cisco-thousandeyes-setup

cisco-thousandeyes-setup is a skill for Codex from chambear2809/splunk-cisco-skills. It costs 32 tokens per session (3,801 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A setup guide for bringing Cisco ThousandEyes network-test results into Splunk through OAuth, HTTP Event Collector, streaming, or API polling. ThousandEyes monitors the performance and reachability of applications, networks, and services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure ThousandEyes accounts and data inputs, onboard cloud or agent test results, and validate Splunk dashboards and optional ITSI integration.
Why use it?
It helps avoid missing data, duplicate collection, and dashboards that appear empty because authentication or input paths are incomplete.

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.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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-thousandeyes-setup scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 384 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Cisco ThousandEyes App 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 indexes, HEC, accounts, and inputs Confirm search-tier REST access
ThousandEyes account-group access Authorize OAuth and selected test data Record the numeric account-group ID

Workflow Overview

┌───────────┐   ┌────────────────┐   ┌──────────────────┐   ┌────────────────────┐
│ Preflight │ → │ Configure auth │ → │ Enable data path │ → │ Validate dashboards │
└───────────┘   └────────────────┘   └──────────────────┘   └────────────────────┘

When to Activate

  • Configure ThousandEyes OAuth, HEC streaming, or API polling in Splunk.
  • Onboard cloud, enterprise-agent, or endpoint test results.
  • Diagnose missing path data, empty dashboards, or optional ITSI readiness.

Scope

This skill configures the Splunk application and its data paths. It does not create ThousandEyes tests, expose OAuth or HEC tokens in chat, or enable both streaming and polling for the same data without duplicate-ingest review.

Examples

Run preflight diagnostics before authentication:

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

Expected output: package, local tools, Splunk access, and account prerequisites are reported without creating tokens or inputs.

Run strict completion checks after enabling the selected path:

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

Expected output: account, HEC or polling input, index, source type, recent data, and dashboard evidence report [PASS] or exit nonzero.

Troubleshooting

Issue Cause Resolution
Device flow expires Approval timed out Restart and approve promptly
No HEC events Token, endpoint, or index is wrong Verify without printing token
Duplicate test events Streaming and polling overlap Keep one path per dataset
Empty dashboards/ITSI Index, macro, or type is wrong Validate events first

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.
