An administration helper for Kibana Agent Builder, which lets teams create AI agents and the tools they can call using Elasticsearch data and workflows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create, inspect, update, delete, and test Agent Builder agents and tools, including search, query, and workflow tools.
Why use it?
It gives agents controlled ways to search data or run workflows instead of leaving their behavior and available tools undefined.

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

kibana-agent-builder 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 4d 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 — 226 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Kibana Agent Builder

Create, inspect, update, delete, and test Agent Builder tools and agents. Ground LLM responses in Elasticsearch data through scoped search tools, parameterized ES|QL, and workflow integrations.

Environment Configuration

This skill executes Elasticsearch operations through the elastic CLI. If the elastic CLI is not installed, tell the user what it is needed for. Do not guess credentials, call the HTTP API directly, or attempt other workarounds.

This skill references operations in HTTP-shorthand form (e.g., GET /, GET /_cat/indices, GET /{index}/_mapping, GET /{index}/_settings/index.mode, POST /_query). The Operations table at the end of this document maps each shorthand to the equivalent elastic CLI command — always use the CLI rather than calling the HTTP API directly.

Resource model

Agent Builder exposes three distinct resource kinds — do not conflate them:

Kind Purpose Typical API
Tool Reusable function an agent invokes to retrieve or act on data (index_search, esql, workflow) POST kbn:/api/agent_builder/tools
Agent LLM entity with instructions and a curated toolset POST kbn:/api/agent_builder/agents
Chat / conversation Ephemeral messaging session with an existing agent POST kbn:/api/agent_builder/converse/async

Creating a tool does not create an agent. Listing or chatting with an agent does not create a tool. When the user asks to "create an agent" or "create a tool," identify which resource they mean before calling a write API.

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.
