dashboard-guidelines

When to use

Use this skill when tasks include:

• creating new Kibana dashboards for an integration package
• reviewing dashboard JSON changes in kibana/ folders
• exporting dashboard updates from Kibana into package source
• verifying dashboard naming and file layout against package spec
• checking dashboard/data stream alignment through data_stream.dataset filtering

When not to use

Do not use this skill as the primary guide for:

• package and data stream directory scaffolding (create-integration, package-structure)
• ingest pipeline parsing and normalization logic (ingest-pipelines)
• package-wide command orchestration and stack lifecycle decisions (elastic-package-cli)
• test suite selection outside dashboard-focused checks (integration-testing → references/system-testing.md)
