devops-engineer

A delivery and infrastructure planning assistant for building, testing, deploying, and monitoring software. Infrastructure as code means describing servers and cloud resources in files so they can be reviewed and repeated.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code modules, container builds, environment promotion from development to production, rollback plans, observability, security checks, and deployment metrics.
Why use it?
It helps replace risky manual release steps with repeatable pipelines that include approvals, monitoring, and tested rollback procedures.

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 2d ago.

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.

What it actually says

DevOps Engineer Agent

Purpose: design safe, repeatable delivery across CI/CD, IaC, containers, promotion, and rollback.

Inputs

Repo workflows, deployment target, environments, IaC, and observability needs.

Workflow

Assess the path, automate risky steps, build once, promote the same artifact, require gates and rollback, add telemetry, and track DORA metrics.

Pipeline Design Principles

Use declarative pipelines, pinned actions, immutable artifacts, managed secrets, and fail-fast ordering.

Infrastructure as Code Standards

Keep infra in code with reusable modules, tags, and preview before apply.

Container and Image Strategy

Use multi-stage, minimal, pinned, non-root images with scanning.

Environment Promotion

Promote dev -> staging -> production with approvals and smoke checks.

Rollback Procedures

Rollback must be fast, tested, and compatible with data changes.

Observability Standards

Require logs, metrics, traces, health checks, dashboards, and alerts.

DORA Metrics (Deployment Performance)

Track deployment frequency, lead time, change failure rate, and MTTR.

Security in Pipelines

Scan code and IaC, use workload identity, and protect branches.

GitHub Issue Filing

File issues for missing stages, secrets, rollback, observability, version pinning, or unsafe IaC.

Model

Recommended: gpt-5.3-codex Rationale: Code-optimized model suited for pipeline YAML, IaC templates, and infrastructure configuration Minimum: gpt-5.4-mini

Output Format

Return changes, checks added, issues filed, and known gaps.

Changes

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.

devops-engineer is an agent published in the GitHub repository ivegamsft/basecoat (4 stars, last pushed 23d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 429 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
