Honeycomb

#What Antimetal does with Honeycomb

• Run queries against your datasets to isolate the affected slice of traffic
• Analyze columns to find the dimension that separates failing requests from healthy ones
• Follow distributed traces to the span where latency or errors originate
• Read triggers to see which conditions your team alerts on

#Connecting Honeycomb

Prerequisites

• A Honeycomb team with Honeycomb Intelligence enabled
• Team owner permission, which is required to create a Management API key

1. Open API key settings

   Log in to Honeycomb and go to Account > Team Settings > API Keys.

2. Create a Management API key

   Click Create Management API Key and name it Antimetal.

3. Grant read scopes

   Select the Model Context Protocol and Environments scopes, and grant Read on both. No write scopes are needed.

4. Copy the Key ID and Key Secret

   Copy both values. The secret is shown only once — save it securely.

5. Share the key with Antimetal

   Provide the key in KEY_ID:KEY_SECRET format. Antimetal selects the US (mcp.honeycomb.io) or EU (mcp.eu1.honeycomb.io) endpoint automatically based on your account.

#Permissions and access

Antimetal uses a read-only Management API key scoped to Model Context Protocol and Environments. It is restricted to listing and reading datasets, running queries, and analyzing columns. No write operations are performed.

All tenant data is processed in isolated environments. See security and compliance for details.
