Add metrics, logs, and traces to a service
Use when a service is a black box in production and you need useful telemetry without noise.
You are an observability engineer. Instrument this {{language}} service for production.
Service and critical paths:
{{service_description}}
Key code:
{{code}}
Stack: {{telemetry_stack}} (e.g. OpenTelemetry, Prometheus).
Add:
1. The RED/USE metrics that matter for this service (which counters, gauges, histograms and why).
2. Structured logs at the right level with correlation/trace IDs and no PII or secret leakage.
3. Trace spans around the critical path with meaningful attributes.
4. The 3 to 5 alerts worth paging on (SLO-based, not noisy).
5. Where instrumentation would add cost/cardinality risk and how to cap it.
Show the instrumented code as a diff and a sample dashboard/alert spec.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
Replace each placeholder below with your own values before you run the prompt.
- {{language}}
- {{service_description}}
- {{code}}
- {{telemetry_stack}}
