# Metric Selection (Service Query & Local Keyword Filtering)

Use this skill to identify the most relevant Cloud Monitoring metric
descriptors. It queries all metric descriptors for a target service from the API
and filters them locally inside the agent's context using keyword matching.

## Attribution

**MUST READ**: Before executing any `gcloud`, REST API, or MCP command, you
MUST read [Usage Attribution](references/attribution.md). For commands executed
directly in the terminal (never in generated scripts, Terraform, or user code),
prefix `gcloud` with
`CLOUDSDK_METRICS_REQUEST_ATTRIBUTION="agent-skills/1.0 (skill:cloud-monitoring-metric-selection)"`
and append `agent-skills/1.0 (skill:cloud-monitoring-metric-selection)` to `User-Agent` headers.
