vllm-ascend-workspace: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/remote-toolbox/SKILL.md

remote-toolbox is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from maoxx241/vllm-ascend-workspace. It costs 39 tokens per session (1,263 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command-line toolkit for operating managed VAWS remote machines and session containers. VAWS is the project's remote execution environment.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for remote endpoint development, job execution, service lifecycle tasks, artifact transfers, and managed session cleanup.
Why use it?
It provides structured ways to connect, run and monitor jobs, synchronize files, manage services, transfer results, and clean up containers without manually handling SSH processes.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is maoxx241/vllm-ascend-workspace's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on vllm-ascend-workspace itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything vllm-ascend-workspace configures →

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python3 .agents/scripts/remote_target_resolve.py (--machine <alias> | --session-id <id> | --session-file <path>).

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

remote-toolbox 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 2mo 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.

VAWS Remote Toolbox

For a native-attached VAWS task, prefer the task-facing vaws_run and vaws_execution tools for supervised execution on a prepared runtime. They call this substrate behind the shared coordinator and retain host leases until owned processes and device occupancy are resolved. Do not pass their task, binding, or job ids as legacy --session-id values. Direct remote companion tools still use explicit endpoints and do not enforce a pool lease themselves.

Compatibility note: .remote-dev is now the preferred local-tool-like surface for ordinary remote endpoint development. Use this skill when the task needs managed VAWS target resolution, session containers, parity/sync, service adapters, artifact compatibility, or cleanup internals.

Use this skill when an agent needs to operate a managed VAWS machine or session container backend instead of writing raw SSH, scp, sftp, manual tail, or manual ps/kill commands.

Critical Rules

  • Prefer --session-id or --session-file for parallel work. Use --machine only for explicitly single-tenant legacy flows.
  • Entry points stream progress to stderr as __VAWS_REMOTE_TOOLBOX_PROGRESS__=<json>.
  • Final stdout is exactly one JSON object.
  • JSON failures must use one of: needs_input, blocked, failed, timeout, needs_repair, cancelled.
  • Let remote_job_start.py generate job ids by default. If you pass --job-id, it must be globally unique in this workspace; duplicate local job records are blocked before launching a remote process.
  • Artifact transfer uses SSH streaming plus manifest/hash verification. Do not depend on scp, sftp, or rsync.
  • remote_sync_plan --mode source-only and remote_sync_apply --mode source-only must not enter install/rebuild.
  • remote_sync_apply --mode materialize updates runtime sources but still skips install/rebuild.
  • remote_sync_apply --mode install delegates to remote-code-parity full install/rebuild behavior and consent gates.

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.
