What can agents actually do with Grafana?

Incidents move faster than humans can tab-switch. The Grafana connector is one of 222 executable connectors and gives agents 3 tools, with the credential held in the vault and every call receipted.

The Grafana tool list, exactly as agents see it

list_dashboards — Search Grafana dashboards by query and/or tag
get_dashboard — Get a Grafana dashboard by UID, including its panel list
list_alerts — List Grafana alert rules with current state (firing, pending, normal)

What the Grafana connector needs

You provide API key, base URL from your Grafana account. The credential is stored encrypted in the vault and resolved just-in-time, so agents use it without ever seeing it.

Where to get it: Grafana's own API documentation ↗ covers creating and scoping the credential.

How proven is this?

The Grafana connector is a hand-written module that has been exercised against the live Grafana API.

Credentialed The vault stores, tests and just-in-time resolves its credential; agents never see the secret.
Agent-owned No dedicated agent owns it yet; the orchestrator can drive it on request.
Schedulable Not yet exposed in the workflow builder; that integration is on the connector roadmap.
Evidenced Per-call evidence envelopes are on the roadmap; vault credential use is already receipted.
