openrig-skills

openrig-skills is a skill for Claude Code from mvschwarz/openrig. It costs 79 tokens per session (2,183 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An index of OpenRig skills, where OpenRig is a system for operating coding agents across machines. It explains which skill applies to tasks such as fleet recovery, seat handover, debugging, upgrades, and queue management.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to discover and load guidance for recovering agents, handing over seats, waking watchdogs, reaching other hosts, packaging rigs, upgrading OpenRig, debugging, and triaging queues.
Why use it?
It helps you find the relevant operating instructions when you do not know which OpenRig skill to use.

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

openrig-skills 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 118 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

OpenRig skills — the index (start here)

You're running inside OpenRig. OpenRig ships a set of skills — small documents that tell you when to do something and how. This file is the map: what ships, when to reach for each, and how to load it. If you don't know which skill applies, or nothing is projected into your context, start here.

How OpenRig context works (30 seconds)

Skills are progressive disclosure: a skill's name + description sit in your context ambiently (the "hot tier"); its body loads only when you open it. So you don't pre-read everything — you pattern-match a skill's "when" to your moment, then open just that one. This file is the index over the whole shipped set. (For bounded procedures, open agent-operated-workflows; for ongoing agent-backed applications, open agent-operated-software.)

Every row below names how to reach the skill — already-hot, or an exact load path. No row is a dead end.

Loading an entry on demand — rig context get

Don't guess a file path or a name. Go ask → ref → load in three steps:

  1. Discover — run rig context list for every shipped entry's ref and name. The when for each is the index below (or rig context list --json, which carries each entry's purpose) — match your moment there.
  2. Select — match your moment to a row's when and take its ref. Refs are canonical full paths that mirror the library layout — skills/<namespace>/<name> (e.g. skills/core/rig-lifecycle, skills/process/systematic-debugging). A unique bare name (e.g. watchdog) also resolves; any slash-bearing ref is an exact lookup and fails loud if it does not exist.
  3. Loadrig context get skills/<namespace>/<name>:
rig context get skills/core/rig-lifecycle

The router itself is available through both forms it teaches: rig context get openrig-skills and rig context get skills/core/openrig-skills.

The content is served from the installed CLI, so what you load always matches your running version — no path-guessing, no frozen-fork drift. (The daemon assembles the same bundle rig context preview shows an operator — get is the agent-facing pull.)

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.
