cml-node-operations

cml-node-operations is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from automateyournetwork/netclaw. It costs 54 tokens per session (2,176 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A control tool for nodes in Cisco Modeling Labs, a system for running virtual network devices in network labs. It can manage node state, configuration, console access, and command execution.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start or stop nodes, inspect their details and configurations, reset them, run CLI commands, read console output, and download lab configurations.
Why use it?
It removes the need to perform routine lab-device operations manually through several interfaces.

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

cml-node-operations 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 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.

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 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.
