@elastic Updated 2026-10-23

Create and manage Kibana Dashboards and Lens visualizations. Use when you need to define dashboards and visualizations declaratively, version control them, or automate their deployment.

Install

With your agent

Install OMGSkills skill "elastic/claude-plugin:skills/kibana/kibana-dashboards" into this agent's normal skills directory: call the OMGSkills MCP get_install_plan tool for your agent and run the script it returns (it installs only the pinned commit and verifies SKILL.md), and stop if MCP or the pin is unavailable. Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.

Manual command

git clone https://github.com/elastic/claude-plugin /tmp/claude-plugin && ln -s /tmp/claude-plugin/skills/kibana/kibana-dashboards ~/.claude/skills/kibana-dashboards

From README

Kibana Dashboards and Lens Visualizations Create, update, and delete Kibana dashboards and standalone Lens visualizations using the Kibana 9.4+ Dashboards and Visualizations APIs. Produce minimal, diffable JSON bodies; prefer inline panel definitions over library references; and choose the correct dataset type (data view vs ES|QL) before writing metrics or chart layers. Environment Configuration This skill executes Elasticsearch operations through the elastic CLI. If the elastic CLI is not installed, tell the user what it is needed for. Do not guess credentials, call the HTTP API directly, or attempt other workarounds. This skill references operations in HTTP-shorthand form (e.g., GET /, GET /cat/indices, GET /{index}/mapping, GET /{index}/settings/index.mode, POST /query). The Operations table at the end of this document maps each shorthand to the equivalent elastic CLI command — always use the CLI rather than calling the HTTP API directly.
