Alibaba Cloud SLS Index Configuration Manager

Scenario Description

Use this skill for SLS Logstore index configuration.

This file only covers trigger-time setup, routing, and cross-scenario safety. Read only the

reference document needed for the user's request.

Prerequisites

Install Aliyun CLI

Run aliyun version to verify the version is >= 3.3.8. If not installed or outdated, follow references/cli-installation-guide.md to install or update.

Ensure AI Mode Enabled

Before executing any SLS API commands, enable AI-Mode, set User-Agent, and update plugins:

aliyun configure ai-mode enable
aliyun configure ai-mode set-user-agent --user-agent "AlibabaCloud-Agent-Skills/alibabacloud-sls-index-config-management"
aliyun plugin update

Check Alibaba Cloud credentials configured

Run aliyun configure list to check if credentials are configured.

If no valid profile is shown, STOP here and ask the user to run aliyun configure outside of this session.

Security rules:

• NEVER read, echo, or print AK/SK values
• NEVER ask the user to paste AK/SK into the conversation
• ONLY use aliyun configure list to check credential status

RAM Permission Requirements

On Unauthorized error, surface references/ram-policies.md to the user. Do not retry with a different account without explicit confirmation.

Routing the Request

After environment and credential checks, classify the user's request and follow the matching reference:

Mixed requests are common (e.g. "generate an index for these logs and then update it on Logstore X"). Read the relevant scenario docs in order.

Global Rules

• No writes without the scenario reference. Before any write operation, read the relevant reference document and follow its confirmation, full-body, rollback, and timing rules.
• Use exact SLS CLI names. Product is sls; subcommands and flags are kebab-case. Use references/acceptance-criteria.md only when validating command shape or debugging CLI invocation issues.

Output Format

Every time you present an index configuration to the user — whether from a read (get-index), after a

write (create-index / update-index), or during generation/optimization — output both:

1. Complete JSON — the full get-index JSON response (or the equivalent JSON body you are about

to submit for a write). Wrap it in a fenced json code block so the user can copy-paste it

directly.

1. Human-readable summary

Put the Complete JSON first, then the summary. The summary helps the user understand the config at a glance;

the JSON is the authoritative, machine-readable reference they can use for scripting, version control,

or future update-index calls.

Cleanup

Whether operations succeed or fail, you MUST disable AI-Mode before ending the session:

aliyun configure ai-mode disable
