What it does

Archestra Dev Investigate is an agent skill from archestra-ai/archestra. Use when investigating Archestra bugs or incidents — staging issues, backend 50x errors, Drizzle failed queries, DB connection pressure, deploy regressions, or Kubernetes/runtime symptoms. Orientation only; defers the process to /investigate.

Its SKILL.md is about 830 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Container orchestration and ORMs and data access. It works with Kubernetes, Sentry and PostgreSQL. The repository describes itself as: Enterprise AI Platform with guardrails, MCP registry, gateway & orchestrator.

When your agent uses it

  • Investigating Archestra bugs
  • Incidents — staging issues
  • Backend 50x errors
  • Drizzle failed queries

Example prompts

  • “/archestra-dev-investigate”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit aa7ab51. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Archestra Dev Investigate loads about 831 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 67 tokens; SKILL.md has 427 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~67
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~831

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 427 words (~831 tokens).

“Orientation for debugging Archestra. For the process itself — evidence-first, find the mechanism before fixing — use /investigate if you have it. This skill only adds what's specific to Archestra.”
