Splunk Observability AI Agent Monitoring Setup

Overview

Use this skill to build a render-first setup plan for Splunk AI Agent Monitoring and adjacent AI Infrastructure Monitoring. The skill owns orchestration, validation, coverage reporting, and safe delegation; it does not mark UI-only workflows as API-applied.

The renderer always emits a coverage report. Treat coverage-report.json as the source of truth for what is delegated_apply, render, deeplink, handoff, or not_applicable.

Safety Rules

• Never ask for Splunk Observability tokens, Splunk Platform passwords, HEC tokens, LLM API keys, or client secrets in conversation.
• Never pass secrets directly on the command line or as environment-variable prefixes.
• Use file-based secrets only, such as SPLUNK_O11Y_TOKEN_FILE, --o11y-token-file, --platform-hec-token-file, or the delegated skill's file flags.
• Default prompt and response content capture to off.
• Require explicit accept flags before rendering content capture or LLM-as-judge evaluation env vars.
• Do not promise PII redaction, hashing, or truncation. The upstream GenAI utility marks those helpers as not implemented.

Primary Workflow

1. Start from template.example, or create a small JSON/YAML spec with the target realm, collector mode, agent frameworks, and AI infrastructure products. For Kubernetes runtime handoffs, set deployment.workload_kind, deployment.workload_namespace, deployment.workload_name, and deployment.container_name to the exact application workload and container that should receive the environment variables.

2. Render and validate:

   bash skills/splunk-observability-ai-agent-monitoring-setup/scripts/setup.sh \
     --render \
     --validate \
     --spec skills/splunk-observability-ai-agent-monitoring-setup/template.example \
     --output-dir splunk-observability-ai-agent-monitoring-rendered
   

3. Review the generated files:

   • coverage-report.json and coverage-report.md
   • apply-plan.json
   • runtime/python.env and runtime/requirements.txt
   • collector/values-ai-agent-monitoring.yaml
   • handoff.md and doctor-report.md

4. Apply only when explicitly requested:

   bash skills/splunk-observability-ai-agent-monitoring-setup/scripts/setup.sh \
     --apply collector,hec,loc \
     --spec my-ai-agent-monitoring.json \
     --o11y-token-file /tmp/splunk_o11y_token
   

Apply Model

Supported --apply sections are:

• collector delegates to splunk-observability-otel-collector-setup using --apply-k8s or --apply-linux.
• hec delegates to splunk-hec-service-setup --phase apply.
• loc delegates to splunk-observability-cloud-integration-setup --apply log_observer_connect; the Observability UI connection wizard remains deeplink.
• python-runtime and kubernetes-runtime render deterministic application changes and print operator handoffs because the skill does not own the user's application repository or cluster workloads.
• ai-infra-collector delegates to existing product skills when available, such as Cisco AI PODs and NVIDIA GPU, otherwise renders collector overlay handoffs.
• dashboards delegates to splunk-observability-dashboard-builder.
• detectors delegates to splunk-observability-native-ops.

Validation Rules

Validation must fail for:

• send_otlp_histograms: false, because the Agents page requires histogram metrics.
• Prompt/response content capture without --accept-content-capture or accept_content_capture: true.
• Instrumentation-side evaluations without --accept-evaluation-cost or accept_evaluation_cost: true.
• OpenAI evaluations without OTEL_INSTRUMENTATION_GENAI_EVALS_SEPARATE_PROCESS=true.
• Unsupported package names such as splunk-otel-instrumentation-openai-v2 or splunk-otel-instrumentation-vertexai.
• Selected packages whose Python requirement exceeds the declared runtime version.

References

• Read reference.md for the CLI and generated artifact contract.
• Read references/coverage.md when changing coverage status or adding product support.
• Read references/package-catalog.md before changing package names, Python floors, or framework mappings.
• Read references/apply-and-safety.md before changing live apply behavior.
• Read references/troubleshooting.md when updating doctor output.
