cx-olly
This skill should be used when the user asks to "chat with AI", "ask Olly", "ask the agent", "send message to AI", "continue a chat", "follow up on chat", "get artifact", "download artifact", "list artifacts", "retrieve generated content", "AI-generated charts", "AI analysis", "conversational observability", "natural language query", or wants to interact with the Coralogix Observability Agent (Olly) using the cx CLI.
What this skill does
# Olly Observability Agent Skill
Use this skill to interact with Coralogix's Observability Agent (Olly) via the `cx olly` CLI commands. Olly can analyze your observability data, answer questions about alerts, metrics, logs, and generate artifacts like charts and reports.
## CLI Commands
| Command | Purpose | Key flags |
|---|---|---|
| `cx olly ask "message"` | Send a message to the Observability Agent | `--chat-id`, `--model`, `--timeout` |
| `cx olly artifacts list` | List all generated artifacts | - |
| `cx olly artifacts get <id>` | Get artifact content by ID | - |
**Output format:** append `-o json` or `-o agents` for machine-readable output.
**Single-profile only:** `cx olly` commands do not support multi-profile fan-out. Use `-p <profile>` to specify a single profile.
## Chat Commands
### Start a new conversation
```bash
cx olly ask "What alerts fired today?"
```
This creates a new chat and returns a response along with a **Chat ID** that you can use for follow-up questions.
### Continue an existing chat
```bash
cx olly ask "Tell me more about the error rates" --chat-id <chat-id>
```
Use `--chat-id` to continue a conversation and maintain context from previous messages.
### Model selection
Available models include `gpt-5.2` (default), `claude-sonnet-4-5`, `sonnet-4.6`, `gpt-5.4`, `claude-haiku-4-5`.
```bash
cx olly ask "Explain this error" --model claude-sonnet-4-5
```
### Timeout
For complex queries that may take longer, increase the timeout (default: 900 seconds):
```bash
cx olly ask "Deep analysis of last week's incidents" --timeout 1800
```
## Artifacts
Olly can generate artifacts like charts, tables, and reports. Artifact IDs appear as links in the agent's response text.
### List all artifacts
```bash
cx olly artifacts list
cx olly artifacts list -o json
```
### Get artifact content
```bash
cx olly artifacts get <artifact-id>
cx olly artifacts get <artifact-id> -o json
```
The `artifacts get` command automatically:
1. Fetches artifact metadata
2. Downloads content from the presigned URL
3. **Decompresses gzip** content
4. **Parses JSON** and uses spill logic for large content
5. Saves non-JSON text to a temp file
Output behavior:
- **JSON content**: Displayed directly, or spilled to file if large
- **Text content**: Saved to temp file (e.g., `/tmp/cx_results_artifact_<id>_<hash>.txt`)
## Workflow Examples
### Investigate an issue
```bash
# Start investigation
cx olly ask "Why is the checkout service showing high latency?"
# Follow up with the chat ID from the response
cx olly ask "What changed in the last hour?" --chat-id abc-123-def
# Get any generated charts
cx olly artifacts list -o json | jq '.[0].id'
cx olly artifacts get <artifact-id>
```
### Get JSON output for scripting
```bash
# Get response as JSON
cx olly ask "List top 5 error messages" -o json | jq '.response'
# Parse artifacts
cx olly artifacts list -o json | jq '.[] | {id, filename, created_at}'
```
### Detailed analysis with specific model
```bash
cx olly ask "Perform root cause analysis for the outage on 2024-01-15" \
--model claude-sonnet-4-5 \
--timeout 1800
```
## Key Principles
- **Chat IDs enable context** - save the Chat ID from responses to continue conversations
- **Use `-o json` for scripting** - pipe to `jq` for filtering and extraction
- **Artifact IDs are in response text** - look for markdown links like `[Chart](https://...artifact_view/<id>)`
- **Single-profile only** - `cx olly` does not support multi-profile queries
- **Large artifacts auto-spill** - JSON content over the configured limit is saved to temp files

skill-development
IncludedComprehensive meta-skill for creating, managing, validating, auditing, and distributing Claude Code skills and slash commands (unified in v2.1.3+). Provides skill templates, creation workflows, validation patterns, audit checklists, naming conventions, YAML frontmatter guidance, progressive disclosure examples, and best practices lookup. Use when creating new skills, validating existing skills, auditing skill quality, understanding skill architecture, needing skill templates, learning about YAML frontmatter requirements, progressive disclosure patterns, tool restrictions (allowed-tools), skill composition, skill naming conventions, troubleshooting skill activation issues, creating custom slash commands, configuring command frontmatter, using command arguments ($ARGUMENTS, $1, $2), bash execution in commands, file references in commands, command namespacing, plugin commands, MCP slash commands, Skill tool configuration, or deciding between skills vs slash commands. Delegates to docs-management skill for official documentation.
reprompter
IncludedTransform messy prompts into well-structured, effective prompts — single or multi-agent. Use when: "reprompt", "reprompt this", "clean up this prompt", "structure my prompt", rough text needing XML tags and best practices, "reprompter teams", "repromptception", "run with quality", "smart run", "smart agents", multi-agent tasks, audits, parallel work, anything going to agent teams. Don't use when: simple Q&A, pure chat, immediate execution-only tasks. See "Don't Use When" section for details. Outputs: Structured XML/Markdown prompt, quality score (before/after), optional team brief + per-agent sub-prompts, agent team output files. Success criteria: Single mode quality score ≥ 7/10; Repromptception per-agent prompt quality score 8+/10; all required sections present, actionable and specific.
adaptive-compaction
IncludedAdaptive add-on policy and recovery layer that decides WHEN to compact, prune, snapshot, or fork -- replacing fixed-percent auto-compaction across Claude Code, Codex, and MCP-capable hosts. Trigger on auto-compact timing or damage: "when should I compact", "is it safe to compact now or start a fresh session", "auto-compact fires too early/mid-task", "switching to an unrelated task but the window still has space", "context rot", "answers get worse the longer the session runs", "the agent forgot the plan or my decisions after it summarized", "add a layer on top that manages context without changing the agent", raising autoCompactWindow to give the policy room, or installing/tuning a cross-tool compaction policy or PreCompact hook -- even when "compaction" is never said but the problem is context-window pressure or post-summarization memory loss. Do NOT use to summarize a conversation, build RAG, write a summarization prompt (decides WHEN not HOW), or answer max-context-length trivia.
agent-skill-creator
IncludedCreate cross-platform agent skills from workflow descriptions. Activates when users ask to create an agent, automate a repetitive workflow, create a custom skill, or need advanced agent creation. Triggers on phrases like create agent for, automate workflow, create skill for, every day I have to, daily I need to, turn process into agent, need to automate, create a cross-platform skill, validate this skill, export this skill, migrate this skill. Supports single skills, multi-agent suites, transcript processing, template-based creation, interactive configuration, cross-platform export, and spec validation.
llm-wiki
IncludedUse when building or maintaining a persistent personal knowledge base (second brain) in Obsidian where an LLM incrementally ingests sources, updates entity/concept pages, maintains cross-references, and keeps a synthesis current. Triggers include "second brain", "Obsidian wiki", "personal knowledge management", "ingest this paper/article/book", "build a research wiki", "compound knowledge", "Memex", or whenever the user wants knowledge to accumulate across sessions instead of being re-derived by RAG on every query.
skill-master
IncludedAgent Skills authoring, evaluation, and optimization. Create, edit, validate, benchmark, and improve skills following the agentskills.io specification. Use when designing SKILL.md files, structuring skill folders (references, scripts, assets), ingesting external documentation into skills, running trigger evals, benchmarking skill quality, optimizing descriptions, or performing blind A/B comparisons. Keywords: agentskills.io, SKILL.md, skill authoring, eval, benchmark, trigger optimization.
