Kibana Agent Builder

If you're managing Elastic's Agent Builder in Kibana, this handles the full lifecycle: creating agents, updating them, deleting them, and testing chat interactions. It also covers custom tool management for ES|QL queries, index searches, and workflows. You'll need your Kibana URL and either an API key or username/password combo to authenticate. The skill can pull from user arguments for agent names, which is handy for scripting. It's focused stuff, no fluff. If you're already in the Elastic ecosystem and building conversational agents on top of your data, this saves you from writing your own API wrappers around Kibana's Agent Builder endpoints.

Kibana Agent Builder

Create, inspect, update, delete, and test Agent Builder tools and agents. Ground LLM responses in Elasticsearch data through scoped search tools, parameterized ES|QL, and workflow integrations.

Environment Configuration

This skill executes Elasticsearch operations through the elastic CLI. If the elastic CLI is not installed, tell the user what it is needed for. Do not guess credentials, call the HTTP API directly, or attempt other workarounds.

This skill references operations in HTTP-shorthand form (e.g., GET /, GET /_cat/indices, GET /{index}/_mapping, GET /{index}/_settings/index.mode, POST /_query). The Operations table at the end of this document maps each shorthand to the equivalent elastic CLI command — always use the CLI rather than calling the HTTP API directly.
