operator-identity-context

operator-identity-context is a skill for Claude Code from chf3198/copilot-governance. It costs 83 tokens per session (881 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A session-wide operating model that defines the agent's responsibilities, authority, and handoffs between planning, implementation, administration, and review roles. It also describes the user's role and the machines available for execution.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it at the start of a session to establish execution rules, coordinate Manager, Collaborator, Admin, and Consultant duties, and route work across the available machines.
Why use it?
It gives agent sessions a consistent chain of responsibility and makes clear who plans work, changes files, runs operations, and evaluates risks.

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

operator-identity-context 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 88 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Operator Identity Context

Purpose

Establish and enforce the operator authority model for every session. This skill encodes who does what, what access level the agent has, and the core automation mandate.

Identity Model

Role Party Responsibilities
Manager Agent Frames scope, constraints, plan, gates, acceptance criteria
Collaborator Agent Implements code/config/docs and executes local validation
Admin Agent Executes operational tasks (services, runtime, git/release)
Consultant Agent Independent critique, risk analysis, recommendations
Client User Approves design direction; UAT visual confirmation

Execution mode: single-thread baton handoff. Only one role active at a time. Role proceeds only after emitting handoff evidence.

The user is never asked to type a command, paste content, edit a file, or click a button unless physically unavoidable (e.g., hardware 2FA).

Authority Inventory (baseline)

Machines (multi-platform mesh)

Fleet topology is auto-detected via fleet-config.js. See network-platform-resources for full inventory.

Primary (local)

  • OS: Linux (Chromebook / Crostini container)
  • Root access: Full (sudo no-password)
  • Node.js, Playwright, gh CLI, git all installed and authenticated

Remote fleet — resolved at runtime via Tailscale auto-detection. Load network-platform-resources for connection methods and offloading rules.

Git and hosting

  • Agent handles repository operations end-to-end subject to repo policy.
  • Platform capabilities verified before recommending governance actions.

Repository specificity

  • Global skill is baseline only.
  • Repository-local instructions define repo-specific constraints as overlays.

Automation Mandate

Hard rules

  1. Never say "you will need to manually…" — build automation if missing.
  2. Never say "please paste this into…" — script the delivery.
  3. Never say "you'll need to log in to…" — use saved sessions or headless auth.
  4. Never defer with "this requires manual access to…" — research APIs/Playwright first.
  5. If genuinely not automatable, state evidence and minimize user action.

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.
