What it does
Nso Service Mgmt is an agent skill from automateyournetwork/netclaw. Cisco NSO service management — discover service types, list service instances, orchestrate network services. Use when listing NSO services, checking service health, auditing deployed service instances, or asking what services NSO can provision.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k 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. The repository describes itself as: An AI agent that claws through your network. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Listing NSO services
- Checking service health
- Auditing deployed service instances
- Asking what services NSO can provision
Example prompts
- “/nso-service-mgmt”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Translates the service intent into per-device CLI/NETCONF configuration
- Deploys the config to all affected devices transactionally
- Tracks what config belongs to which service (service meta-data)
- Enables rollback — delete the service and all its config is cleanly removed
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:
NSO_PASSWORD
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Nso Service Mgmt loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 826 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

NSO Service Management
MCP Server
- Command:
cisco-nso-mcp-server(pip-installed, stdio transport) - Requires:
NSO_ADDRESS,NSO_USERNAME,NSO_PASSWORDenvironment variables
Available Tools
| Tool | Parameters | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
get_service_types | none | List all available service types in NSO (L3VPN, VPLS, ACL, etc.) |
get_services | service_type | List all service instances for a given service type |
What Are NSO Services?
NSO services are the core value of NSO. Instead of configuring devices one at a time, you define a service (e.g., "L3VPN between Site-A and Site-B") and NSO:
- Translates the service intent into per-device CLI/NETCONF configuration
- Deploys the config to all affected devices transactionally
- Tracks what config belongs to which service (service meta-data)
- Enables rollback — delete the service and all its config is cleanly removed
Common service types include:
- L3VPN — Layer 3 VPN provisioning across PE routers
- L2VPN / VPLS — Layer 2 VPN / VPLS services
- ACL Management — Centralized ACL provisioning
- QoS Policies — Quality of service templates across devices
- Interface Provisioning — Standardized interface configurations
- Firewall Rules — Security policy deployment
- Custom Services — Any service package developed for your environment
Workflow: Service Discovery
When a user asks "what services does NSO have?" or "what can NSO provision?":
- Get service types:
get_service_typesto list all available service packages - For each type:
get_servicesto list deployed instances - Report: Table of service types, instance counts, and deployment status
Workflow: Service Inventory Report
When a user needs to understand what's deployed:
- List service types:
get_service_types - For each interesting type:
get_serviceswith the service type name - Cross-reference with devices: Use
get_device_config(nso-device-ops) to see the config NSO deployed - Report: Service name, type, affected devices, deployment status
Workflow: Service Health Check
When validating that NSO services are properly deployed:
- List services:
get_service_types→get_servicesfor each type - Check device sync: For each device in a service, run
check_device_sync(nso-device-ops) - Flag issues: If a device is out of sync, the service config may have drifted
- Report: Service health summary — in-sync vs out-of-sync devices per service
Workflow: Pre-Change Service Impact Analysis
Before making manual device changes:
- List services:
get_service_types→get_servicesfor each type - Identify affected services: Which services touch the device being changed?
- Warn the user: "R1 has 3 active L3VPN services — manual changes may conflict with NSO"
- Recommend: Use NSO services for changes instead of direct CLI, or re-sync after manual changes

NSO Service Concepts
| Concept | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Service Type | A service package (e.g., l3vpn) — defines what parameters are needed and how to translate to device config |
| Service Instance | A deployed service (e.g., "l3vpn-siteA-siteB") — a specific instantiation with actual parameters |
| Service Meta-Data | NSO tracks which config lines belong to which service — enables clean rollback |
| FASTMAP | NSO's algorithm that maps service intent to device config — handles create, modify, delete |
| Reactive FASTMAP | Services that react to external events (e.g., device state changes) |
| Nano Services | Multi-step services with state machines for complex provisioning workflows |
| Service Package | The code (YANG models + templates + logic) that defines a service type |
Example Slack Conversations
"What services are running on NSO?" → get_service_types → list of available service packages → get_services for each type → count of deployed instances → Report: "NSO has 4 service types: l3vpn (12 instances), acl-mgmt (8 instances), qos-policy (5 instances), interface-std (20 instances)"
"Show me all L3VPN services" → get_services("l3vpn") → list of all L3VPN instances with their parameters → Report: "12 L3VPN services deployed across 6 PE routers"
"Are any services out of sync?" → get_service_types → get_services for each → get affected devices → check_device_sync for each affected device → Report: "2 of 12 L3VPN services have out-of-sync devices: PE1, PE3"
"What services touch router PE1?" → get_service_types → get_services for each → filter for PE1 → Report: "PE1 participates in: l3vpn-customer-a, l3vpn-customer-b, qos-gold, acl-mgmt-edge"
Important Rules
- Services are read-only in this MCP — you can discover and inspect services but not create/modify/delete them
- Service drift is critical — if
check_device_syncshows out-of-sync, service config may not match intended state - Manual changes conflict with services — warn users that direct CLI changes on NSO-managed devices can break service tracking
- Record in GAIT — log all service discovery and audit operations for audit trail
Environment Variables
Same as nso-device-ops:
NSO_SCHEME,NSO_ADDRESS,NSO_PORT,NSO_USERNAME,NSO_PASSWORD,NSO_VERIFY,NSO_TIMEOUT
Failure Behavior
- 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.
