README (SKILL.md)

Grafana

Work with Grafana from chat - inspect dashboards, folders, data sources, alerts, teams, and observability resources.

Powered by ClawLink, an integration hub for OpenClaw that handles hosted connection flows and credentials so you don't need to configure Grafana API access yourself.

Quick start

  1. Install the verified ClawLink plugin: openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin
  2. Start a fresh OpenClaw chat if the plugin was just installed and ClawLink tools are not visible yet
  3. If ClawLink is not configured, call clawlink_begin_pairing
  4. Tell the user to open the returned pairing URL, sign in to ClawLink if needed, and approve the device
  5. After the user confirms approval, call clawlink_get_pairing_status
  6. Tell the user to connect Grafana at claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=grafana
  7. When the user confirms Grafana is connected, call clawlink_list_integrations and then clawlink_list_tools with the grafana integration slug

Setup details

Installing the plugin

If the ClawLink plugin is not installed yet, tell the user to run:

openclaw plugins install clawhub:clawlink-plugin

If the current chat started before the plugin was installed and ClawLink tools are still unavailable, tell the user to start a fresh chat so OpenClaw reloads the plugin tool catalog.

Pairing ClawLink

If ClawLink reports that the plugin is not configured, the plugin has not been paired with the user's ClawLink account yet.

  1. Call clawlink_begin_pairing.
  2. Tell the user to open the returned pairing URL in their browser.
  3. The user signs in to ClawLink if needed and approves the OpenClaw device.
  4. After the user confirms approval, call clawlink_get_pairing_status to finish local setup.

The resulting device credential is stored locally in OpenClaw's plugin config and is only sent to claw-link.dev. The user should not paste raw credentials into chat.

Connecting Grafana

Tell the user to open https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=grafana and connect Grafana there. The page opens the add-connection panel filtered to Grafana. ClawLink's hosted page runs the provider connection flow. When they confirm it is done, call clawlink_list_integrations to verify, then call clawlink_list_tools with integration grafana.

Using Grafana tools

ClawLink provides tools dynamically based on what the user has connected. You do not need to know tool names or schemas in advance.

Discovery

  1. Call clawlink_list_integrations to confirm Grafana is connected.
  2. Call clawlink_list_tools with integration grafana.
  3. Treat the returned list as the source of truth. Do not guess or assume what tools exist.
  4. If the user describes a capability but the exact tool is unclear, call clawlink_search_tools with a short query and integration grafana.
  5. If no Grafana tools appear, direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=grafana.

Execution

  1. Call clawlink_describe_tool before using an unfamiliar tool, before any write, or when the request is ambiguous.
  2. Use the returned schema, whenToUse, askBefore, safeDefaults, examples, and followups.
  3. Prefer read, list, search, and get operations before writes.
  4. For writes or anything marked as requiring confirmation, call clawlink_preview_tool first, then confirm with the user.
  5. Execute with clawlink_call_tool.
  6. If it fails, report the real error. Do not invent results or restate the failure as a missing capability unless the live catalog supports that conclusion.

What you can do

Typical Grafana tasks (actual availability depends on the user's connected account, permissions, scopes, and current ClawLink tool catalog):

  • List dashboards, folders, and data sources
  • Inspect dashboard and panel metadata
  • Query or review alert rules when available
  • Create or update dashboards after confirmation
  • Manage teams or folders when supported

Rules

  • Always use ClawLink tools for Grafana. Do not ask the user for separate Grafana credentials.
  • Do not claim a capability is missing without checking the live ClawLink catalog in the current turn.
  • Do not invent slash commands or ask the user to paste raw credentials.
  • Ask for confirmation before destructive, external-facing, or bulk write actions.
  • If Grafana is not connected, direct the user to https://claw-link.dev/dashboard?add=grafana.
  • Never echo or repeat the user's ClawLink credential.

Resources

Usage Guidance
Before installing, confirm that you trust ClawLink and the ClawLink plugin, review the Grafana permissions you grant, and approve write actions only after checking the preview. The supplied artifact does not show hidden code, exfiltration, or destructive behavior.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: grafana-monitoring Version: 0.1.0 The skill bundle provides instructions for an AI agent to interact with Grafana using the ClawLink integration service (claw-link.dev). It relies on an external plugin for execution and includes explicit safety guidelines, such as requiring user confirmation for destructive actions and prohibiting the disclosure of credentials. No evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or unauthorized execution was found in the SKILL.md or metadata.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill is coherent for Grafana inspection and administration. Although the public description emphasizes inspection, SKILL.md also discloses possible create/update/manage actions and requires confirmation for writes.
Instruction Scope
Instructions route Grafana activity through ClawLink's live tool catalog and tell the agent to describe, preview, and confirm write-capable or ambiguous tools. Actual available operations depend on the user's connected Grafana account and ClawLink catalog.
Install Mechanism
The registry has no install spec and no code files, but SKILL.md asks the user to install a separate ClawLink plugin. This is user-directed and purpose-aligned, but the plugin itself is outside this artifact review.
Credentials
The skill uses claw-link.dev for pairing, hosted connection flows, and dynamic tools. That is proportionate for a hosted connector, but it means Grafana setup and operations depend on an external service.
Persistence & Privilege
SKILL.md states that a ClawLink device credential is stored locally in OpenClaw plugin config and sent to claw-link.dev. This is expected for pairing, but it is still delegated account access.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install grafana-monitoring
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /grafana-monitoring
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
