Stand up Grafana Tempo as a cost-efficient distributed-tracing backend that only needs object storage, and write TraceQL queries against it. Covers OTLP + Jaeger + Zipkin ingestion, the distributor → live-store → block-builder → object-storage write path, metrics-generator for RED spanmetrics + service graphs, Helm `tempo-distributed` deployment, multi-tenant `X-Scope-OrgID`, TraceQL span / resource / event scopes, structural operators (`>>`, `<<`), `rate()` + `quantile_over_time` metrics, and …

Install

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

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'tempo' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'tempo' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named tempo already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/stanfish06/skillquarium' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'f748ea91aa51ce8fc42c27c809dba73a8377b1d5' -- 'skills/tempo' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/tempo' ~/.agents/skills/'tempo' && 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/'tempo' ~/.claude/skills/'tempo' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
