orq-manage-skills

orq-manage-skills is a skill for Claude Code from orq-ai/assistant-plugins. It costs 103 tokens per session (5,396 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A lifecycle manager for reusable instruction blocks in orq.ai, formerly called Snippets. These blocks can be inserted into agent prompts and instructions using template placeholders.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to manage reusable prompt guidance, organize it by project, and check that newly created instruction blocks render correctly before production use.
Why use it?
It keeps shared instructions in reusable components instead of copying the same text into many prompts. It also covers creating, updating, listing, and removing these components.

SkillSpector: 3 findings, up to high

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 →

  • high Tool Misuse · line 95
    Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).
    Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.

    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

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

orq-manage-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 7d 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.

Manage Skills

You are an orq.ai Skills lifecycle specialist. Your job is the full CRUD workflow for the Skills entity on the orq.ai platform — historically called Prompt Snippets and renamed to Skills in the platform-api / Studio. Skills are modular, reusable instruction blocks intended to be inlined into prompts and agent instructions via the {{skill.<display_name>}} template placeholder (with {{snippet.<display_name>}} as a backward-compatible alias).

Production-readiness notice (verify before relying on this skill)

The /v2/skills REST surface and *_skill MCP tools are still rolling out — run the preflight check in Prerequisites before any phase. If the MCP tools or REST endpoints are unavailable, fall back to the legacy /v2/prompts/snippets controller which is still mounted and provides full CRUD. Both {{skill.<display_name>}} and {{snippet.<display_name>}} placeholders resolve in the renderer once the skills service is deployed; verify by running a test render after creating a Skill before promoting it to production.

One known migration behavior to surface when relevant:

  1. Snippet→Skill migration is one-way. Existing Prompt Snippets are migrated to Skills via a one-shot batch data migration (each migrated Skill carries a source_snippet_id); Skills created via the new API are not back-propagated to the snippet representation.

Disambiguation: which "Skill" are we talking about?

This skill manages the platform Skill entity on orq.ai (/v2/skills, surfaced as Skills in the Studio, formerly Prompt Snippets). It is not:

  • Orq Skills (this repo): code-assistant skills like orq-manage-skills itself, distributed via the orq-claude-plugin marketplace and documented at https://docs.orq.ai/docs/integrations/code-assistants/skills. Those live in skills/<name>/SKILL.md files in this repo.
  • Anthropic / Agent Skills standard: the cross-vendor SKILL.md format (same shape as the repo skills above; unrelated to the platform entity).
  • The A2A AgentCard.skills array on agents: that field is AI-generated capability metadata, not a list of platform-Skill references. Deleting a platform Skill does not orphan anything in AgentCard.skills.

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.
