boxel: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/claude-web-no-docker-stack/SKILL.md

claude-web-no-docker-stack is a skill for Claude Code from cardstack/boxel. It costs 174 tokens per session (2,848 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for starting the boxel development stack and browser tests in a Claude Code web session where network rules block container-image downloads. Docker images are packaged files used to run services such as PostgreSQL.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to diagnose denied downloads, check the session's proxy status, and run the host and realm-server browser test suites when images are unavailable.
Why use it?
It helps distinguish blocked network access from broken images or setup scripts when Docker pulls fail with a 403 error.

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is cardstack/boxel's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on boxel itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything boxel configures →

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is CI=true ./node_modules/.bin/ember test --path dist --filter 'Integration | search resource'.

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

claude-web-no-docker-stack scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (claude-web-no-docker-bootstrap.sh, claude-web-no-docker-mise-shim.sh, claude-web-no-docker-start-stack.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 198 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Running the stack when no container image can be pulled

.devcontainer/claude-web-start.sh assumes the session snapshot already holds the images and the toolchain. In a session provisioned without them — a fresh container, or one whose setup script failed — three separate egress denials land at once, and each one looks like a different problem:

Symptom Blocked host
curl https://mise.run → CONNECT tunnel failed, response 403 mise.run
docker pull postgres:16.3 → failed to copy: … Forbidden production.cloudfront.docker.com
docker pull ghcr.io/cardstack/boxel/postgres:16.3 pkg-containers.githubusercontent.com
docker pull public.ecr.aws/docker/library/postgres:16.3 d2glxqk2uabbnd.cloudfront.net
Fetching the boxel-index-cache artifact from a CI run productionresultssa*.blob.core.windows.net

Registry manifests resolve — the pull gets as far as the layers and then 403s — so a failure reads like a corrupt image rather than a policy denial. Confirm before working around anything:

curl -sS "$HTTPS_PROXY/__agentproxy/status" | head -40   # recentRelayFailures names the host

Per the proxy's own README, a 403/407 is an organization policy denial: report it, don't retry it, and don't look for another mirror — every mirror's blobs live behind one of the CDNs above.

What is reachable, and is what this skill builds on: nodejs.org, registry.npmjs.org (in the proxy's no-proxy list), the Ubuntu archive over apt, and github.com over git.

When to use

  • A web session is asked to run host tests (or realm-server tests) and Docker is unusable.
  • You need the stack up — a realm server, a prerender, the host app — to reproduce something, and the usual start script won't boot.
  • Deciding whether a test failure you are seeing is real or an artifact of this environment (see What this environment cannot run).

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

claude-web-no-docker-stack is a skill published in the GitHub repository cardstack/boxel (27 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 174 tokens to every session and 2,848 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-10-21.
