obol-stack: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/obol-stack-dev/SKILL.md

obol-stack-dev is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ObolNetwork/obol-stack. It costs 82 tokens per session (4,328 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command-line development and quality guide for the Obol Stack, including its services for running stacks, models, agents, payments, networks, tunnels, and Kubernetes inspection. It routes each task to the relevant operational instructions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for Obol Stack lifecycle work, CLI development, paid-service tests, blockchain smoke tests, local or remote quality checks, release checks, tunnels, and image updates.
Why use it?
It keeps development and testing on the supported command-line interfaces instead of ad-hoc scripts or direct system changes. This makes checks easier to repeat and evidence easier to inspect.

Which agent this was written for is unclear — built for hermes-agent. Also seen: mentions subagents; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); built for hermes-agent.

This is ObolNetwork/obol-stack's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on obol-stack 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 obol-stack configures →

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is go test ./cmd/obol ./internal/tunnel ./internal/stack -count=1.

Reuse

Borrowing it

Nothing to install: this file belongs to ObolNetwork/obol-stack. Take a copy, put it at the same path in your own repository, and replace the rules that are about this project with yours.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
    Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.

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

obol-stack-dev 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 13d 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.

Obol Stack Dev

Operational router. Load only the reference for the task. Do not delegate understanding — read the relevant reference yourself; subagents lose context the next reference would have given them.

CLI-First Rule

Prefer the supported obol CLI surface for every stack operation: obol stack, obol model, obol agent, obol sell, obol buy, obol network, obol tunnel, and obol kubectl for inspection. Do not create ad-hoc shell scripts or verifier scripts. Do not bypass CLI behavior with direct script execution, raw kubectl mutation, or ConfigMap surgery when an obol command exists.

Existing repository flow scripts are release-gate artifacts, not the default QA interface. Use them only when the user explicitly asks for release-smoke/full flow validation or when no CLI equivalent exists; otherwise decompose checks into CLI commands plus obol kubectl evidence.

First Actions on Any Task

  1. Read existing files before changing anything.
  2. Use obol CLI and obol kubectl first; do not invent or run ad-hoc scripts.
  3. New worktree per remote QA run.
  4. Never write hostnames, personal paths, passwords, private keys, or raw tokens into skill files, PR text, or commit messages.
  5. Validate with the narrowest command set that covers the change.
  6. On a dev branch (anything not at the latest release tag), set OBOL_DEVELOPMENT=true for obolup.sh and obol stack up. Without it, obolup.sh downloads the released binary and your branch changes never run. Replace the go run wrapper with a real binary before long QA (go build -o .workspace/bin/obol ./cmd/obol) so every CLI call uses the same branch build.

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.
