At a glance

This skill should be used whenever the user runs any cx command, uses the cx CLI, Coralogix CLI, or mentions cx in the context of Coralogix observability.

  • Works in 3 steps: Primary — toon mode (-o toon) → Schema startup check → Fallback — human-readable text
  • Tasks that involve Observability
  • SKILL.md covers Update Notifications and General cx CLI Guidelines
  • Calls npx; reaches github.com

What it does

Cx CLI is an agent skill from coralogix/cx-cli. This skill should be used whenever the user runs any cx command, uses the cx CLI, Coralogix CLI, or mentions cx in the context of Coralogix observability. This skill provides cross-cutting concerns like update notifications that apply to all cx commands.

Its SKILL.md is about 750 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Observability. The repository describes itself as: This is the Coralogix CLI. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Observability

Example prompts

  • “/cx-cli”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Primary — toon mode (-o toon)
  2. Schema startup check
  3. Fallback — human-readable text

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c071372. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Cx CLI loads about 749 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 302 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~749

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Cross-cutting behaviors for all cx CLI commands.


Update Notifications

After running any cx command, check for update notices using the channels below (in priority order). If a newer version is available, finish answering the user's request first, then mention the update once at the end.

An update notice always has two parts — binary upgrade and skills refresh. Offer both commands; don't mention only the version number or only the binary upgrade.

1. Primary — toon mode (-o toon)

Commands with --output toon append a standalone trailing JSON line to stdout:

json
{"_meta":{"update":{"binary":{"current":"0.1.7","latest":"0.2.0","command":"brew upgrade cx"},"skills":{"command":"npx skills add coralogix/cx-cli/skills","docs":"https://github.com/coralogix/cx-cli#install"}}}}

Scan the last line of stdout for _meta.update. When present:

  • Binary upgrade: _meta.update.binary.command (current: .binary.current, latest: .binary.latest)
  • Skills refresh: _meta.update.skills.command
2. Schema startup check

cx schema embeds the same _meta.update object at the top level of the schema JSON (not a trailing line). Check _meta.update.binary and _meta.update.skills the same way.

3. Fallback — human-readable text

Also scan stderr and stdout for plain-text notices. Binary and skills appear on one line, separated by |:

[cx update] v0.2.0 available (you have 0.1.9) | upgrade: brew upgrade cx | skills: npx skills add coralogix/cx-cli/skills

TTY text mode uses two lines with the same upgrade: ... | skills: ... pattern:

cx 0.2.0 is available (you have 0.1.9).
upgrade: brew upgrade cx | skills: npx skills add coralogix/cx-cli/skills

These appear on stderr for text/json mode after normal commands.

Response template

[Summarize the command result here]


A newer cx version (X.Y.Z) is available — you have A.B.C. Would you like me to run <binary upgrade command> and npx skills add coralogix/cx-cli/skills to update?

Keep it to one brief closing line. Don't repeat on later commands in the same session.


General cx CLI Guidelines

  • Always use --output toon for machine-readable output when processing results programmatically
  • Use cx schema to discover available commands and their flags
  • Commands support multi-profile fan-out with -p profile1 -p profile2
  • For commands that query or manage Coralogix data, use --http-timeout <SECONDS> or CX_HTTP_TIMEOUT=<SECONDS> to set an API request deadline.
  • Use --yes to skip confirmation prompts in scripts
  • Use --read-only for safe exploration without risk of modifications
