ops-daemon-manager

ops-daemon-manager is an agent for Claude Code from Lifecycle-Innovations-Limited/claude-ops. It costs 14 tokens per session (950 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

An operations agent for managing the ops-daemon, a background process that supervises several related services. It uses macOS launchd to start, stop, restart, and monitor that daemon.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start or stop the daemon, restart it, inspect overall or per-service health, find pending actions, and follow daemon logs.
Why use it?
It centralizes service control and combines individual service health into one status view, making failures and required actions easier to find.

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 B, and why

ops-daemon-manager scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 6d 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.

Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Overview

The ops-daemon is a unified background process manager (scripts/ops-daemon.sh) that supervises all claude-ops background services. It replaces per-service launchd agents with a single com.claude-ops.daemon launchd unit.

Services are configured in ~/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace/daemon-services.json. Health is aggregated to ~/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace/daemon-health.json.

Commands

Start daemon

launchctl bootstrap gui/$(id -u) ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.claude-ops.daemon.plist

Stop daemon

launchctl bootout gui/$(id -u)/com.claude-ops.daemon

Restart daemon

launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.claude-ops.daemon

Check overall health

cat ~/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace/daemon-health.json

Check service statuses

cat ~/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace/daemon-health.json | jq '.services'

Check for pending actions (e.g. reauth needed)

cat ~/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace/daemon-health.json | jq '.action_needed'

Tail daemon log

tail -f ~/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace/logs/ops-daemon.log

Tail a specific service log

tail -f ~/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace/logs/<service-name>.log

Action Needed

When a service requires user intervention (e.g. whatsapp-bridge restart), action_needed is set:

{
  "action_needed": { "service": "whatsapp-bridge", "action": "restart" }
}

Any ops skill that reads daemon-health.json should surface this to the user immediately.

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.
