How to query OpenTelemetry metrics datasets in Honeycomb correctly. Metrics datasets follow different rules from trace/event datasets — many operations (bare COUNT, RATE_SUM, RATE_AVG, RATE_MAX, CONCURRENCY) are forbidden, temporal aggregation is automatic, and each metric has its own attributes. Use this skill when querying a metrics dataset (gauges, counters, histograms, sums), asking about temporal aggregation (RATE, INCREASE, SUMMARIZE, LAST), finding the metrics dataset or discovering metric names and attributes, debugging unexpected metrics query results, or querying infrastructure metrics like CPU, memory, disk I/O, or network stats. Do NOT use for instrumenting metrics (use otel-instrumentation), querying event datasets with "metrics" in their name, or conceptual questions (use observability-fundamentals).
metrics-queries is an agent skill entry in ChatHome Skills, sourced from GitHub Skill Search and scored 58/100. # Querying Metrics in Honeycomb Metrics datasets in Honeycomb behave differently from tracing/event datasets. Operations that work on traces may fail or produce. As an agent skill, it packages a reusable instruction set that AI coding agents such as Codex and Claude Code can load to perform this task without hand-written glue code. ChatHome Skills discovered this entry through its daily ingest of official registries and GitHub discovery queries, and re-verifies repository facts, freshness signals, and install metadata on every run. The quality score weighs official-registry presence, a working install command, license clarity, GitHub star trajectory, and repository freshness — the full formula is on the Sources page. The install command above is ready to copy. Review the last-pushed date and repository status before adding metrics-queries to a production agent workflow; the snapshot facts below are point-in-time values from the most recent ingest.
