What it does

Install Boltmcp is an agent skill from boltmcp/boltmcp. Use this Skill when asked to help install or uninstall BoltMCP

Its SKILL.md is about 2.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/get-workstation-info.sh`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud. It works with Model Context Protocol, Kubernetes, Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure.

When your agent uses it

Asked to help install
Uninstall BoltMCP

Example prompts

“/install-boltmcp”

Requirements

A Bash shell
Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(.claude/skills/install-boltmcp/scripts/get-workstation-info.sh)

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

Where do you want to install BoltMCP?
Which is your preferred cloud provider?
What domain do you want to deploy to?

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 528c9fd. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
- Bash(.claude/skills/install-boltmcp/scripts/get-workstation-info.sh)
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- kubectl
- helm
- gcloud
- aws
- az
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use kubectl, helm, gcloud, aws and az, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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

Install Boltmcp loads about 2.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 20 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,368 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~20
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~2.3k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,368 words (~2,326 tokens).
