elastic/cursor-plugins is a collection of Cursor plugins that give AI assistants access to Elastic documentation and guidance for Elastic Cloud, Elasticsearch, Kibana, Observability, and Security. Developers use it when working with Elastic products and related technologies. The catalogue lists these plugins' skills and documentation MCP tools.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00048 | $0.04208 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00024 | $0.02104 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00842 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00421 |
Grade A, and why
kibana-alerting-rules 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 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.

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

100% identical to kibana-alerting-rules — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Kibana Alerting Rules
Core Concepts
A rule has three parts: conditions (what to detect), schedule (how often to check), and actions (what happens when conditions are met). When conditions are met, the rule creates alerts, which trigger actions via connectors.
Authentication
All alerting API calls require either API key auth or Basic auth. Every mutating request must include the kbn-xsrf
header.
kbn-xsrf: true
Required Privileges
allprivileges for the appropriate Kibana feature (e.g., Stack Rules, Observability, Security)readprivileges for Actions and Connectors (to attach actions to rules)
API Reference
Base path: <kibana_url>/api/alerting (or /s/<space_id>/api/alerting for non-default spaces).

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.

kibana-alerting-rules is a skill published in the GitHub repository elastic/cursor-plugins (31 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 4,208 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). It is 100% identical to kibana-alerting-rules, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
