Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00031 | $0.02398 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00015 | $0.01199 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00480 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00240 |
Grade A, and why
volcano-job-diagnose 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 11d 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 — 320 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Volcano Job Diagnosis
Diagnose Volcano Job (batch.volcano.sh/v1beta1) status and issues. This skill checks Job phases, task statuses, PodGroup associations, and overall job health.
Scope: This skill is for diagnosis only. Once you identify the root cause, report it to the user and stop. Do NOT attempt to modify job specs or restart jobs — that should be left to the user.
Usage
bash skills/core/volcano-job-diagnose/scripts/diagnose-job.sh --job <job-name> --namespace <namespace>
Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
--job JOB |
yes | Job name to diagnose |
--namespace NS |
no | Namespace (default: default) |
--verbose |
no | Show detailed task and pod information |
Examples
Diagnose a Volcano Job:
bash skills/core/volcano-job-diagnose/scripts/diagnose-job.sh --job my-training-job --namespace training
Verbose mode with task details:
bash skills/core/volcano-job-diagnose/scripts/diagnose-job.sh --job my-training-job --namespace training --verbose
Understanding Volcano Jobs
Job Structure

Note: Volcano Jobs can also be queried using the short name
vcjob(e.g.,kubectl get vcjob). This is an alias forjob.batch.volcano.sh. Be careful not to confuse with native Kubernetesbatch/v1 Job— always usejob.batch.volcano.shorvcjobfor Volcano Jobs.

Running |
Job is executing |

Job tasks are completing |
Completed |

What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

volcano-job-diagnose is a skill published in the GitHub repository scitix/siclaw (233 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 31 tokens to every session and 2,398 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
