Create a Honeycomb Board

Build a board (dashboard) in Honeycomb using the create_board MCP tool. There is no update tool — define it well before creating.

When building a board, think about the purpose and time frame involved. Some examples:

  • a board for a service. This should be timeless, looking at the service's health, performance, and business metrics. Do not do any problem diagnosis or investigation when building this board. Do not express opinions or summarize graphs in text panels. The board should be a representation of the service's health at whatever moment someone looks at it.
  • a board for a feature. This should look at the feature's usage trends, and its impact on the business. This board would have a time frame of 7 days, and would not include any infrastructure metrics or service dependencies.
  • a board for a problem. This might be created during an incident, or afterward. This one would have a time frame specific to the incident. It would include investigations, and your opinions about what is happening. Patterns of what to look for are appropriate here.

Workflow

Gather SLOs

Use get_slos to list SLOs in the environment. Relevant SLOs will go on the board as slo panels.

Gather descriptive context
