What it does

Uses curl and a bundled es-cli wrapper to give CodeBuddy access to Elasticsearch clusters. The agent can search indices, manage mappings, check cluster health, and run aggregations.

Prerequisites

Elasticsearch access via HTTP. Set the cluster URL:

export ES_URL="http://localhost:9200"

For secured clusters, configure authentication as needed per your Elasticsearch setup (API key, basic auth, etc.).

The skill includes a bundled install.sh for setting up the CLI wrapper.

Verify connectivity:

curl -s "$ES_URL/_cluster/health" | python3 -m json.tool

Capabilities

• Search — full-text queries, bool queries, aggregations
• Indices — create, delete, list, stats, mappings
• Cluster — health, node stats, shard allocation
• Documents — index, get, update, delete, bulk
• Aliases — create, list, swap

Example prompts

• “Check the cluster health status”
• “Search the logs-* index for errors in the last hour”
• “Show the mapping for the products index”
• “Run an aggregation to count events by status code”
