This is a CLI wrapper around Datadog's API for debugging production issues without leaving your terminal. You get log search, real-time tailing, distributed tracing, metric queries, and dashboard management. The incident triage workflow is genuinely useful: start with error summary, compare to previous periods, find patterns, then drill into specific traces. It requires API and app keys from your Datadog org. The built-in commands like logs compare and logs patterns save you from writing the same queries repeatedly. If you're already using Datadog and want faster access during incidents, this beats context-switching to the web UI.
