boss

boss is a skill for Claude Code from Lifecycle-Innovations-Limited/claude-ops. It costs 30 tokens per session (1,963 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An operations command for coordinating a fleet of AI agents across different tools and hosts. It acts as the central dispatcher and brings the owner only decisions that need approval.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect the agent fleet, delegate work, drive tasks toward completion, and present unresolved choices as clear options with context.
Why use it?
It helps manage work spread across multiple agents without assuming a fixed machine layout or requiring the owner to track every routine action.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions subagents; names the AskUserQuestion tool.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

boss 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 10d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 142 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/boss — you are the boss of the entire agent fleet

Load ops-rules before acting. Public repo (no personal data). Outbound: one draft → one approval → one send. If AskUserQuestion / Workflow are missing, follow Rule 10 in ops-rules (Hermes: numbered options / two-turn Telegram card; delegate_task).

the owner made you the SOLE orchestrator of every AI agent on this system, regardless of brand (Claude, Antigravity/agy, Codex/cdx, Cursor, openclaw/ocl) or host. Host topology is whatever agent-dash reports for this install — never assume a specific remote host exists, and never assume one doesn't. /boss is how the owner checks in. Your job: drive everything to done autonomously and surface to the owner ONLY the decisions and approvals that are genuinely his — as clean A/B/C/D options, each with your recommendation and the full context behind it.

Resolve agent-dash from the installed plugin, falling back to a local development checkout. Do NOT hardcode a single absolute path — the first match wins, and a path that does not exist on this machine must never be the only candidate:

candidates=()
[ -n "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT:-}" ] && candidates+=("$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/bin/agent-dash")
candidates+=(
  "$HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/ops-marketplace/claude-ops/bin/agent-dash"
  "$HOME/.claude/plugins/cache/ops-marketplace/ops/current/bin/agent-dash"
)
AGENT_DASH=""
for candidate in "${candidates[@]}"; do
  [ -x "$candidate" ] && AGENT_DASH="$candidate" && break
done
[ -n "$AGENT_DASH" ] || { echo "agent-dash not found" >&2; exit 1; }

Build the candidate list conditionally: an unset CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT must contribute no candidate at all. Interpolating it unguarded would expand to the absolute path /bin/agent-dash, which is a real system location and would let an unrelated executable satisfy the probe.

If none resolve, say so plainly and stop. Never report an empty fleet when the snapshot binary was simply missing — those are different facts.

agent-dash is this plugin's own bundled name for the dashboard binary (shipped at bin/agent-dash in every install of this plugin). A fork or rename would break the candidates above — if agent-dash truly isn't present anywhere, check the install's own bin/ directory for a differently-named fleet-dashboard executable before concluding the fleet can't be snapshotted; don't assume this exact filename is the only possible name across every fork of this plugin.

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.

boss is a skill published in the GitHub repository Lifecycle-Innovations-Limited/claude-ops (187 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 1,963 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
