elizaos-runtime-diagnostics

elizaos-runtime-diagnostics is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from greedychipmunk/agent-skills. It costs 66 tokens per session (1,164 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A troubleshooting guide for elizaOS, the software runtime used to run agents. It covers startup, plugins, databases, services, model readiness, and local or Cloud-hosted setups.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate boot errors, missing providers, broken connectors, unhealthy agents, blocked migrations, and model or service readiness problems.
Why use it?
It helps separate the actual cause of a failed agent from version, configuration, permission, or hosting differences. It also keeps diagnosis limited to approved, redacted information instead of exposing secrets.

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

elizaos-runtime-diagnostics 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 yesterday.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/offline_report.py), 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.

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.

elizaOS Runtime Diagnostics

Establish version and authority

Identify the installed release/commit, launch mechanism, OS, host type, actual API origin, database backend, intended provider, and first error timestamp. Confirm ownership and permission to inspect that instance. Distinguish a core-only embedding, standalone agent, app/desktop host, Cloud container, and Cloud thin client. Do not assume a thin client has a local runtime.

Read version and command provenance before suggesting commands. This baseline is develop commit eb9a6f7d3ccc46d3ff9d173383cff900004738c9 (2026-10-15), not legacy 1.x CLI docs. Recheck corresponding source when the installed version differs. Do not install, upgrade, build, or execute upstream code just to diagnose it.

Start offline

  1. Ask for the precise failure and a small redacted existing error window. Do not request complete environment/configuration/log dumps or provider keys.

  2. Inspect manifest metadata and only explicitly requested environment-variable presence with the bundled Python-stdlib helper, if useful:

    python3 scripts/offline_report.py --manifest /approved/checkout/package.json \
      --env OPENAI_API_KEY --env POSTGRES_URL
    

    Resolve the script relative to this skill, not the target repo. With no arguments it inspects nothing. It never reads environment values, .env, configuration, logs, or databases; executes no subprocesses; and makes no network requests. Manifest reads are explicit, bounded, regular-file-only, and reject symlink components. Use trusted stable parent directories; this is not a sandbox against concurrent directory replacement. Presence means name exists, even if empty; it does not establish validity, activation, or runtime inheritance. Only known script names, never bodies, are reported. Exit 0 means the requested inventory was built, 1 means at least one manifest could not be inspected, and 2 means invalid arguments/limits. None proves runtime readiness or credential validity.

  3. Do not infer that a core runtime automatically reads arbitrary process environment. Trace host configuration, plugin configuration, and provider registration at the installed revision before changing a setting.

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.

elizaos-runtime-diagnostics is a skill published in the GitHub repository greedychipmunk/agent-skills (22 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 66 tokens to every session and 1,164 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-10-16.
