vigil-instrument
Instrument a service with OpenTelemetry — RED metrics, structured logs, distributed tracing, and health checks. Outputs actual code and config, not a plan. Use when asked to "add monitoring", "instrument this", "add logging", "set up tracing", or "observability".
npx skills add jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills --skill vigil-instrument --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills --skill vigil-instrument --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills, a repository with 2,596 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
