elastic-package-cli

elastic-package-cli is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from elastic/integration-skills. It costs 38 tokens per session (746 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command-line toolkit for developing and validating Elastic integrations. Elastic integrations package data collection, processing, mappings, tests, and related assets for use with Elastic products.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to format, lint, check, and build packages; run pipeline or system tests; manage a local Elastic test stack; and install or inspect packages in Kibana.
Why use it?
It automates checks that can catch formatting, package, build, and test problems before an integration is installed or shared.

About the project

Integration Skills is a collection of agent workflows for researching, creating, reviewing, and maintaining Elastic integration packages. Engineers use it with coding environments such as Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex to scaffold integrations, configure data streams, map fields, and run tests.

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

elastic-package-cli 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.

elastic-package CLI

When to use

Use this skill when tasks include:

  • validating package structure and formatting
  • building a package artifact
  • running pipeline or system tests
  • managing local Elastic test stack lifecycle
  • installing or checking package status in Kibana

When not to use

Do not use this skill as the primary guide for:

  • ECS field design decisions (use an ECS-focused skill)
  • ingest processor design and parsing strategy (use an ingest-pipeline-focused skill)
  • package layout architecture (use a package-structure-focused skill)

Prerequisites

  • elastic-package is installed and available in PATH
  • container runtime is available (Docker or Podman)
  • you run commands from a package directory (or pass -C <package-dir>)

Core workflows

1) Validate and build loop

Run this sequence for routine local verification:

elastic-package format
elastic-package lint
elastic-package check
elastic-package build

Notes:

  • check runs lint and build together and fails fast by default.
  • use format --fail-fast when you want read-only verification without rewriting files.

2) Pipeline test loop (fast iteration)

Use Elasticsearch-only stack for quicker feedback:

elastic-package stack up -d --services=elasticsearch
elastic-package test pipeline
elastic-package test pipeline --generate

Then review generated expected files before keeping changes.

3) System test loop (end-to-end)

Use this when you need full ingest behavior with service provisioning:

elastic-package stack up -d
elastic-package service up
elastic-package test system

Use --data-streams <name> to scope tests and reduce run time.

Practical command examples

# format package files
elastic-package format

# lint against package spec and templates
elastic-package lint

# combined validation workflow
elastic-package check

# build package artifact
elastic-package build

# start only Elasticsearch for pipeline tests
elastic-package stack up -d --services=elasticsearch

# run pipeline tests
elastic-package test pipeline

# regenerate expected pipeline outputs
elastic-package test pipeline --generate

# run end-to-end system tests
elastic-package test system

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.

elastic-package-cli is a skill published in the GitHub repository elastic/integration-skills (15 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 746 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-31.
