# Elastic Agent Skills

Elastic Agent Skills is Elastic's official library of Agent Skills that teach an AI coding assistant how to correctly use Elasticsearch, Kibana, Elastic Observability and Elastic Security, compatible with agentic IDEs such as Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf and Gemini CLI.

Elastic Agent Skills is built by Elastic and follows the open Agent Skills standard: each skill is a self-contained package with a SKILL.md file of metadata and instructions that an agent reads to complete a specific task correctly, rather than relying on the model's general, potentially outdated knowledge of the platform.

The library's current scope covers interacting with Elasticsearch APIs for search, indexing and cluster management, building and managing Kibana content such as alerts and connectors, and patterns for Elastic Observability, Elastic Security and Agent Builder. Example skills include onboarding an Elastic Cloud organization, configuring its CLI and API keys, and provisioning or operating Elastic Cloud infrastructure such as serverless projects, network security traffic filters, and the lifecycle of hosted deployments.

It is written in JavaScript and marked as a technical preview, with skills expected to change as they gain more rigorous evaluation.
