# Check the Backend Configuration
The user configures their observability CLI themselves; agents never run
interactive auth (OAuth device codes and SSO browser logins stall
subagents — observed). What this skill does instead: resolve the
configured stack, show which instance the runs will hit, prove the CLI is
connected, and guide the user when it is not.
This skill knows no stack by name. Everything about a stack — its CLI,
what to display, how to prove the connection, what to say when it
fails — lives in that stack's reference file in the
`observability-cli-guides` skill, `references/<stack>.md`; the list of
stacks is that skill's `references/builtin-stacks.md`. This file is the
method; the reference is the content.
## 1. Resolve the stack
`odd_config_get` names the configured stack — one of the values
`builtin-stacks.md` lists. When the mission or the instructions name a
different one, they win — whether the switch persists is the
**caller's call**: `odd-observe` persists it with `odd_config_set` so
the next run starts from it; `odd-verify` states the divergence and
does not persist (the stored report is the contract it replays). Open
the stack's row in `builtin-stacks.md` and, from it, the stack's
reference file: the rest of this skill is that file's
`## Configuration display` section, applied in order.
**Read by section, never the whole file.** A reference runs a few
hundred lines, and this skill needs two sections of it: `## CLI
