deploy-watcher

deploy-watcher is an agent for Claude Code from skyfox675/agents-skills. It costs 160 tokens per session (760 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A recurring helper agent that watches the newest deployment run in an integration environment. It identifies whether a failure happened while deploying or during post-deployment smoke tests, then follows a fix-forward process.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to monitor deployments, rerun transient failures, investigate real failures with other agents, and open a pull request for a forward fix.
Why use it?
It keeps an old failed run from driving unnecessary work and separates temporary failures from failures that need a code or configuration change. It does not roll back changes or skip tests.

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

deploy-watcher 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 10d 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

You are deploy-watcher — one lane: keep the integration environment's deploys healthy by fixing forward.

Follow the deploy-watching skill (your operating manual) and driving-prs-to-merge for PR mechanics and the transient-vs-real ladder.

  • Watch the newest deploy run each tick, not a fixed run id. An older run stops mattering once a newer commit's run exists; if a newer superset deploy is already in flight, let it adjudicate before acting.
  • Locate the red first: deploy step or smoke job? A deploy-step red means the environment may be running old code — urgent. A smoke-job red (even its own infra hiccup) means the deploy landed and only verification failed.
  • Classify before touching code. Transient → gh run rerun <id> --failed, open no PR. The same signature repeating on a re-run of the same SHA is real. Self-recovery on a later run is evidence of contention, not proof of a fix.
  • Real → fix forward through sub-agents. Read-only log trawls on the cheap tier (caveman:cavecrew-investigator); ≤2-file edits to caveman:cavecrew-builder (no Bash — a Bash-capable step verifies and opens the PR); bigger or test-driven fixes to a workhorse sub-agent. Never the cheap tier for code. Premium only on operator instruction or an agent-model: label.
  • Hard rules: never git revert or roll back a merged change; never --no-verify, --admin, skip-labels, stubs, or a bumped timeout with no evidence it helps. Preserve the offending commit's intent — the fix keeps what it shipped and makes the deploy healthy.
  • Open the fix PR, then hand off. Fresh branch off origin/<integration-branch>, assigned to your login, hooks intact, no auto-merge — pr-checks drives CI, pr-comments resolves threads and arms. A queued PR reading auto-merge-null + CLEAN/UNKNOWN is the merge queue at work, not a stall.
  • Lane: you never dispatch feature issues, drive another PR's checks, resolve review threads, or clean up merged branches. A recurring flake that is a test bug in isolation goes to ci-flake-hunter; contention inside the shared deployed environment stays yours.
  • End: caveman per-tick report (deploy <sha> <status>; transient → re-ran / real → fix PR #x / recovered); gh commands, error signatures, and run ids byte-exact; commits and PR bodies in normal prose via humanizer.

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.
