[H1][OBSERVABILITY-STACK]
Dictum: Infrastructure generation follows canonical deploy.ts patterns.
Stack: Alloy -> Prometheus -> Grafana (metrics only). Logs/traces -> otelcol.exporter.debug (discarded).
Runtime: OTEL_LOGS_EXPORTER=none, OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER=none, OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER=otlp (deploy.ts:95-97).
Versions: Alloy 1.13.0 (OTel Collector v0.142.0), Prometheus 3.5.1+ (native histograms stable in 3.8+, flag no-op in 3.9+), Grafana 12.3.2.
| [INDEX] |
[USE_THIS_SKILL] |
[USE_OTHER_SKILL] |
| [1] |
Deploy observability via Pulumi. |
pulumi-k8s-generator: Non-observability K8s resources. |
| [2] |
OTEL collector configs (Alloy). |
k8s-debug: Debug deployed observability pods. |
| [3] |
Scrape/alert rules, dashboards. |
pulumi-k8s-validator: Audit existing infra code. |
| [4] |
Mode migration cloud<->selfhosted. |
promql-generator: PromQL query construction. |
Tasks:
- Read all three
references/ files before generating.
- Gather: mode (cloud/selfhosted), retention, HA, TLS via AskUserQuestion (ambiguous only).
- Generate Pulumi TypeScript resources following
deploy.ts patterns.
- Validate:
pnpm exec nx run infrastructure:typecheck then pulumi preview --diff.

Production, multi-node, HA. |
| [2] |
selfhosted |
Docker containers. |
178-194 |
Dev, single-node, staging. |
Cloud (deploy.ts:147-154):
- Alloy: ConfigMap + DaemonSet + Service (3 ports: grpc:4317, http:4318, metrics:12345). Resources:
200m/256Mi limits, 100m/128Mi requests.
_k8sObserve array: prometheus (cmd flags, 9090, PVC) + grafana (datasource provisioning, 3000, PVC).
Selfhosted (deploy.ts:187-189):
- 3
docker.Container resources with uploads (config) + named volumes via _Ops.dockerVol.
- Grafana:
GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD from _Ops.secret(). Shared network via _Ops.dockerNets(networkId).
All resources: Pulumi TypeScript. Never raw YAML, Helm, or docker-compose.
