cockpit

cockpit is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from bks-lab/open-bridge. It costs 79 tokens per session (398 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A local web dashboard for watching and steering the Bridge system. It shows briefings, tasks, agent tabs, sessions, workers, machines, and token information, and opens in a browser on the local computer.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to open the Bridge dashboard, view its local address, check its status, or stop it.
Why use it?
It gives one place to inspect and control distributed agent work instead of switching between terminal tabs. It can also start or reuse the dashboard server.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python3 scripts/bridge-cockpit.py open --json.

Good fit Use it to open the Bridge dashboard, view its local address, check its status, or stop it.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

cockpit 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 today.

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

Cockpit

Opens the cockpit (scripts/bridge-cockpit.py, guide docs/bridge-cockpit.md). It is an early version (alpha) and still being extended; mention that when a user meets it for the first time.

Run

python3 scripts/bridge-cockpit.py open --json

It starts the server in the background (or reuses the running one) and opens the page itself: a browser tab in the control workspace when the terminal driver can, else the default browser. Report the answer's url in one line and nothing else. Arguments after /cockpit pass through: --via auto|cmux|system|none picks where it opens, status, url and stop run that command instead of open.

When it refuses

Exit Meaning Say
2 cockpit.enabled is not true (or the config is invalid) how to switch it on: cockpit: {enabled: true} in bridge-config.yaml
3 the port is taken which port (cockpit.port) and that another program holds it
4 the server did not come up the last lines of .bridge/cockpit/server.log
5 the page could not be opened the url to open by hand
Changes

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.
