name	consul-obs
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: http://consul.localhost:8500
