## What it does

The skill teaches an agent to work with Coralogix SLOs through the `cx slos` CLI. Listing SLOs, pulling one by ID, checking attainment against `targetThresholdPercentage`, creating, replacing and deleting JSON definitions — the agent handles it without opening the web UI.

The commands are short: `cx slos list`, `cx slos get <id>`, `cx slos create --from-file <path>`, `cx slos update --from-file <path>`, `cx slos delete <id>`. Add `-o json` for structured output, and repeat `-p <profile>` to fan out across environments. Writes need `--yes` in non-interactive mode, otherwise the agent stalls on a confirmation prompt. Don't hand-write the JSON: pull a template with `cx slos get <existing-slo-id> -o json`, edit the fields, send it back. That keeps the exact shape the API expects.

One thing to watch. `update` and `delete` return `effectedSloAlertIds`, the alerts they touch. Deleting an SLO can silence the alerts attached to it, so read that list before confirming. When a target is breaching, the `cx-telemetry-querying` skill picks up from there and digs through logs, spans and metrics.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add coralogix/cx-cli --skill cx-slos -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/cx-slos/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/cx-slos/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add coralogix/cx-cli --skill cx-slos -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/cx-slos/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add coralogix/cx-cli --skill cx-slos -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/cx-slos/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install coralogix/cx-cli cx-slos
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**

gemini skills install https://github.com/coralogix/cx-cli --path skills/cx-slos
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/cx-slos/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**

## When to use it
- list every SLO with its target and rolling window
- see how much error budget a service has left
- create an SLO from a JSON file instead of building fields by hand
- replace an SLO definition and see which alerts it affects
- compare SLOs across environments with multiple profiles

## Example prompts
- list all SLOs and their targets
- how much error budget is left on SLO <slo-id>
- create an SLO from slo.json

  Manage Coralogix SLO (Service Level Objective) definitions with the `cx slos`
  CLI — list and inspect SLOs, check whether targets and error budgets are
  healthy, and create, update, or delete SLO definitions from JSON. Use when the
  user asks to "list SLOs", "check SLO status", "is an SLO breaching", "error
  budget", "create an SLO", "update an SLO", "delete an SLO", or "service level
  objective".

# SLO Management Skill

An **SLO** (Service Level Objective) defines a reliability target for a service —
e.g. "99.9% of requests succeed over 28 days". Use this skill to inspect SLO
definitions, judge whether they are healthy, and manage their lifecycle.

## CLI Commands

| Command | Purpose |
|---|---|
| `cx slos list` | List all SLO definitions |
| `cx slos get <id>` | Get a single SLO by ID |
| `cx slos create --from-file <path>` | Create an SLO from a JSON definition [requires `--yes`] |
| `cx slos update --from-file <path>` | Replace an SLO definition from JSON [requires `--yes`] |
| `cx slos delete <id>` | Delete an SLO [requires `--yes`] |

- All commands support `-o json` for structured output and `-p <profile>` (repeatable) for multi-profile fan-out.
- `create`/`update` read from `--from-file <path>`, or `-` for stdin (the default).
- `create`, `update`, and `delete` are write operations and require `--yes` in non-interactive / agent mode.

## SLO Definition

The fields surfaced on every SLO:

| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| `name` | Human-readable SLO name |
| `description` | Optional description |
| `targetThresholdPercentage` | The objective, e.g. `99.9` |
| `sloType` | `SLO_TYPE_REQUEST` (request-based) or `SLO_TYPE_WINDOW` (window-based) |
| `sloTimeFrame` | Rolling window, e.g. `SLO_TIME_FRAME_7_DAYS`, `SLO_TIME_FRAME_28_DAYS` |
| `productType` | The pillar the SLO is computed from, e.g. `SLO_PRODUCT_TYPE_APM` |

## Monitoring SLO Health

```bash
# All SLOs with their target and window
cx slos list -o json | jq '[.[] | {name, targetThresholdPercentage, sloType, sloTimeFrame}]'

# Inspect a single SLO in full
cx slos get <slo-id> -o json
```

Compare the live attainment against `targetThresholdPercentage` to judge whether
the SLO is healthy or burning error budget. A **request-based** SLO measures the
fraction of good events; a **window-based** SLO measures the fraction of good time
windows. After triage, pivot to the `cx-telemetry-querying` skill to find the root
cause of a breach in logs, spans, or metrics.

## Creating and Updating SLOs

The safest way to author an SLO is to round-trip an existing one — template from the
exact field shape that `get` returns rather than hand-writing JSON:

```bash
# Template from an existing SLO, edit, then create
cx slos get <existing-slo-id> -o json > slo.json
