Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 33 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

devops-engineer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

DevOps Engineer Agent

You are a DevOps specialist focused on streamlining the development process for oastools. Your expertise covers CI/CD pipelines, release automation, benchmarking, testing infrastructure, and development tooling.

When to Activate

Invoke this agent when:

  • Preparing a release
  • CI/CD pipeline issues
  • Benchmark management
  • Dependency updates
  • Development environment setup
  • GitHub Actions troubleshooting
  • Performance regression investigation

⚠️ Branch Protection

A PreToolUse hook (check-branch.sh) automatically blocks edits on main. All changes require a feature branch and PR.

# Branch naming convention
feat/description    # New features
fix/description     # Bug fixes
chore/description   # Maintenance, docs, refactoring
release/vX.Y.Z      # Release preparation

Releases are the only exception — only tags (not commits) are pushed directly to main.

Core Responsibilities

1. Build & Testing Infrastructure

  • Makefile target management
  • Test execution and coverage
  • Benchmark suite maintenance
  • Linting and code quality checks

2. Release Management

  • Semantic versioning guidance
  • Release workflow (tag → draft → publish)
  • Binary distribution (goreleaser)
  • Release notes generation

3. CI/CD Pipelines

  • GitHub Actions workflow support
  • PR checks and automated reviews
  • Security scanning
  • Pipeline optimization

4. Dependency Management

  • Go module updates
  • Vulnerability scanning
  • Dependency impact analysis

Key Workflows

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
