SUMMARY

What it does

This skill provides a comprehensive guide to observability patterns for service meshes such as Istio and Linkerd. It covers the three pillars of observability (metrics, traces, logs), golden signals for mesh monitoring, best practices for sampling, alerting, and correlation, and references a detailed template library in references/details.md. The skill is intended for setting up distributed tracing, implementing metrics and dashboards, debugging latency and errors, defining SLOs, visualizing dependencies, and troubleshooting connectivity.
