A proper Datadog CLI that lets Claude search logs, query metrics, trace requests, and manage dashboards without leaving the terminal. The commands are well organized for incident triage: start with an error summary, compare to previous periods to see if it's new, find patterns in the noise, then drill down by service and follow distributed traces. The required reading setup is a bit formal, but it points to actual reference docs for query syntax and workflows. Runs via npx, needs API keys from your Datadog org settings, and has sensible flags for pretty output and non-US sites. If you're already using Datadog for observability, this beats context switching to the web UI during production firefights.
