Ops Fires

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Tasks that involve Failing and flaky tests

Example prompts

• “/ops-fires”

Requirements

• A credential in SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN
• Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Grep, Glob, Skill, Agent, AskUserQuestion, TeamCreate, SendMessage, TaskCreate, TaskUpdate, Monitor, WebFetch, WebSearch, mcp__sentry__search_issues, mcp__sentry__get_issue_details

Workflow steps

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

1. 1Daemon health: Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace}/daemon-health.json
2. 2Secrets: AWS credentials are required for ECS/CloudWatch queries.
3. 3Preferences: Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR}/preferences.json for secrets_manager config to know which vault to query.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 10bfc43. 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
  • Read
  • Grep
  • Glob
  • Skill
  • Agent
  • AskUserQuestion
  • TeamCreate
  • SendMessage
  • TaskCreate

  …and 6 more on the same allowed-tools line.

  From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

• Runs code

  Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

  • aws
  • gh
  • curl

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

• Network

  Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

  • sentry.io
  • health.aws.amazon.com

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

• Credentials

  Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

  • SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN
  • AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID

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

Context cost

Ops Fires loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 599 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~34

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.8k

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

• NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md

  allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Grep, Glob, Skill, Agent, AskUserQuestion, TeamCreate, SendMessage, TaskCreate, TaskUpda

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.
