Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

By github/awesome-copilot (GitHub) · coding · 41,001 stars · scanned at commit 227949a

Downloads, exports, and inspects existing Arize traces and spans to understand what an LLM app is doing or debug runtime issues. Covers exporting traces by ID, spans by ID, sessions by ID, and root-cause investigation using the ax CLI. Use when the user wants to look at existing trace data, see what their LLM app is doing, export traces, download spans, investigate errors, or analyze behavior regressions.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'arize-trace' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'arize-trace' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named arize-trace already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/github/awesome-copilot' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '227949a7542a55d2155c00e7cdb998d9a0fee4f3' -- 'skills/arize-trace' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/arize-trace' ~/.agents/skills/'arize-trace' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'arize-trace' ~/.claude/skills/'arize-trace' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
