build-grafana-dashboards

Design and deploy Grafana dashboards with best practices for maintainability, reusability, and version control.

Expected: Clear dashboard structure documented, stakeholders aligned on metrics and layout priorities.

Expected: Variables populate correctly from data source, cascading filters work (environment filters instances), default selections appropriate.

Create production-ready Grafana dashboards with reusable panels, template variables, annotations, and provisioning for version-controlled dashboard deployment. Use when creating visual representations of Prometheus, Loki, or other data source metrics, building operational dashboards for SRE teams, migrating from manual dashboard creation to version-controlled provisioning, or establishing executive-level SLO compliance reporting.
