Aligns the built-in skills reference with the current skill registry (allow_lists.ts) in Kibana: - Add the 9.5 built-in skills across Platform, Streams and significant events, Security, Observability, and Elasticsearch - Handle renames and consolidations cumulatively with applies_to badges (streams-exploration to streams-management; hybrid-search, semantic-search, and vector-database consolidated into search.vector-hybrid-search) - Move workflow-authoring to GA in 9.5 with an inline preview 9.4 note - Collapse each skill's assigned tools into a dropdown to reduce noise - Fix a stale skill example link in skills.md Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

@leemthompo check #7172 |
- Fix cases-management tool IDs to platform.core.cases.* (were platform.cases.*) - Mark rule-management action-policy tool and dashboard-management dashboard tool as skill-scoped inline tools, not built-in registry tools Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Control is agentBuilder:tracing:enabled (on by default), not the experimental features flag (per kibana #276174) - Note dashboard-building capability and that it's part of the default agent Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Brand-new capabilities ship as technical preview, so tag skills that debut in 9.5 as preview 9.5 / serverless preview: discover-data-analysis, cases-management, rule-management, significant-events-management, significant-events-onboarding, knowledge-indicators-management, ki-identification-management, streams-gap-detection, skill-authoring, observability.service-map, siem-readiness, and search.elasticsearch-tutorial. Left as ga 9.5+: streams-management and search.vector-hybrid-search (successors of skills marked ga 9.4, removed 9.5 — flagging preview here would misrepresent a GA capability as a downgrade), and workflow-authoring and automatic_troubleshooting (which already existed as preview in 9.4).

👋 This PR updates the built-in skills reference for 9.5. If you added one of the new skills below, could you sanity-check its entry — description, assigned tools (built-in vs skill-scoped inline), and availability/gating?
Thanks! |

@leemthompo has 9.5 been cut for release? i think the skill_authoring_skill is now called skill_management_skill https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/271463/changes#diff-c0bcb0f583598be2dbf7d273ffc206d7eb932385e7ce3e5945354a37686e2ea1 based on this change
