Overview
Generate a monitoring dashboard configuration for project metrics visualization.
Steps
- Determine the dashboard platform (Grafana, Datadog, custom HTML).
- Identify key metrics to display:
- Build health: CI pass rate, build duration trend.
- Code velocity: Commits per day, PRs merged per week.
- Quality: Test coverage trend, bug count, tech debt items.
- Performance: API response times, error rates, uptime.
- Dependencies: Outdated count, vulnerability count.
- Design panel layout:
- Top row: Key KPIs as single-stat panels.
- Middle: Time series charts for trends.
- Bottom: Tables for detailed breakdowns.
- Configure data sources and queries for each panel.
- Set up alert thresholds on critical metrics.
- Export the dashboard configuration as JSON.
Format
{
"title": " Dashboard",
"panels": [
{ "type": "stat", "title": "Build Status", "query": "..." },
{ "type": "graph", "title": "Response Time (P95)", "query": "..." }
]
}
Rules
- Keep dashboards focused with 8-12 panels maximum.
- Use consistent color coding: green=healthy, yellow=warning, red=critical.
- Include time range selector defaulting to last 24 hours.
- Add drill-down links from summary panels to detail views.
- Document the data source requirements for each panel.
