Drive Netdata with governed agents
Incidents move faster than humans can tab-switch. The Netdata connector is one of 205 executable connectors and gives agents 4 read-only tools, with the credential held in the vault and every call receipted.
What agents can run against Netdata
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
node_info | Get the Netdata node's identity and capacity: version, OS, CPU/RAM, uptime, how many charts and metrics it collects, and which hosts it mirrors |
list_charts | List the charts this Netdata agent collects, each with its id, title, units, chart type and update frequency |
list_alarms | List the alarms currently raised on this node (warning or critical), with their chart, value, status and recipient |
chart_data | Get the recent data points of one chart by id (e.g. system.cpu, system.ram, disk.io), as timestamped rows across the chart's dimensions |
Every tool above is read-only. Write surfaces ship only after live testing, and always behind approval gates.
What the Netdata connector needs
You provide base URL from your Netdata account; Quox sends it as a credential embedded in the endpoint path. 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: Netdata's own API documentation ↗ covers creating and scoping the credential.
How proven is this?
LIVE-PROVEN: every tool on this page was executed with real credentials against a real running Netdata instance (provisioned for the proof, then destroyed), and every call answered successfully. The strongest proof class a connector can carry before it runs inside your own deployment.
Netdata integration FAQ
What can Quox agents do with Netdata?
Agents can run 4 read-only tools against Netdata: node info, list charts, list alarms, chart data. Every call is receipted in the evidence trail.
What does the Netdata integration need?

Do agents see my Netdata credentials?
No. Credentials live encrypted in the Quox vault and are resolved server-side at call time. Agents invoke tools; they never receive the underlying secret.
