| description | Manage Consul observability artifacts in hal — Prometheus scrape targets and Grafana dashboards. Use when the user asks to wire Consul metrics into the obs stack or manage Consul monitoring artifacts. |
Consul Observability Skill
hal consul obs manages Consul-specific monitoring artifacts attached to the shared HAL obs stack.
Prerequisites
hal obs status
hal obs create # if not running
Primary Commands
hal consul obs create # register Prometheus target + import Consul Grafana dashboard
hal consul obs update # re-register targets and re-import dashboard (idempotent)
hal consul obs delete # remove Consul Prometheus target and Grafana dashboard
hal consul obs status # show obs artifact registration state for Consul
Key Behaviours
- Consul obs onboarding is explicit and opt-in —
hal consul create does not auto-register monitoring artifacts.
- Official Consul dashboard is auto-downloaded and imported into Grafana folder
HAL.
hal consul obs create fails with a clear message if the obs stack is not running.
Lab Assumptions
- Grafana:
http://grafana.localhost:3000
- Prometheus:
http://prometheus.localhost:9090
- Consul UI:
