A skill for Claude Code and Codex · Software and infrastructure
monitoring-expert is the skill that builds the smallest monitoring setup that actually covers your API's, SaaS's or site's real risk: uptime, errors tied back to the release that caused them, latency and saturation, database, queues, jobs, certificates and backups, with alerts that have an owner, a channel and a runbook. Risk decides the coverage, team size decides the shape, and nothing gets marked as monitored until the alert path has been tested end to end.

The problem
Monitoring thrown together in a hurry falls into one of two extremes: nothing but a ping on the domain, or a whole platform that generates noise, costs a fortune and nobody can maintain. Three symptoms, and what changes with the skill.
| Without the skill | With monitoring-expert |
|---|---|
| The client messages you on WhatsApp to say the system is down, because the only monitoring was the VPS dashboard showing low CPU. | An external healthcheck, errors traced back to the release that caused them, and signals for latency, traffic, errors and saturation, before any pretty dashboard. |
| An app with twenty users gets a full observability stack on the very same VPS as the product, so when the machine goes down, the monitoring goes down with it. | Risk defines the coverage and team capacity defines the shape: a solo team calls for a managed service and few moving parts, kept off the machine it's watching. |
| Fifty alerts a day in the same channel, no owner and no priority, until the one real alert slips by unnoticed in the noise. | Every alert has a sustained condition, severity, owner, channel, dedupe, cooldown and runbook, with email as the durable fallback channel when the urgent one fails. |
What you get out of it
A monitoring plan sized to the risk, implemented at the level you approve.
the system's risk level, with a confidence score, rationale, and the objective trigger to move up a tier
risk, signal, source, alert and channel, laid out line by line
components, retention, sampling, and what runs off the server
with runbook, recovery steps, and evidence of the end-to-end test
How it works
Stack, services, database, queues, jobs, integrations and whatever logging and metrics already exist, before suggesting a single tool.
Impact of downtime, data sensitivity, exposure, revenue, dependencies and recovery. User count alone never decides anything.
The tier, what's in, what's left out and why, with cost and retention estimates.
Stack-specific patterns with OpenTelemetry, separate error tracking, and collection kept off the machine being watched, no platform installed just because it's trendy.
Signal, collection, rule, notification and runbook validated end to end, with a backup channel for the critical alert.
Before you buy
No paid platform is required. When a managed service is worth it for your team's size, the skill explains why and what it costs.
Its limits
The skill covers uptime, errors, performance, infrastructure and alerting. Security prevention, like object-level authorization, pentesting and hardening, is work for security-checklist, also in the catalog.
It monitors the signal from a security control that already exists, like rate limiting, a WAF or webhook validation, but it doesn't design that control.
Personal data in logs and telemetry calls for retention and vendor decisions, and the LGPD (Brazil's data-protection law) side of that is covered by lgpd-baseline, also in the catalog.

Before you ask
Uptime, errors tied to the release that caused them, latency, traffic and saturation, the server, containers, database, Redis, queues, scheduled jobs, integrations, webhooks, certificates and backups, all with tested alerts.
It does, and that's where it saves you the most waste. A simple, low-impact app stays at a light coverage tier, while a financial app with the same twenty users moves up a tier because of its impact and its data.
Not necessarily. The tooling comes out of the risk assessment and your ability to operate it: a solo team usually calls for a managed service and few components, while a team with on-call coverage can run its own collection and retention.
It can send the most severe alerts over WhatsApp, once you approve it, always with email as the backup channel. The WhatsApp integration through the Evolution API is covered by evolution, also in the catalog.
Yes, the license covers your work for third parties. What's off limits is reselling or redistributing the skill.
