What it does

Eve Ng Lab Management is an agent skill from automateyournetwork/netclaw. Manage EVE-NG labs and platform inventory. Use when listing labs, checking lab metadata, creating or deleting labs, importing or exporting lab archives, checking EVE-NG health or auth, or verifying available node images before build work.

Its SKILL.md is about 500 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/image-and-pagination.md` and `references/operational-guardrails.md`).

The repository describes itself as: An AI agent that claws through your network. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Checking lab metadata
  • Exporting lab archives
  • Checking EVE-NG health
  • Verifying available node images before build work

Example prompts

  • “/eve-ng-lab-management”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Use eve_status and eve_auth to verify platform state when needed.
  2. Use eve_list_labs / eve_get_lab for lab discovery and metadata.
  3. Before creating, starting, or deleting labs, apply {baseDir}/references/operational-guardrails.md.
  4. For image questions, follow {baseDir}/references/image-and-pagination.md.
  5. For import/export work, use native lab ZIP workflows first.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit aa90e7d. 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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • EVE_PASSWORD

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

Context cost

Eve Ng Lab Management loads about 499 tokens when it runs, and up to ~808 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 207 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~499
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~808

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.

EVE-NG Lab Management

Use this skill for lab inventory, lifecycle, health, and image checks.

Workflow

  1. Use eve_status and eve_auth to verify platform state when needed.
  2. Use eve_list_labs / eve_get_lab for lab discovery and metadata.
  3. Before creating, starting, or deleting labs, apply {baseDir}/references/operational-guardrails.md.
  4. For image questions, follow {baseDir}/references/image-and-pagination.md.
  5. For import/export work, use native lab ZIP workflows first.

Available tools

  • eve_status
  • eve_auth
  • eve_list_images
  • eve_list_labs
  • eve_get_lab
  • eve_create_lab
  • eve_delete_lab
  • eve_export_lab
  • eve_import_lab

Notes

  • Lab paths should include the folder prefix, for example /Labs/BGP.unl.
  • .unl is added automatically if omitted.
  • ZIP lab export includes the lab package, not node images.

Failure Behavior

  • If a tool call fails with an authentication or connection error, check that EVE_PASSWORD, EVE_URL, EVE_USER are set and valid before assuming a data or device problem.
  • On a tool error (timeout, unreachable host, malformed response), report the failure and its error message directly to the user rather than fabricating or guessing at results.
  • For a confirmed read-only call, check connectivity and retry once if appropriate. For any call that changes state or sends a message, a timeout does not prove the action failed: inspect current state or delivery status before retrying, preserve the required approval/change gates, and do not repeat an action whose outcome is unknown.
