hermes-otel-backends

hermes-otel-backends is an Observability & incident response skill for AI agents, published by briancaffey in the hermes-otel repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates hermes-otel-backends D (55/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Spin up, query, and tear down a local OTLP backend (Phoenix, Grafana LGTM, OpenObserve, SigNoz, Jaeger, Tempo, Uptrace) for hermes-otel development and demos. Use when you need to SEE traces/metrics/logs in a real UI, stand up a backend for before/after validation, or debug "why don't I see my telemetry". Covers the docker-compose project-name trap, the port-conflict map, which backend supports which signal, the UI URLs + logins, and the query gotchas that bite everyone (Prometheus histogram _sum/_count, the 5-minute staleness window, OpenObserve PromQL, Phoenix GraphQL for spans).
