ops-bottleneck-review

ops-bottleneck-review is a skill for Codex from jeremylongworth-source/AgentSkills. It costs 56 tokens per session (346 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for finding the points that slow down a business workflow, such as limited capacity, delayed decisions, weak handoffs, staffing constraints, or tool problems. It separates observed problems from possible root causes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to map operational bottlenecks, prioritize process changes, identify delegation opportunities, review capacity or staffing constraints, and create an owner action plan.
Why use it?
It helps owners focus on the constraint that limits the whole process instead of treating symptoms as causes. It ranks fixes by impact, effort, risk, ownership, and learning time.

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

ops-bottleneck-review 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 7d 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.

What it actually says

Ops Bottleneck Review

Core Workflow

  1. Identify business workflow, customer promise, capacity, handoffs, tools, staff, vendors, and failure points.
  2. Separate symptoms, root-cause hypotheses, confirmed constraints, and missing evidence.
  3. Map bottlenecks by demand, capacity, process, quality, staffing, vendor, tooling, or decision delay.
  4. Prioritize fixes by impact, effort, risk, owner, and time to learn.
  5. Recommend practical next actions, delegation opportunities, and follow-up metrics.
  6. Flag people, legal, customer, finance, or safety decisions requiring review.

Safety Rules

  • Do not recommend staffing, employment, customer, legal, safety, or financial changes without owner review.
  • Do not treat a symptom as root cause without evidence.
  • Do not invent process data, staff performance facts, vendor facts, or customer impact.

Deliverable Shape

For bottleneck reviews, provide:

  • Workflow scope
  • Bottleneck map
  • Evidence and assumptions
  • Impact and effort ranking
  • Recommended fixes
  • Delegation or staffing notes
  • Metrics to watch
  • Owner action list

References

  • Read references/ops-bottleneck-review-checklist.md when reviewing owner, agency, local business, or small-operator bottlenecks.
Files

What ships with it

2 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.
