change-management

change-management is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from BagelHole/DevOps-Security-Agent-Skills. It costs 25 tokens per session (3,530 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured process for planning, reviewing, recording, and reversing changes to production systems. CAB means change advisory board, a group that reviews higher-risk changes; CI/CD means automated building, testing, and delivery.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to classify changes, set CAB approvals, define emergency procedures, connect change records to CI/CD, and document rollback steps.
Why use it?
It reduces untracked production changes and makes approvals, maintenance windows, emergency handling, testing, and rollback expectations clear for audits and operations.

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

change-management 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.

Change Management

Implement structured change management processes covering change classification, CAB workflows, emergency change procedures, and automation for compliance with SOC 2, ITIL, and regulatory frameworks.

When to Use

  • Establishing change management processes for production environments
  • Implementing change advisory board (CAB) workflows
  • Defining change classification and approval requirements
  • Configuring automated change tracking in CI/CD pipelines
  • Handling emergency changes with proper controls and documentation

Change Classification

change_types:
  standard:
    risk: Low
    approval: Pre-approved (no per-change approval needed)
    lead_time: None (within maintenance window)
    examples:
      - Routine patching within tested patch sets
      - Certificate rotation with established procedure
      - Scaling operations (adding/removing instances within limits)
      - Pre-approved configuration changes
      - Log rotation and archival
    requirements:
      - Change must match an approved Standard Change template
      - Automated testing must pass
      - Documented rollback procedure exists
      - Within defined maintenance window

  normal_low:
    risk: Low
    approval: Peer review (1 approver)
    lead_time: 2 business days
    examples:
      - Non-critical configuration changes
      - Feature flag toggles
      - Documentation updates to production systems
      - Adding monitoring dashboards or alerts

  normal_medium:
    risk: Medium
    approval: Team lead + peer review (2 approvers)
    lead_time: 5 business days
    examples:
      - Application deployments with new features
      - Database schema changes (non-breaking)
      - Network rule modifications
      - Integration endpoint changes
      - Dependency version upgrades

  normal_high:
    risk: High
    approval: CAB review required
    lead_time: 10 business days
    examples:
      - Infrastructure migrations
      - Breaking database schema changes
      - Major version upgrades (OS, runtime, database engine)
      - Changes to authentication or authorization systems
      - Multi-service coordinated deployments
      - Changes affecting data processing or compliance controls

  emergency:
    risk: Variable
    approval: Emergency CAB (minimum 2 approvers from on-call)
    lead_time: None (immediate implementation)
    examples:
      - Security vulnerability remediation (active exploitation)
      - Production outage resolution
      - Data integrity emergency fixes
      - Regulatory compliance deadline fixes
    requirements:
      - Retroactive full documentation within 48 hours
      - Post-implementation review required
      - CAB retroactive review at next meeting

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.
