splunk-viz

splunk-viz is a skill for Codex from rcastley/splunk-custom-visualizations. It costs 127 tokens per session (1,562 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A development workflow for building custom Canvas 2D visualizations in Splunk dashboards. Splunk is a platform for searching and displaying machine and business data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating, modifying, debugging, testing, and packaging visualizations for legacy Splunk dashboards or Dashboard Studio.
Why use it?
It helps choose the correct Splunk dashboard framework and keeps its code, configuration, packaging, and tests compatible with that framework.

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

splunk-viz 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 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (assets/dashboard-app-build.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Build Splunk Custom Visualizations

Generate production-ready Canvas 2D custom visualizations for both Splunk frameworks.

Select the framework first

Determine the framework before creating or changing files. Do not mix lifecycle, configuration, build, or harness conventions.

Target Select when Runtime and configuration
Native Dashboard Studio Create a new visualization specifically for Dashboard Studio on Splunk 10.4+ Sandboxed iframe, @splunk/dashboard-studio-extension, config.json, ES modules, esbuild, .spl package
Legacy custom visualization Support Simple XML, Search, saved reports, an existing SplunkVisualizationBase app, or pre-10.4 deployments Backbone/AMD, SplunkVisualizationBase, formatter.html, webpack, legacy app package
Both outputs The user explicitly needs both frameworks Separate framework adapters around shared rendering and normalization modules; independent packages and tests

For a vague new Dashboard Studio request, recommend the native Studio framework. Do not call a legacy visualization that happens to render in Dashboard Studio a native Studio extension.

Confirm or infer:

  1. Target framework: native Studio, legacy, or both outputs.
  2. Minimum Splunk version and deployment target: Enterprise, Cloud, or both.
  3. Visualization ID, label, description, author, required and optional SPL fields, settings, drilldowns, tokens, and no-data behavior.
  4. Native Studio template: JavaScript, TypeScript, React, or React + TypeScript. Prefer TypeScript for new work; use React only when component state or UI composition justifies it.

Route to the required references

Native Dashboard Studio

Read before editing:

  • references/studio-framework.md — required project, API, configuration, packaging, and verification workflow
  • references/studio-canvas-template.md — required for framework-agnostic JavaScript or TypeScript Canvas visualizations
  • references/studio-react-template.md — required only for React or React + TypeScript
  • references/studio-harness.md — required whenever creating or changing native Studio test coverage

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.
