cisco-intersight-setup

cisco-intersight-setup is a skill for Codex from chambear2809/splunk-cisco-skills. It costs 30 tokens per session (3,271 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A setup guide for Cisco data-center networking in Splunk. It supports ACI, APIC, Nexus Dashboard, and Nexus 9000 data collection and configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create indexes, configure Cisco networking accounts, enable data inputs, and validate the resulting setup.
Why use it?
It reduces manual Splunk setup and provides checks for configuration and incoming network data.

Skill for Codex

Written for Codex: agents/openai.yaml present.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is bash skills/shared/scripts/setup_credentials.sh.

Good fit Use it to create indexes, configure Cisco networking accounts, enable data inputs, and validate the resulting setup.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cisco-intersight-setup scanned grade A with 2 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/configure_account.sh, scripts/load_mcp_tools.sh, scripts/setup.sh, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Asks for rootlowPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

3. **No sudo needed**: Scripts run fine as the `splunk` OS user.

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 338 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Cisco Intersight TA Setup Automation

Prerequisites

Tool or access Purpose Verify
Bash, curl, and jq Run setup and REST configuration helpers command -v bash curl jq
Splunk administrative access Create the index, account, and inputs Confirm search-tier REST access
Intersight API client Authorize selected APIs Store the secret in a protected file

Workflow Overview

┌───────────┐   ┌────────────┐   ┌──────────────────┐   ┌───────────────┐
│ Preflight │ → │ Install TA │ → │ Configure inputs │ → │ Validate data │
└───────────┘   └────────────┘   └──────────────────┘   └───────────────┘

When to Activate

  • Onboard Cisco Intersight audit, alarm, inventory, or metrics data.
  • Configure Splunk_TA_Cisco_Intersight with an OAuth client.
  • Diagnose missing Intersight events, metrics, or dashboard panels.

Scope

This skill configures the Splunk add-on and validates its data path. It does not create Intersight API clients, expose client secrets in chat, or change UCS or HyperFlex infrastructure. Keep credentials file-backed.

Examples

Run readiness checks before configuring an account:

bash skills/cisco-intersight-setup/scripts/validate.sh

Expected output: local tools, Splunk connectivity, package state, and account prerequisites are reported without changing the deployment.

Run strict completion validation after enabling inputs:

bash skills/cisco-intersight-setup/scripts/validate.sh --completion

Expected output: account, input, index, source type, data, and dashboard checks report [PASS]; absent evidence exits nonzero.

Troubleshooting

Issue Cause Resolution
OAuth fails Client or endpoint is wrong Verify the client and secret file
Metrics are absent Metric input/index is disabled Review metric settings
Inputs repeatedly error Scope, clock, or network issue Inspect logs and test reachability
Empty dashboards Macro/index is wrong Validate data, then align dashboards

What ships with it

8 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
