kibob (Kibana Object Manager)

What it does

This skill encapsulates operational knowledge for the kibob CLI, a Git-like tool to manage Kibana saved objects, workflows, agents, tools, and spaces. It provides step-by-step runbooks for initializing projects from NDJSON exports, pulling and pushing changes safely, creating distributable bundles, and migrating legacy manifests. The skill emphasizes safe promotion workflows and explicit flags to avoid destructive changes.

When to use it

• When you need to initialize a kibob project from exports, authenticate to Kibana, or prepare bundle artifacts for handoff.
• When selecting correct flags for --space, --api, --managed, or dotenv loading for different environments (dev/stage/prod).
• When troubleshooting auth, scope, manifest expansion, or promotion workflows between environments.

What's included

• Scripts: none (has_scripts=false)
• References: references/kibob-commands.md with a command-selection matrix and flag reminders (has_references=true)
• Instructions: detailed runbooks for init/pull/push, environment promotion examples (dev→stage→prod), guidance on managed mode policy, and troubleshooting tips (use --debug, re-pull after push, dotenv conventions).

Compatible agents

Useful for agents that can advise on CLI workflows and DevOps tasks (Codex, Copilot, CLI-capable assistants). The skill assumes access to dotenv files and encourages safe checks before destructive operations.
