fortigate-ops

fortigate-ops is a skill for Claude Code from automateyournetwork/netclaw. It costs 86 tokens per session (1,525 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A read-only tool for checking the live state of FortiGate firewalls, the devices that enforce network security rules. It reports system details, interfaces, routes, VPN tunnel phases, high-availability members, virtual domains, and differences from FortiManager.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check device status, routing, interfaces, IPsec VPN tunnels, high-availability state, virtual-domain scope, and configuration drift.
Why use it?
It answers what a firewall is doing now instead of what the central manager intended it to do. This avoids treating an unreachable or out-of-date device as healthy based only on its planned configuration.

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

fortigate-ops 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 5d 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.

FortiGate Operations — the device plane

MCP Server

  • Server: fortinet-mcp (NetClaw-authored, spec 080 / roadmap R3)
  • Command: $FORTINET_MCP_CMD
  • Transport: stdio · FortiOS REST API, bearer token
  • Requires: FORTIGATE_HOST, FORTIGATE_API_TOKEN
  • Mode: read-only — this skill has no write path at all

The distinction this skill exists to protect

A FortiGate knows what it is doing. It does not know what it was supposed to do.

Question Plane Skill
"Is the tunnel up? What's in the routing table?" device this skill
"What policy is intended across the estate?" manager fortimanager-ops
"Has anything ever matched this rule?" analyzer fortianalyzer-ops
"Run a raw FortiOS CLI command" CLI multivendor-raw-cli (spec 076)

If a device does not answer, this skill reports that it did not answer. It never substitutes FortiManager's intended configuration as though it were observed state — that would turn "the box is unreachable" into a confident, wrong description of a box nobody can see.

Tools (6, all read-only)

Tool What it answers
fgt_system_status Hostname, serial, version, HA mode, which member answered
fgt_list_interfaces Interfaces: link, addressing, speed, error counters, per VDOM
fgt_get_routes Routing table as observed, optional protocol filter
fgt_vpn_tunnels IPsec tunnels — phase 1 and phase 2 separately
fgt_get_policies Firewall policy as running on the device
fgt_compare_with_manager Divergence between intent and observed state

Phase 1 and phase 2 are reported separately, always

This is the single most important behaviour here.

A tunnel with phase 1 up and phase 2 down is neither "up" nor "down". It is a specific and common fault — usually a proxy-ID or selector mismatch — where IKE negotiated fine and no traffic can actually pass. Collapsing the two into one status field destroys the only signal that distinguishes it from a healthy tunnel or a dead one.

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.

fortigate-ops is a skill published in the GitHub repository automateyournetwork/netclaw (651 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 86 tokens to every session and 1,525 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-09-03.
