opensearch-docs

opensearch-docs is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cookieMonsterDev/agents-skills. It costs 95 tokens per session (1,249 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reference guide for OpenSearch, a search and analytics system that stores data in indexes and provides search, dashboards, and related tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find guidance on deploying and managing clusters, indexing and searching data, mappings, Query DSL, vector search, security, snapshots, Data Prepper, dashboards, and troubleshooting.
Why use it?
It helps avoid applying Elasticsearch assumptions or guessing OpenSearch names and settings when answering technical questions.

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

opensearch-docs scanned grade A with 0 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 5d ago.

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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 114 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

OpenSearch questions are easy to answer from stale Elasticsearch memory or wrong plugin names. Use this skill to ground answers in the official OpenSearch documentation and return the closest authoritative page instead of generic search-engine advice.

When to Use

Use this skill when the request is about:

  • OpenSearch concepts, indices, documents, mappings, and aliases
  • Getting started with OpenSearch and OpenSearch Dashboards
  • Installation, configuration, upgrades, and plugins
  • Indexing, updating, searching, aggregating, and deleting data
  • Query DSL, SQL plugin, PPL, and search patterns
  • Mappings, analyzers, index templates, and index management
  • Vector search, k-NN, semantic search, and hybrid search
  • ML Commons: model deployment, connectors, and AI agents
  • Security plugin: authentication, authorization, and encryption
  • Index State Management (ISM), snapshots, and cluster administration
  • OpenSearch Dashboards: visualizations, Discover, and alerting
  • Data Prepper, clients, Benchmark, and Migration Assistant
  • Observability, anomaly detection, and trace analytics
  • Troubleshooting cluster health, shard allocation, and query performance

Do not use this skill for:

  • Elastic-licensed Elasticsearch or Kibana features documented only on elastic.co. Use elasticsearch-docs instead.
  • Amazon OpenSearch Service console operations when the question is provider-specific rather than OpenSearch behavior.
  • Solr, Meilisearch, or other search engines unless the question maps to documented OpenSearch API behavior.
  • MySQL or PostgreSQL relational database questions.

Workflow

1. Classify the request

Decide which bucket the question belongs to before searching:

  • Getting started and tutorials
  • Install, configure, and upgrade
  • Data modeling: mappings, templates, and index management
  • Search, Query DSL, SQL, and PPL
  • Vector search and machine learning
  • Security and access control
  • Cluster operations, ISM, and snapshots
  • OpenSearch Dashboards and visualization
  • Clients, Data Prepper, and supporting tools
  • API reference and plugin docs
  • Troubleshooting and migration

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.
