docs-lens-chart-settings

docs-lens-chart-settings is a skill for Claude Code from elastic/elastic-docs-skills. It costs 71 tokens per session (2,138 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A source-code verification guide for Kibana Lens, Elastic’s interface for creating charts and other data visualizations. It identifies the exact chart settings, labels, conditions, and display order shown in the interface.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when documenting or checking Lens bar, line, area, pie, treemap, heat map, gauge, metric, table, and other supported visualizations.
Why use it?
It helps keep documentation accurate when chart options vary by visualization type or selected settings. This avoids documenting labels or controls based on guesswork.

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

docs-lens-chart-settings 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 10d 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.

Verifying Kibana Lens Chart Settings from Source Code

When documenting Lens chart settings, always verify labels, options, and rendering order against the Kibana source code. Do NOT guess UI labels.

Key Principles

  1. UI labels come from i18n defaultMessage strings — always extract the exact label.
  2. Rendering order in JSX = rendering order in the UI — document settings in the same order they appear in the component tree.
  3. Conditional rendering is everywhere — many settings only appear under specific conditions (chart type, selected options, number of dimensions). Trace the conditions.
  4. Shared components are parameterized per chart — the same LegendSettings component behaves differently for treemaps vs waffle vs pie based on props.

Source Code Layout

Partition charts (pie, donut, treemap, mosaic, waffle)

All partition-type charts share code under:

x-pack/platform/plugins/shared/lens/public/visualizations/partition/
├── partition_charts_meta.ts          # Per-chart config (toolbar options, legend config)
├── toolbar/
│   ├── style_settings.tsx            # Orchestrates Style panel sections
│   ├── titles_and_text_settings.tsx  # Slice labels + Slice values options
│   ├── appearance_settings.tsx       # Donut hole (pie/donut only)
│   └── legend_settings.tsx           # Partition-specific legend wrapper

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.
