sap-background-jobs

sap-background-jobs is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from marcellourbani/vscode_abap_remote_fs. It costs 46 tokens per session (3,726 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only procedure for investigating SAP background jobs, which are scheduled tasks in SAP business systems. It checks job records, steps, logs, and runtime failures using SAP tables and dumps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to identify a specific job run, inspect its steps and execution user, read relevant logs, and diagnose failures or runtime dumps.
Why use it?
It gives investigations a fixed order and prevents a failed database query from being mistaken for an empty result.

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

sap-background-jobs 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 3d 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.

SAP Background Job Investigation

Overview

This is an investigation procedure, not a callable background-job connector. Use the read-only SQL and dump tools with TBTCO, TBTCP, TBTCJOBLOG0-9, and T100 as described below. The procedure covers finding job instances, reading logs, and diagnosing failures including runtime dumps.

Rules

  • ALWAYS identify the exact job instance with both JOBNAME and JOBCOUNT before investigating it
  • Treat every SQL error as a likely agent query defect. Stop the investigation, diagnose the reported table, field, type, grouping, or ABAP SQL syntax problem, correct the query, and rerun the same query before continuing. Do not treat a failed query as an empty result or switch to unrelated tables/tools without explaining why the corrected query cannot run.
  • ALWAYS follow the partition lookup and fallback sequence in Step 4, then count the matching entries before retrieving a log
  • NEVER attempt to build the full job log for large logs (>100 entries) — use targeted queries instead (filter by msgtype, or read only last N entries)
  • ALWAYS check TBTCP for every job step, including its program, variant, status, and AUTHCKNAM execution user
  • NEVER use the job scheduler to identify the runtime context of a failed step. TBTCO-SDLUNAME is the user who scheduled the job, while TBTCP-AUTHCKNAM is the execution user for that specific step. A multi-step job can use a different execution user for each step
  • ALWAYS resolve every message through T100 as described in Step 8 before interpreting its text or MSGV1-MSGV4 values; treat any business meaning inferred beforehand as unproven
  • For aborted jobs (status = 'A'), ALWAYS check the last few log entries first — they contain the failure reason
  • When message 00/671 appears, follow the dump investigation in Step 9
  • Custom messages (message class starting with Z* or Y*) indicate custom code is writing to the job log — these are often the most informative for business logic failures
  • For periodic jobs, check TBTCO.periodic = 'X' and the period fields (prdmins, prdhours, prddays, prdweeks, prdmonths) to understand scheduling

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.
