Skills

Skills are specialized playbooks stored in the LogMan.io Library under /AI/Skills/. They follow the Agent Skills pattern.

Because skills live in the Library:

• TeskaLabs distributes them through the Common Library
• You can customize or author your own with the same Library workflows you already use for detections and parsers
• The harness discovers them at conversation start without baking procedures into the default prompt

How skills work

1. At conversation start the agent sees only name + description for each skill
2. When a task matches, it library_reads /AI/Skills/<name>/SKILL.md — that activates the skill
3. The skill may declare shares to mount, extra tools to activate, nested references, and scripts under /library/AI/Skills/<name>/

Progressive disclosure keeps context small until a skill is actually needed.

LogMan.io skills

Skill	Library path	Role
lmio-knowledge	/AI/Skills/lmio-knowledge/	Product docs, OpenAPI, Common Library reference (lmio-kb share)
lmio-query	/AI/Skills/lmio-query/	Analytical queries against log/event/metric data
lmio-rest-api	/AI/Skills/lmio-rest-api/	Authenticated HTTP calls to a LogMan.io instance
lmio-detection-engineer	/AI/Skills/lmio-detection-engineer/	Author, unit-test, hunt, and publish correlation rules

Deep dives: Knowledge base (lmio-kb), Query, REST API.

Hint

The skill list is growing quickly, so don't consider this as a final list. It certainly is not.

Other important skills

Skill	Role
devops	SSH, remote admin, infrastructure troubleshooting
facts	Persistent fact store (share facts)
soul-bootstrap	Create or update /AI/Soul/SOUL.md
skill-authoring	Write new skills into the Library
llm-wiki	User-curated research wiki on a share
gitlab	GitLab workflows
trace-investigation	Investigate harness / LLM traces

Development-oriented skills (dev-lmio-*, SchemaExpert, ShellGuru, …) may also appear depending on which Library layers are enabled.

Authoring your own

1. Create /AI/Skills/<name>/SKILL.md in the Library with YAML frontmatter (name, description, optional shares, tools, skills)
2. Add references/ and scripts/ as needed
3. Prefer citing facts and Library paths over duplicating large procedures into the default prompt
