description	Use ae-cli for AE/TE analysis-side data questions, asset operations, and asset governance: reports, analysis boards, BI dashboards, ad-hoc models, drilldown, detail data, alerts, clusters, tags, metrics, metadata, project configuration, tracking plans, governance asset lists/rules/lineage/impact/dependency, batch asset operations, projects, and resource links. Use when the user asks to query data, explain a change, export evidence, or inspect/create/update/govern analysis assets.

ae-analysis

This is the single entry skill for analysis intent and command execution.

Route before reading

1. Map the request to a command family before opening any reference.
   • Known family: open only its dedicated reference. For example, a retention request goes directly to references/adhoc_run.md plus the retention section of references/ai_models.md.
   • Unknown family: search references/command_index.md with rg or an equivalent text-search tool and keep only the matching rows. command_index.md is a search-only fallback; never open it with a whole-file read or print the entire file.
2. Read the selected command's dedicated reference before composing it:
   • event list -> references/event_list.md
   • analysis dashboard list -> references/dashboard_list.md
   • personal-semantic-preference list -> references/personal_semantic_preference_list.md
   • replace hyphens with underscores in gateway filenames.
3. For an AI-facing ad-hoc definition, also read references/ai_models.md.
4. For cluster/tag --definition-request, also read the matching references/user_cluster_models.md or references/user_tag_models.md. Shared primitives live in references/audience_models.md.
5. For analysis data retrieval, choose run or export using references/analysis_data_retrieval.md.
6. When an AI-QP compile failure contains slot_kind, allowed_resource_types, search_targets, and next_action, read and follow metadata_resolution.md.

Routing is complete when one command family and its dedicated references are selected. The generated command index is exhaustive and must stay out of model context except for matching search rows. This file contains routing and workflow rules only; do not duplicate a hand-maintained command inventory here.

Boundaries and priority

Use this skill for these CLI services:

• analysis: reports, dashboards, BI panels, ad-hoc analysis, drilldown, detail data, alerts, clusters, tags, and async runs/artifacts.
• analysis-meta: gateway metadata assets, events, properties, virtual metadata, metrics, data tables, exchange rules, and super metadata.
• analysis-governance: gateway asset governance operations, including governed asset lists/exports, lineage, dependency, impact, query history, rule schema/list/create/update/delete, batch asset actions, and operation records. Use this service for asset governance workflows, not for metadata event/property/metric CRUD.
• tracking: gateway tracking plan, checking, ingest, live-data, and event blacklist operations.
• personal-semantic-preference: current user's project-scoped personal semantic preferences. Use it as agent context before resolving ambiguous business wording, asset choices, or recurring user preferences.

For metadata gateway detail outside the commands in the generated index, use the metadata skill. For Engage, DataOps, or Community work, use the corresponding skill.

Use ae-cli as the only execution path for this skill. If a command is missing, unsupported, not implemented, or a capability gap is confirmed, report the gap and stop or provide framework-level guidance; do not switch to direct MCP execution. Repeated failures are not evidence of a capability gap until parameters, types, time formats, permissions, timeout choice, and payload construction have been checked. A validation error or need_clarification is a reason to correct the input, not to switch tools.

For tags and audience clusters, use the native analysis user-tag ... and analysis user-cluster ... gateway commands.

Global AE CLI Rules

Command forms:

ae-cli analysis <resource> <action> [options]
ae-cli analysis-meta <resource> <action> [options]
ae-cli analysis-governance <resource> <action> [options]
ae-cli tracking <resource> <action> [options]
ae-cli capability search|inspect|validate|dry-run|run [options]

• Gateway commands use kebab-case flags such as --project-id; the CLI sends snake_case JSON.
• JSON values must be JSON string literals.
• Global flags include --host, --format json|table, --jq, --validate, --dry-run, and --yes. Use --validate alone to normalize complex capability input; use --dry-run alone for execution or risk preview.
• JSON is the default machine-readable output. On failure, preserve the structured error and non-zero exit.
• CRITICAL — Host compat (do this first): After each ae-cli run, check stderr and _notice.host_compat. If either is present, your reply MUST open with a short ⚠️ version warning and quote the npm i -g / npx skills add (or update-cluster) lines verbatim, then present the business result. Never answer with only a project/table summary when a host_compat notice exists. Soft tip; ok: true can still carry the notice.
• Never invent command names, flags, payload fields, projects, resource IDs, asset names, event/property names, metric definitions, or dates.
• 中文时间表达必须按固定语义映射：最近7天/近7天 -> mode=recent -> QP recentDay=0-7，含今天；过去7天/前7天 -> mode=previous -> QP recentDay=1-7，不含今天。用户明确说明是否包含今天时，以该说明为准。完整映射见 references/ai_models.md。

CAPABILITY_NOT_FOUND means the current host does not expose that gateway capability; changing parameters will not fix it. A permission error stops any dependent chain. A 404 while inspecting an async run is a route/deployment failure; do not poll the same ID forever.

Interpret gateway envelopes by state:

• ok: true with empty data is success and means no matching data. Never relabel an empty report/dashboard result as query failure.
• ok: true with meta.partial: true is partial success. Use the successful data and explicitly report meta.failures; do not fail the whole batch or hide failed items.
• ok: false is failure. Preserve error.code, error.message, and meta.request_id, meta.invocation_id, meta.stage, and meta.failures when present.
• Do not retry an unchanged failed command or guess alternative payload shapes. Retry only after applying concrete validation/clarification guidance or correcting a verified transient condition.

For every gateway command that exposes --request-id, ae-cli generates a request_id and prints it to stderr before dispatch when the caller omits it. Preserve that ID with the final envelope and diagnostics. Pass an explicit --request-id cli_<32 lowercase hex> only when a caller-owned correlation ID is required.

Execution invariants

• Probe the first page exactly once. Verify ok, the documented data shape, and the effective limit before starting a pagination loop.
• For paginated directory results, continue only with the returned next_offset while has_more is true. Never calculate a speculative offset, repeat the current page, or declare the list complete before has_more is false.
• Track the normalized command, input, and announced request_id for every invocation. Never resubmit an identical invocation while it is still in flight; wait for the current process, or inspect its returned run_id when it is asynchronous.
• Retry only the items named in meta.failures, and only when their retryable value and next_action permit it. Never retry successful or empty items from the same batch.
• For black-box coverage audits, maintain an explicit module × model × outcome matrix. Mark coverage complete only from observed responses; missing assets, permissions, or fixtures are environment gaps, not passing coverage.

Mandatory routing

Product terminology gate

• The Chinese product term 看板 means an analysis board backed by saved reports. Route it to ae-cli analysis dashboard ... and capability IDs under analysis.dashboard.*.
• The Chinese product terms 仪表盘 and BI 仪表盘 mean a BI dashboard with worksheets, charts, and pages. Route them to ae-cli analysis bi-panel ... and capability IDs under analysis.bi_panel.*.
• These assets are not aliases. Never substitute an analysis board for a BI dashboard, or a BI dashboard for an analysis board.
• The standalone English word dashboard is ambiguous in this product. Before a write, ask whether the user means an analysis board (看板) or a BI dashboard (仪表盘) unless the surrounding context already makes the product asset explicit.
• If the requested BI-panel capability is unavailable or unauthorized, report that constraint. Do not fall back to creating an analysis board.

Project gate

Before a project-scoped command:

1. Reuse a project only when its ID and host/environment were already verified in the same continuous conversation.
2. Otherwise call project info list and resolve the supplied ID/name.
3. If there are multiple plausible projects, the host is unclear, or no project matches, show the candidates and ask; never guess.
4. Re-verify after the user changes project, host, or environment.

Project Semantics

Before answering project-scoped analysis or asset-governance requests, call ae-cli project-semantic list --project-id <project_id> once after the project is resolved. This is the governed project semantic catalog. The list is already filtered to active, fresh project semantics and sorted by heat, so do not page or search the database yourself.

If one project semantic is actually adopted to interpret the user's wording, asset selection, metric definition, calculation convention, or project-wide business rule, fetch it with ae-cli project-semantic get --project-id <project_id> --id <semantic_id> --mark-used. Do not pass --mark-used for project semantics that were only inspected or rejected.

For project semantic recommendation, switch to the ae-project-semantic skill. This skill only consumes published project semantics during analysis tasks.

Published project semantics are the formal project-wide authority. A current-turn user instruction may request a different analysis, but the result must be labeled as an explicit non-formal deviation rather than silently replacing the published definition.

Personal Semantic Preferences

Before answering project-scoped analysis or asset-governance requests, call ae-cli personal-semantic-preference list --project-id <project_id> once per host, authenticated user, project, and conversation after the project is resolved. Keep that lightweight directory in conversation context; do not page it, search the database, or call list again for each question. The backend returns at most 200 entries using HOT_160_PLUS_RECENT_40 and may return fewer to keep the payload within its size limit.

Use the returned compact catalog only as context. If one item is actually adopted to interpret the user's wording, asset selection, metric preference, or output style, fetch it with ae-cli personal-semantic-preference get --project-id <project_id> --id <preference_id> --mark-used. This also applies when the matched item is being used as the target for an update. Do not pass --mark-used for items that were only inspected or rejected.

Apply the two catalogs by authority and purpose, not as one flat ranking. Published project semantics define the formal business meaning. Personal semantics supply the current user's defaults, interpretation corrections, asset choices, and output preferences where they do not conflict. If a personal semantic conflicts with a published project semantic, use the project semantic for the formal result and explicitly disclose the difference; never silently overwrite the personal record. If the user explicitly requests the personal alternative for the current task, execute it as a labeled non-formal variation.

The Agent owns the personal preference capture trigger. Choose context_type by meaning:

• preference: durable interpretation or output preference without an exact asset binding.
• asset_context: durable user wording or intent bound to one or more exact project assets. Send the complete ordered resource_refs array; each item has resource_type, string resource_key, and display_name. This identity is generic across reports, dashboards, events, properties, metrics, tags, clusters, data tables, and future asset types.
• experience: a confirmed reusable work method without an exact asset binding.
• background: stable personal context without an exact asset binding.

Any stable choice of a concrete asset, including an event-selection scenario, must use asset_context; do not encode asset IDs only in prose. During a project task, collect durable current-user preferences, stable interpretation corrections, reusable asset-selection choices, recurring output preferences, and current-user working definitions that have not become approved project semantics. A working definition remains eligible for personal storage even when it would also benefit other project users. Store it only as the current user's preference; never describe it as approved project authority or copy a bound asset definition into its content. Keep future governance or lifecycle instructions out of the stored content. Do not save transient task details, one-off analysis results, company knowledge, standalone metadata facts, reports, or dashboards as personal preferences.

An explicit stable statement, correction, or confirmation that passes that evidence gate authorizes personal-semantic-preference add or update without a second "save" confirmation. Compare against the already loaded catalog first; when one existing preference matches, fetch it with --mark-used, update that existing preference, and avoid creating a duplicate. Otherwise add a new one. An explicit instruction not to retain it always wins. Delete remains high risk and requires explicit user confirmation.

Personal capture and project recommendation are independent. Save or update the personal semantic first when its evidence gate is met. If the same content looks reusable as a formal project-wide definition, finish the current task and then ask whether the user wants to recommend it as a project semantic candidate. Do not make project recommendation a prerequisite for personal capture, do not submit a candidate without that user choice, and never approve or publish on behalf of an ordinary user.

After a successful add, update, or delete, merge that response into the conversation's cached directory locally. Do not call list again merely to observe the write.

When a later published project semantic matches a personal semantic, treat the project semantic as formal and allow the personal record to become redundant, expire, or merge through the supported lifecycle. When they conflict, keep the project semantic formal, disclose the conflict, and preserve the personal record unless the user explicitly changes or deletes it. These are consumption and lifecycle rules; do not append them to the stored personal semantic content.

Stale or expired preferences are automatically hidden by list filtering and backend maintenance. Do not look for or invent a separate command for that behavior.

C. FUZZY_SEARCH_FALLBACK

For saved-asset operations on reports, dashboards, metrics, clusters, tags, and alerts, use the relevant list/search command first unless an exact ID or canonical asset name was already verified. For saved assets outside the analysis metadata catalog, broaden the keyword batch up to two times, then list all candidates. If no resource exists, stop instead of fabricating one.

For ordinary event, property, metric, cluster, and tag metadata discovery, keep one discovery budget per host, project, authenticated principal, and Agent conversation. Put the user's phrase and its useful synonyms in one --queries JSON array; matching is OR across at most 20 keywords. A successful remote search round with no confirmable candidate consumes one miss. A candidate stops discovery and requires user confirmation; it is not a miss. Validation, permission, network, and server errors are failures: they do not consume the budget and must not trigger a full export. After at most two ordinary miss rounds, the third remote discovery round must be one aggregate analysis-meta catalog list using the accumulated deduplicated queries and the union of applicable resource types. If that aggregate search is still unresolved, export the complete unified catalog exactly once and reuse it locally as defined in metadata_resolution.md. Once a valid complete catalog exists, do not call online resource-specific metadata list/search commands or analysis-meta catalog list|export again in that scope.

Only when explicitly complete event, property, metric, cluster, or tag metadata is needed, use that resource's export --output <temporary_path>/<resource> command. Event/property/metric exports use .json; cluster/tag exports use .jsonl and an integrity sidecar. Search the temporary file locally and keep the full rows out of model context. Do not page repeatedly to synthesize a complete catalog.

Do not pre-list events or properties before constructing an AI-facing intent model. Pass the user's wording directly in definition; the backend resolves it and returns resolved evidence. Call event/property metadata commands only when the user explicitly asks to inspect metadata, a structured compiler error instructs next_action=search_candidates, or the compiler reports an explicit metadata-resolution capability gap. When compiler candidates already exist, ask the user to confirm without another metadata call. If the user explicitly rejects every candidate for that path, treat the rejected set as exhausted and continue through the one aggregate-search workflow in metadata_resolution.md; do not terminate the original task or repeat the rejected candidates.

The ordinary discovery budget does not replace the entry path for structured AI-QP metadata failures. For those failures, allowed_resource_types is authoritative: collect the whole compiler error array and follow the one aggregate online search, optional full-catalog, conversation-reuse workflow in metadata_resolution.md. Never use a candidate from either path without user confirmation.

Existing business asset before ad-hoc

When the request can map to a saved business definition:

1. Extract metric, dimensions, filters, time window, and comparison semantics.
2. Search reports; use dashboard search only to discover candidate embedded reports.
3. Before querying a selected dashboard's report data, call analysis dashboard get exactly once with the verified project and dashboard IDs. Inspect effective_settings and filter_config; dashboard default, dashboard business, and space business filters are already applied and call-time filters add AND conditions. Honor the saved fixed time unless the user explicitly supplies a supported time override. Preserve non-empty location.folder_name, dashboard_name, remark, and notes[].note_title/description as authored dashboard context for all results from that dashboard. Do not repeat the detail call per report.
4. Read the candidate definition and verify semantic equality, not merely a similar name.
5. Use report/dashboard data when the definition matches.
6. Use analysis adhoc run|export when no definition matches, the user explicitly requests ad-hoc exploration, or custom grouping/filtering is required.

Do not call removed QP builders or schema helpers for ad-hoc analysis. --definition is the AI-facing contract from ai_models.md, not raw QP or a frontend DTO.

Result data versus metadata

• Metric value, trend, comparison, or anomaly -> saved report/dashboard first, then ad-hoc data.
• Metric definition search/create/update -> metadata commands.
• Event/entity rows -> event-detail run|export or entity-detail run|export.
• Events/entities from a query result -> pass the original --project-id, follow the returned synchronous query_context_id and compact source action summary, then call analysis query-context get for full coordinate options; never reconstruct raw QP or use export rows as coordinates.
• Cluster/tag definition -> matching gateway cluster/tag commands and matching model reference.
• Tag/cluster candidate values, including requests phrased as "latest version" or "latest result" -> resolve the exact asset, then use analysis filter-value list with cluster_date_policy=LATEST. This means the latest computed data snapshot, never a definition or configuration release; do not invent version lists, version IDs, draft states, or publish states.
• Alert/configuration/tracking-plan requests -> the dedicated gateway command reference from the index.

Run, export, and follow-up

• run is a bounded inline preview for work that can complete within the synchronous limits. Agents should normally pass --preview-rows 100; omitting it deliberately uses the model's current cluster-configured synchronous limit. User tag/cluster member list commands are the exception: omission defaults to 1000 rows, matching the UI member query.
• export is for complete, unknown-size, over-limit, or long-running results. It returns run_id and artifact_id.
• Drilldown event/entity/user-event exports are csv.gz full-download streams bounded by model_full_download_limit; never pass or simulate limit, offset, page_num, or page_size.
• Plain export submits only. Add --wait to wait for terminal state, or --output <file> to wait and atomically stream the completed artifact; --output implies wait. Existing files require explicit --force.
• Resume detached or interrupted work with analysis run wait --run-id <run_id> [--output <file>]. Local interruption never cancels the remote run; cancel only through the explicit analysis query cancel command.
• analysis run inspect and analysis artifact download remain primitive lifecycle commands. Do not call raw lifecycle URLs. Use --wait-timeout-seconds only to bound local waiting; it never changes or cancels the remote runtime.
• Drilldown requires the original --project-id, a synchronous preview context, and row/column/metric coordinate options fetched with analysis query-context get. Common rejects a project ID that does not match the stored context. If the context/options are absent or the action is not advertised, report that drilldown/result-cluster creation is unavailable.

Writes and destructive operations

Write only with explicit user intent. Use --validate alone while correcting complex input, or --dry-run alone to inspect the resolved request and execution impact; do not stack both by default. Execute read and ordinary write commands without --yes. For high-risk-write, dry-run first, summarize the target and impact, wait for explicit user confirmation, and only then execute the unchanged command with --yes.

Project-space and folder create/delete/share are L3 capabilities rather than curated analysis commands. Read the matching command reference, then use ae-cli capability inspect|dry-run|run; discover *.members through capability search|inspect|run and references/analysis_gateway_assets.md. For risk=high-risk-write, dry-run first, summarize the impact, and execute with --yes only after a later explicit confirmation.

After a successful create/update, if a resource ID and supported resource type are available, call analysis-meta asset url-get and return the link. Explicitly state when link generation is skipped because no resource ID exists or when it fails.

Analysis workflow

For a data question:

1. Clarify only missing facts that change the query: KPI, scope, time window, dimensions, filters, and baseline.
2. Pass the project gate.
3. For AI-facing intent models, let the backend resolve event/property wording and consume resolved; discover metadata directly only for explicit metadata inspection, compiler clarification, or a reported resolution capability gap.
4. Check existing reports/dashboards when applicable.
5. Run or export one reproducible query path.
6. For anomalies, compare consistent scopes, rank drivers, then drill down to users/events only when result contexts permit it.
7. Return conclusion, evidence, limitations, and a concrete next action.

For attribution, use the algorithms and self-checks in references/analysis_interpretation.md. The main driver is determined by absolute contribution, not the largest relative growth rate.

Output requirements

• Lead with the conclusion.
• Include the metric, time window, dimension/filter scope, value, and baseline needed to reproduce it.
• Separate observed evidence from inferred causes and state uncertainty.
• For attribution, include total absolute/percentage change and dimension contributions sorted by absolute delta; verify the contribution sum.
• For saved dashboard answers, use non-empty location.folder_name, dashboard_name, remark, and notes[].note_title/description to establish business scope. Label folder names and notes as authored context, separately from observed query evidence.
• Do not return an unexplained raw table.
• State missing data, definition, permission, or capability constraints explicitly.

Maintenance

When commands change, update source command metadata and the dedicated reference, then run:

npm run generate:analysis-skill
npm run verify:analysis-skill
npm run verify:analysis-tools

The verification fails for missing command references, retired/orphan command references, or a stale generated index.
