TraceKit APM Setup

This is the entry point skill for TraceKit APM. It detects the user's technology stack and routes to the appropriate SDK-specific skill for detailed setup instructions.

When To Use

Use this skill when the user asks to:

• Add TraceKit to their project (without specifying a language/framework)
• Set up APM, observability, or error tracking (general request)
• Get started with TraceKit
• Choose the right TraceKit SDK for their project

Detection

Scan the project to determine the technology stack:

1. Check for package.json -- Node.js/JavaScript ecosystem
   • next in dependencies => Use tracekit-nextjs-sdk skill
   • nuxt in dependencies => Use tracekit-nuxt-sdk skill
   • @angular/core in dependencies => Use tracekit-angular-sdk skill
   • react in dependencies (without next) => Use tracekit-react-sdk skill
   • vue in dependencies (without nuxt) => Use tracekit-vue-sdk skill
   • express, fastify, or @nestjs/core => Use tracekit-node-sdk skill
   • None of the above => Use tracekit-browser-sdk skill (vanilla JS/TS)
2. Check for go.mod -- Use tracekit-go-sdk skill
3. Check for requirements.txt or pyproject.toml -- Use tracekit-python-sdk skill
4. Check for composer.json -- PHP ecosystem
   • laravel/framework in require => Use tracekit-laravel-sdk skill
   • Otherwise => Use tracekit-php-sdk skill
5. Check for pom.xml or build.gradle -- Use tracekit-java-sdk skill
6. Check for *.csproj or *.sln -- Use tracekit-dotnet-sdk skill
7. Check for Gemfile -- Use tracekit-ruby-sdk skill

Next Steps

After detecting the stack, route to the appropriate skill:

Backend SDKs

• Node.js -- tracekit-node-sdk skill (Express, Fastify, NestJS)
• Python -- tracekit-python-sdk skill (Django, Flask, FastAPI)
• PHP -- tracekit-php-sdk skill
• Laravel -- tracekit-laravel-sdk skill
• Java -- tracekit-java-sdk skill (Spring Boot, Micronaut)
• .NET -- tracekit-dotnet-sdk skill (ASP.NET Core)
• Ruby -- tracekit-ruby-sdk skill (Rails, Sinatra)

Frontend SDKs

• Browser (vanilla JS/TS) -- tracekit-browser-sdk skill
• React -- tracekit-react-sdk skill (ErrorBoundary, React Router breadcrumbs)
• Vue -- tracekit-vue-sdk skill (Vue plugin, Vue Router breadcrumbs)
• Angular -- tracekit-angular-sdk skill (NgModule/standalone, DI ErrorHandler)
• Next.js -- tracekit-nextjs-sdk skill (multi-runtime, App Router/Pages Router)
• Nuxt -- tracekit-nuxt-sdk skill (Nuxt module, defineNuxtPlugin)
