.md Agent not reporting? → diagnostics/SKILL.md


Setup & Auth

bash
# Install (manual or package manager)
# macOS (Homebrew)
brew install newrelic-cli

# Or manually download a release archive from:
# https://github.com/newrelic/newrelic-cli/releases
# Extract it, place the `newrelic` binary on your PATH, then verify with:

  --apiKey $NEW_RELIC_API_KEY \
  --accountId $NEW_RELIC_ACCOUNT_ID \
  --region US   # or EU

newrelic profile default --profile default

# Verify
newrelic profile list

Common One-Liners

bash
# Search for an entity by name
newrelic entity search --name "my-app"

# Run a NRQL query
newrelic nrql query --accountId $NEW_RELIC_ACCOUNT_ID \
  --query "SELECT average(duration) FROM Transaction WHERE appName='my-app' SINCE 1 hour ago"

# Record a deployment
newrelic apm deployment create \
  --applicationId <APP_ID> \
  --revision "v1.2.3" \
  --description "Feature: user auth"

# Run diagnostics
newrelic diagnose run

Entity Reference

Find entity GUIDs (needed for API calls and deployment markers):

bash
# List all APM apps
newrelic entity search --name "" --type APPLICATION --domain APM

# Get specific entity details
newrelic entity get --guid <GUID>

# List all hosts
newrelic entity search --name "" --type HOST
