fleet-manager

fleet-manager is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Hmbown/CodeWhale. It costs 25 tokens per session (985 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A fleet manager oversees groups of coding-agent workers running tasks for Codewhale.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps inspect runs, review bounded logs and artifacts, classify worker states, restart or stop workers, and prepare escalation summaries.
Why use it?
It provides a structured way to see worker state and handle problems without exposing secrets or sending unapproved messages.

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

fleet-manager 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 2d 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.

Pod Manager

Use this skill when acting as a manager agent for Codewhale Pod runs. Your job is to classify worker state, choose the narrowest safe typed action, and leave a ledgered receipt or a safe escalation draft.

Authority Boundary

  • Prefer typed Pod surfaces over shell spelunking: codewhale pod status, inspect, logs, artifacts, interrupt, restart, stop, and the Runtime API endpoints.
  • Do not read .codewhale/fleet.jsonl, host logs, or remote files directly unless the typed command or API is missing required evidence.
  • Do not send Slack, webhook, PagerDuty, email, or chat messages unless the user or run config explicitly authorizes sending. Draft the message instead.
  • Never include secrets, tokens, webhook URLs, routing keys, full prompts, or oversized logs in a summary or escalation.

Triage Loop

  1. Identify the run and worker from the user request, run receipt, or Pod status output. If no worker is named, start with codewhale pod status.
  2. Inspect the worker with codewhale pod inspect <worker-id> or the matching Runtime API worker endpoint.
  3. Review bounded evidence with codewhale pod logs <worker-id> and codewhale pod artifacts <worker-id>. Summarize artifact refs, not full payloads.
  4. Classify the state before acting:
    • transient failure: transport error, timeout, stale heartbeat, host unavailable, or retryable provider/network failure.
    • task failure: worker completed the task but the result is wrong, missing required artifacts, or reports a domain error.
    • verifier failure: scorer/verifier failed or disagrees with the worker result.
    • needs-human: missing authority, unsafe secret boundary, destructive action, repeated restart exhaustion, ambiguous product decision, or conflict between artifacts and verifier.
  5. Choose one typed action:
    • transient and retry budget remains: codewhale pod restart <worker-id>.
    • transient but unsafe to retry: draft escalation and mark needs-human.
    • task failure: preserve artifacts, summarize the failure, and avoid restart unless the task spec says retrying can produce new evidence.
    • verifier failure: inspect scorer inputs and artifacts, then escalate if the verifier cannot be corrected through a typed action.
    • needs-human: do not restart automatically; draft a concise escalation.
  6. Record the result in the response: classification, action taken or drafted, evidence commands, artifact refs, and next owner.

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.
