The Axiom alerting skill helps AI agents manage Axiom alerting end-to-end:
  • Notifier management: Create, update, list, and delete notifiers for email, Slack, and webhooks
  • Monitor lifecycle: Create, update, inspect, and delete monitors for threshold, match-event, and anomaly workflows
  • Validation workflow: Check monitor history and tune alert behavior based on real execution outcomes
  • Operational guardrails: Structured guidance for payload validation, monitor field choices, and troubleshooting API errors

​
Prerequisites

​
Install Axiom Skills

Install all Axiom skills at once for Claude Code, Cursor, and other Claude-compatible agents: 
npx skills add axiomhq/skills

​
Configure Axiom credentials

All Axiom Skills share the same credential configuration. Create a configuration file at ~/.axiom.toml:
~/.axiom.toml
[deployments.dev]
url = "https://api.axiom.co"
token = "API_TOKEN"
org_id = "ORGANIZATION_ID"
edge_url = "AXIOM_DOMAIN"
Replace API_TOKEN with the Axiom API token you have generated. For added security, store the API token in an environment variable.Replace ORGANIZATION_ID with your organization ID. For more information, see Determine organization ID.Replace AXIOM_DOMAIN with the base domain of your edge deployment. For more information, see Edge deployments.For token creation and scoping guidance, see Token hygiene for AI agents.

​
Use Axiom alerting skill

The Axiom alerting skill activates automatically when you ask your AI agent to:
  • Create or manage monitors and notifiers
  • Route alerts to the right destination
  • Validate monitor behavior and alert noise
  • Maintain and tune existing alert configurations
Example prompts:
  • “Create a monitor that alerts when error count exceeds 100 in 5 minutes”
  • “List available notifiers and create a Slack notifier for on-call alerts”
  • “Show monitor history for the last day and help tune alert thresholds”
  • “Update this monitor to reduce noisy alerts with N-of-M triggering”
