Quick Query
Applicable Scenarios
- Query device interface status
- Query routing table
- Query ARP/MAC table
- Simple status checks
Identification Signals
User questions contain: "check", "see", "status", "is it normal", "show", "display"
Execution Strategy
- No write_todos needed, execute directly
- Parse device aliases from knowledge/aliases.md
- Use search_capabilities to find suitable commands
- Execute 1-2 commands
- Keep results concise, return only key information
Examples
Interface Status Query
Trigger: "R1 Gi0/1 status", "show interface status"
Command: show interfaces GigabitEthernet0/1 or show interface brief
Extract: up/down, speed, error counts
IP/MAC Location
Trigger: "What port is 10.1.1.100 on", "Find this MAC"
Process:
show arp | include 10.1.1.100 → Get MACshow mac address-table address <mac> → Get port
Version Information
Trigger: "Device version", "show version"
Command: show version or display version
Extract: Device model, software version, uptime
CPU/Memory Query
Trigger: "CPU usage", "Memory status"
Command: show processes cpu history, show memory statistics
Extract: Current usage, trends
Workflow
User query → Parse alias → search_capabilities → nornir_execute → Format output
Output Format
Keep it concise, highlight key information:
R1 (10.1.1.1) - Interface Status
├─ Gi0/1: up, line protocol up
│ ├─ Input: 1000 Mbps, 0 errors
│ └─ Output: 1000 Mbps, 0 errors
├─ Gi0/2: administratively down
└─ Gi0/3: up, line protocol up
└─ CRC errors: 0
Notes
- Only execute read-only commands
- No configuration changes
- Output must be clear and concise
- If device doesn't exist, confirm with list_devices first
