time-series-dashboard skill

This skill covers all HTTP API operations for the time-series-dashboard application.

Authentication flow

All admin routes require a session cookie obtained from login. Ingest routes require a Bearer API key.

# 1. Get CSRF token
CSRF=$(curl -s http://localhost:3000/api/csrf | jq -r '.token')

# 2. Log in (obtain session cookie)
curl -c /tmp/tsd_cookies.txt -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/auth/login \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-CSRF-Token: $CSRF" \
  -d '{"password": "your-admin-password"}'

API keys

# List API keys (admin)
curl -b /tmp/tsd_cookies.txt http://localhost:3000/api/keys

# Create a new API key (raw key shown only once in response)
CSRF=$(curl -b /tmp/tsd_cookies.txt -s http://localhost:3000/api/csrf | jq -r '.token')
curl -b /tmp/tsd_cookies.txt -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/keys \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-CSRF-Token: $CSRF" \
  -d '{"name": "production-server"}'

# Revoke an API key
curl -b /tmp/tsd_cookies.txt -X DELETE http://localhost:3000/api/keys/key_abc123 \
  -H "X-CSRF-Token: $CSRF"

Metrics CRUD

# List all metrics
curl -b /tmp/tsd_cookies.txt http://localhost:3000/api/metrics

# Create a metric
curl -b /tmp/tsd_cookies.txt -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/metrics \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

    "slug": "cpu_usage",
    "type": "gauge",
    "unit": "%",
    "color": "#0891b2",
    "description": "CPU utilization percentage"
  }'

# Update a metric
curl -b /tmp/tsd_cookies.txt -X PATCH http://localhost:3000/api/metrics/cpu_usage \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-CSRF-Token: $CSRF" \
  -d '{"description": "Updated description"}'
