dd-docs is an agent skill for Datadog documentation lookup via the llms.txt index.

About

The dd-docs skill locates Datadog documentation and product limits using the LLM-optimized index at docs.datadoghq.com/llms.txt. Agents fetch the index to browse products by use case, search topics with curl and grep patterns, and open Markdown sources by appending .md to documentation URLs. The workflow reduces hallucinated Datadog configuration by grounding answers in current official pages for agents, monitors, logs, APM, and security products. It is a read-only documentation lookup skill without mutating Datadog accounts or deploying agents.

  • Uses docs.datadoghq.com/llms.txt LLM-friendly documentation index.
  • Search topics then fetch Markdown by appending .md to URLs.
  • Covers agents, monitors, logs, APM, and security product docs.
  • Read-only lookup without mutating Datadog accounts.
  • Reduces hallucinated configuration guidance.

LLM-Friendly Documentation

Datadog provides an LLM-optimized documentation index at:

https://docs.datadoghq.com/llms.txt

This file contains:

  • Overview of all Datadog products organized by use case
  • Full list of documentation pages with URLs and descriptions
  • Direct links to Markdown sources (append .md to URLs)

How to Use llms.txt

1. Fetch the index to understand available documentation:

   curl -s https://docs.datadoghq.com/llms.txt | head -100

2. Search for specific topics:

Examples:

   curl -s https://docs.datadoghq.com/llms.txt | grep -i "monitors"
   curl -s https://docs.datadoghq.com/llms.txt | grep -i "apm"
   curl -s https://docs.datadoghq.com/llms.txt | grep -i "logs"

3. Fetch specific doc pages (add .md to most Datadog Docs URLs for raw content):

   curl -s https://docs.datadoghq.com/monitors.md
   curl -s https://docs.datadoghq.com/tracing.md
