AI agents are only as useful as the context they can access. With gcx, your coding agents can connect to Grafana and query real-time production telemetry from your Cloud, Enterprise, or OSS environment. The best part: it avoids the upfront context bloat that can come with loading tools before you even send a prompt. gcx uses a CLI approach, so there’s zero token cost until your agent actually needs to run a query.

When a compromised GitHub Actions workflow targets your CI/CD pipeline, how do you respond — and what do you change so it never happens again? Nick and David from Grafana Security walk through a real supply chain incident triggered by a pull_request_target misconfiguration, showing exactly what broke, what tools caught it, and what the team rebuilt afterward.

This is an excerpt from a real AI team weekly meeting where we talk about the stuff we build and occasionally also demo them! In this one, Principal Software Engineer Sven Großmann shows a new feature he's working on for AI Observability, called "guards". We're showing parts of our team meetings to build in public in some small way and give you a sneak preview of what's to come. But not all features we show may make it to production! You've been warned. :)

Senior Developer Advocate Nicole van der Hoeven demonstrates how to go from zero to dashboard in a few minutes without using any queries, with the help of Grafana Assistant and the infinity datasource plugin for Grafana. Nicole is using the rawg.io video game database API to visualize games and get recommendations for what to play next!

In this one, Staff Product Design Engineer Ben Darlow demos improvements to Workspace Home. Staff Software Engineer Sonia Aguilar and Principal Software Engineer Sven Großmann also demo a new dependency graph view for Investigations.

You just need a free Grafana Cloud account. It's generous and free forever. Thanks for watching! Was this video helpful?

Note: We're happy to share that since the recording of this video, OpenTelemetry *has* graduated from the CNCF! SREs, developers, and CTOs say open source is essential to observability. Engineering managers and directors? Not so much. Grafana's 4th annual observability survey — 1,363 responses — reveals a split inside the same orgs that's worth a conversation.

Shawn Pitts demos how you can use Grafana Assistant inside Claude Code to get an analysis and code recommendation to fix an issue.

The way you write code is changing, which means the way you observe your systems and respond to issues needs to change, too. Engineers today spend much of their day working via command line, as agentic tools like Cursor and Claude Code have become highly effective at handling many day-to-day engineering tasks. This greatly accelerates code generation, but it doesn't solve for the context switching that comes when you have to jump into another tool that's not part of this new, faster workflow.

In this Community call, we'll be discussing recent K6 updates. From new secrets management feature to Grafana AI assistant integration with K6. Hosts: Bukola Ayodele, Nicole van der Hoeven Experts: Facundo Batista Vicente Ortega Torres.
