staged-script-rollout

staged-script-rollout is a skill for Codex from zacharygcook/agent-skills. It costs 77 tokens per session (1,277 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A controlled rollout procedure for scripts that write to live data, shared PostgreSQL copies, or external systems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when operating a data-changing script through a planned dry run, small live run, and gradual expansion.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of running such scripts broadly by requiring explicit rollout intent and staged execution such as dry runs and limited live runs.

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

staged-script-rollout 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 10d 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 — 127 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Staged Script Rollout

Activation Gate

Use this skill only when BOTH conditions are true:

  1. The task is about actively operating or planning the rollout of a script through staged execution.
  2. The user makes that rollout intent explicit with language such as:
    • "roll this out"
    • "stage the rollout"
    • "run the dry run, then a limited live run"
    • "take this through dry run / live run"
    • "ramp this script"
    • "operate this script against production"
    • "run this live safely"

If those conditions are not both true, do not use this skill.

Permission to make live calls is not enough. A user saying "you may run live ZoomInfo/Firecrawl/API calls," "run a small E2E test," or "smoke test the pipeline" is still not a staged-script-rollout request unless they explicitly ask for staged rollout/ramp sequencing.

Non-Triggers

Do not use this skill for:

  • Implementing a new script unless the user explicitly asks to roll it out now.
  • Revising an existing script unless the user explicitly asks to run or stage it now.
  • Code review.
  • General pipeline investigation.
  • Test writing or test fixing.
  • CI debugging.
  • Refactoring.
  • Adding safety checks, dry-run flags, audit output, or rollback support.
  • Reading docs or explaining how a script works.
  • Running ordinary local validation commands such as Ruff, pytest, or schema checks.
  • Running a bounded E2E smoke test or pipeline probe.
  • Debugging a failed live run after the fact.
  • Noticing that a script touches HubSpot, PhoneBurner, Postgres, Firecrawl, ZoomInfo, or another external system.

For those tasks, follow the normal repo instructions and only mention staged rollout as an optional next step if it is directly useful.

Intended Use

When explicitly activated, use this skill for scripts that can mutate:

  • HubSpot
  • PhoneBurner
  • shared Postgres mirrors
  • other external systems or production-like state

The skill is about execution sequencing and operator commands, not general script development.

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.
