rudder: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/maintainer/rudder-desktop-dev-recovery-maintainer/SKILL.md

rudder-desktop-dev-recovery-maintainer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Undertone0809/rudder. It costs 118 tokens per session (1,707 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A recovery guide for Rudder Desktop and its development shell when they fail to launch, authenticate, update, migrate, or connect to the intended server.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to recover or diagnose development and packaged Desktop paths, login and device approval, local sessions, updates, instance selection, migrations, backups, and rollback decisions.
Why use it?
It helps identify the exact failing layer and prevents treating a healthy but unrelated API or instance as proof that Desktop works.

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

rudder-desktop-dev-recovery-maintainer 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 6d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 184 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Rudder Desktop Dev Recovery Maintainer

Recover the exact Desktop path the user named. API health alone is not Desktop health, and a healthy server belonging to another checkout is not evidence.

Exclusive Outcome

  • RECOVERED: the named Desktop path opened and its runtime identity plus requested behavior were observed.
  • BLOCKED: the failing layer and remaining external decision or dependency are proven.

Do not claim recovery from code inspection, typecheck, a dry run, or an unrelated healthy server.

Classify The Target Before Resolving Runtime Identity

Development or worktree target

  1. Inspect the current checkout's .rudder/config.json and safe keys from .rudder/.env.
  2. Follow scripts/dev-local-env.mjs to resolve the effective Rudder home, instance, port, and descriptor.
  3. Read that instance's runtime/server.json; use its apiUrl.
  4. Only fall back to shared 3100/dev after proving the checkout has no isolation configuration.

Typical current commands:

pnpm dev
pnpm dev:watch
pnpm --filter @rudderhq/desktop dev
pnpm --filter @rudderhq/desktop smoke

Packaged or prod-local target

Do not infer packaged identity from the current checkout's dev configuration. Use installed-app boot evidence and the prod-local runtime. Unless an explicit override or boot record proves otherwise, expect:

  • RUDDER_LOCAL_ENV=prod_local
  • instance default
  • descriptor ~/.rudder/instances/default/runtime/server.json

For package-sensitive changes, the required proof path is:

pnpm desktop:verify

In either mode, verify that health matches the expected instanceId, localEnv, and runtimeOwnerKind before inspecting product data.

Migration-History Recovery Route

Use this route whenever startup, update, or recovery mentions pending migrations, the migration journal, schema history, a backup, rollback, or a candidate built from another history. Before inspecting or changing a non-empty instance, read references/migration-history-recovery.md. It defines the manifest/live-journal comparison, forward-known/unknown/ checksum-mismatch/fork classifications, verified backup and free-space gates, isolated forward validation, installed-app and same-workspace proof, and the boundary between RECOVERED and candidate-only or backup-only evidence.

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.
