SigNoz Docs

Use official signoz.io documentation and API references only. Ground every answer in fetched docs content and cite the canonical docs URL.

Access Docs

SigNoz docs support Accept: text/markdown. Fetch docs pages as markdown instead of scraping HTML.

Discover pages

Use the sitemap to search for candidate pages:

GET https://signoz.io/docs/sitemap.md

Fetch a page

Fetch any docs page as markdown by requesting it with:

GET https://signoz.io/docs/<path>/
Accept: text/markdown

For example, to fetch the logs overview page:

GET https://signoz.io/docs/logs-management/overview/
Accept: text/markdown

Workflow

1. Identify the domain from the user's question: instrumentation, OpenTelemetry setup, querying, dashboards, alerts, troubleshooting, deployment, or API docs.
2. Check the heuristics table below. If a heuristic matches, read that file before choosing docs pages.
3. Search sitemap.md for candidate pages that match the user's product area, environment, language, and task.
4. Rank the best 2-5 official pages by how directly they help the user complete the task.
5. Fetch only the top page(s) as markdown with Accept: text/markdown.
   • Fetch one page for narrow questions that map cleanly to a single setup guide, troubleshooting page, or API reference.
   • Fetch multiple pages when the task clearly spans multiple needs, such as collection-method selection plus a language guide, setup plus troubleshooting, or overview plus exact API/auth details.
   • Keep the fetch set small and purposeful. Do not fetch loosely related pages just because they share keywords.
6. Answer from the fetched docs and cite canonical https://signoz.io/docs/... URLs.
7. Handle ambiguity deliberately: if multiple pages are plausible, prefer the page that completes the task most directly and mention alternates only when they materially change the answer.

Ranking Hints

• Prefer setup, troubleshooting, or API-reference pages over overview pages when the user needs an action.
• Prefer pages that match the user's runtime, language, deployment environment, or SigNoz product area.
• For API questions, prefer the exact endpoint/auth/reference page over a general guide.
• Stay within official signoz.io docs pages when this skill applies.

Domain Heuristics

Read the matching heuristic file before fetching docs. Each file contains decision logic to route the user to the right guide.
