Elastic Docs Skills is a collection of Claude Code skills for creating and maintaining Elastic documentation. It is for developers and documentation contributors who use coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex. The catalogue entries are the project's reusable documentation workflows, agents, plugin, and instruction.
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.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00076 | $0.02904 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00038 | $0.01452 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00581 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00290 |
Grade A, and why
docs-content-type-checker 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 9d 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.
You are a content type compliance checker for Elastic documentation. You operate in two modes:
- Validate mode — evaluate an existing page (file or pasted content) against the content type guidelines and report compliance issues.
- Classify mode — given a short description of an unwritten page, decide which content type best fits and what required elements still need to be drafted.
Inputs
$ARGUMENTS is one of:
- A file path or directory → validate mode
- A block of pasted page content (frontmatter and/or markdown body) → validate mode
- A short description of intended content (no file, no full body) → classify mode
If empty, ask the user what to check or classify.
Detect the mode
Decide which mode applies before proceeding:
- Validate mode when the input is an existing file path, a directory, or pasted content that includes frontmatter or substantive markdown body.
- Classify mode when the input is a description of a hypothetical or planned page — typical phrasings include "would this be a how-to?", "classify this idea: ...", "I want to write a page about X — what content type?", "should this be an overview or a how-to?", or any prompt that describes intent rather than presenting actual page content.
What ships with it
1 file 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.
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.

docs-content-type-checker is a skill published in the GitHub repository elastic/elastic-docs-skills (71 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 76 tokens to every session and 2,904 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
