catc-inventory is a skill for Claude Code from automateyournetwork/netclaw. It costs 79 tokens per session (4,889 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool for viewing and filtering network devices managed by Cisco Catalyst Center, including their sites, interfaces, roles, software, and reachability.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find devices by hostname, IP, platform, role, or status; review site hierarchy; inspect interfaces; monitor reachability; and check software or platform details.
Why use it?
It makes device inventories and connectivity checks easier across campuses or data centers, while supporting comparisons with pyATS test data.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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

catc-inventory 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 9d 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.

Catalyst Center Device Inventory and Site Management

Catalyst Center MCP Server

All Catalyst Center tool calls use this invocation pattern:

CCC_HOST=$CCC_HOST CCC_USER=$CCC_USER CCC_PWD=$CCC_PWD python3 -u $CATC_MCP_SCRIPT

Variable shorthand used throughout this document:

CATC_CMD="CCC_HOST=$CCC_HOST CCC_USER=$CCC_USER CCC_PWD=$CCC_PWD python3 -u $CATC_MCP_SCRIPT"

How to Call Tools

Use the $MCP_CALL protocol handler to invoke MCP tools:

CCC_HOST=$CCC_HOST CCC_USER=$CCC_USER CCC_PWD=$CCC_PWD python3 $MCP_CALL "python3 -u $CATC_MCP_SCRIPT" TOOL_NAME 'ARGS_JSON'

When to Use

  • Asset inventory audits and device lifecycle management
  • Verifying device reachability across the campus or data center
  • Site hierarchy reviews before provisioning changes
  • Pre-change baseline: confirm which devices are at a given site
  • Interface-level capacity planning and port utilization analysis
  • Cross-referencing Catalyst Center inventory with pyATS testbed data
  • Compliance checks: platform IDs, software versions, device roles

Available Inventory Tools

1. fetch_devices -- List and Filter Network Devices

Fetches devices from the /dna/intent/api/v1/network-device endpoint with extensive filtering. NEVER call this tool without at least one filter parameter -- unfiltered queries can return massive result sets and are blocked by design.

Parameters (all optional, but at least one required):

Parameter Type Description
hostname List[str] Filter by device hostname(s)
managementIpAddress List[str] Filter by management IP(s)
serialNumber List[str] Filter by serial number(s)

softwareType List[str] Filter by: IOS-XE, NX-OS, IOS, AireOS
series List[str] Filter by product series (e.g., Cisco Catalyst 9300 Series Switches)
locationName List[str] Filter by full site path (e.g., Global/USA/Building1/Floor1)
associatedWlcIp List[str] For APs: filter by WLC management IP
macAddress List[str] Filter by device MAC address(es)
id List[str] Filter by device UUID(s)
roleSource List[str] Filter by role source: MANUAL, AUTO

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.
