gitlab-mcp: Skill for Claude Code

.github/skills/status/SKILL.md

status is a skill for Claude Code from zereight/gitlab-mcp. It costs 37 tokens per session (481 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A status-reporting skill for showing which OMG modes and agents are active, along with their current phase, progress, and work completed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check the state of autopilot, Ralph, team execution, quality checks, or self-improvement runs.
Why use it?
It gives you one place to see what automated coding work is running and whether it is making progress. It also reports when no supported mode is active.

About the project

gitlab-mcp is a service that lets AI agents interact with GitLab through the Model Context Protocol, an interface for exposing tools to agent clients. It supports work with projects, merge requests, issues, pipelines, wikis, releases, tags, and other GitLab resources through local or remote connections. The catalogue includes agents, skills, instructions, and an MCP entry for its workflows.

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

status 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

Status

Show the current state of all OMG modes, active agents, and progress.

When to Use

  • Check what mode is currently active
  • See progress of omg-autopilot, ralph, or team execution
  • Verify state after a cancel or resume

Workflow

1. Scan State Files

Read .omc/state/ directory for active mode state files:

  • omg-autopilot-state.json
  • ralph-state.json
  • ultrawork-state.json
  • ultraqa-state.json
  • team-state.json
  • self-improve/state/agent-settings.json

2. Report Active Modes

For each active mode, show:

OMG Autopilot:

  • Current phase (0-5)
  • Phase name and progress
  • Files modified so far

Ralph:

  • Current story (N of M)
  • Stories passing / total
  • Linked ultrawork status

Team:

  • Team name and member count
  • Current pipeline stage
  • Task completion (N/M tasks done)

UltraQA:

  • Current cycle (N of 5)
  • Last failure summary

Self-Improve:

  • Current iteration
  • Best score vs baseline
  • Improvement percentage
  • Stop condition proximity

3. Report No Active Modes

If nothing is active: "No active OMG modes. Start with /omg-autopilot, /ralph, or /team."

Output Format

=== OMG Status ===

Mode: OMG Autopilot
Phase: 2/5 (Execution)
Started: 2 minutes ago
Files modified: 12

Mode: Team (linked)
Team: fix-ts-errors
Stage: team-exec
Workers: 3/3 active
Tasks: 2/5 completed

Verbose Mode (--verbose)

With --verbose, also show:

  • Full state JSON for each active mode
  • Recent git log (last 5 commits)
  • .omc/ directory listing
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.
