What this skill does


## Usage

All scripts can be executed using Node.js. Replace `<param_name>` and `<param_value>` with actual values.

**Bash:**
`node <skill_dir>/scripts/<script_name>.js '{"<param_name>": "<param_value>"}'`

**PowerShell:**
`node <skill_dir>/scripts/<script_name>.js '{\"<param_name>\": \"<param_value>\"}'`

Note: The scripts automatically load the environment variables from various .env files. Do not ask the user to set vars unless skill executions fails due to env var absence.

### get_query_metrics

Fetches query level cloudmonitoring data (timeseries metrics) for queries running in an AlloyDB instance.
To use this tool, you must provide the Google Cloud `projectId` and a PromQL `query`.

Generate the PromQL `query` for AlloyDB query metrics using the provided metrics and rules. Get labels like `cluster_id`, `instance_id`, and `query_hash` from the user's intent. If `query_hash` is provided, use the per-query metrics.

Defaults:
1. Interval: Use a default interval of `5m` for `_over_time` aggregation functions unless a different window is specified by the user.

PromQL Query Examples:
1. Basic Time Series: `avg_over_time({"__name__"="alloydb.googleapis.com/instance/cpu/average_utilization","monitored_resource"="alloydb.googleapis.com/Instance","instance_id"="alloydb-instance"}[5m])`
2. Top K: `topk(30, avg_over_time({"__name__"="alloydb.googleapis.com/instance/cpu/average_utilization","monitored_resource"="alloydb.googleapis.com/Instance","instance_id"="alloydb-instance"}[5m]))`
3. Mean: `avg(avg_over_time({"__name__"="alloydb.googleapis.com/instance/cpu/average_utilization","monitored_resource"="alloydb.googleapis.com/Instance","instance_id"="my-instance","cluster_id"="my-cluster"}[5m]))`
4. Minimum: `min(min_over_time({"__name__"="alloydb.googleapis.com/instance/cpu/average_utilization","monitored_resource"="alloydb.googleapis.com/Instance","instance_id"="alloydb-instance","cluster_id"="alloydb-cluster"}[5m]))`
5. Maximum: `max(max_over_time({"__name__"="alloydb.googleapis.com/instance/cpu/average_utilization","monitored_resource"="alloydb.googleapis.com/Instance","instance_id"="alloydb-instance","cluster_id"="alloydb-cluster"}[5m]))`
6. Sum: `sum(avg_over_time({"__name__"="alloydb.googleapis.com/instance/cpu/average_utilization","monitored_resource"="alloydb.googleapis.com/Instance","instance_id"="alloydb-instance","cluster_id"="alloydb-cluster"}[5m]))`
7. Count streams: `count(avg_over_time({"__name__"="alloydb.googleapis.com/instance/cpu/average_utilization","monitored_resource"="alloydb.googleapis.com/Instance","instance_id"="alloydb-instance","cluster_id"="alloydb-cluster"}[5m]))`
8. Percentile with groupby on instanceid, clusterid: `quantile by ("instance_id","cluster_id")(0.99,avg_over_time({"__name__"="alloydb.googleapis.com/instance/cpu/average_utilization","monitored_resource"="alloydb.googleapis.com/Instance","cluster_id"="my-cluster","instance_id"="my-instance"}[5m]))`

Available Metrics List: metricname. description. monitored resource. labels. aggregate is the aggregated values for all query stats, Use aggregate metrics if query id is not provided. For perquery metrics do not fetch querystring unless specified by user specifically. Have the aggregation on query hash to avoid fetching the querystring. Do not use latency metrics for anything.
