What it does

Ops Go is an agent skill from davepoon/buildwithclaude. Token-efficient morning briefing. Pre-gathers all data via shell scripts, then presents a unified business dashboard with prioritized actions.

Its SKILL.md is about 2k 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 Productivity & Automation, covering Shell scripting and Email management. It works with WhatsApp. The repository describes itself as: A single hub to find Claude Skills, Agents, Commands, Hooks, Plugins, and Marketplace collections to extend Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Agent SDK and OpenClaw. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Shell scripting
  • Tasks that involve Email management

Example prompts

  • “/ops-go”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Grep, Glob, Skill, Agent, TeamCreate, SendMessage, AskUserQuestion, TaskCreate, TaskUpdate, TaskList, CronCreate, CronList, WebFetch

Workflow steps

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

  1. Preferences: Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace}/preferences.json
  2. Daemon health: Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR}/daemon-health.json
  3. WhatsApp pre-check: Only include WhatsApp data if ~/.wacli/.health shows status=connected.

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
    • TeamCreate
    • SendMessage
    • AskUserQuestion
    • TaskCreate

    …and 5 more on the same allowed-tools line.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • jq

    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:

    • googleapis.com

    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

Ops Go loads about 2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 37 tokens; SKILL.md has 569 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~37
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Grep, Glob, Skill, Agent, TeamCreate, SendMessage, AskUserQuestion, 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.

OPS ► MORNING BRIEFING

Runtime Context

Before executing, load available context:

  1. Preferences: Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace}/preferences.json

    • owner — use in the greeting header ("Good morning, [owner]")
    • timezone — display all timestamps in this timezone
    • default_channels — which channels to include in unread summary
  2. Daemon health: Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR}/daemon-health.json

    • If action_needed is not null → surface it before the briefing
    • Check wacli-sync status before including WhatsApp unread counts
    • Also check ~/.wacli/.health for live auth status
  3. WhatsApp pre-check: Only include WhatsApp data if ~/.wacli/.health shows status=connected.

CLI/API Reference

wacli (WhatsApp)

Health file — check ~/.wacli/.health BEFORE any wacli command:

  • status=connected → proceed
  • status=needs_auth or status=needs_reauth → prompt user for QR scan
CommandUsageOutput
wacli doctor --jsonCheck auth/connected/lock/FTS{data: {authenticated, connected, lock_held, fts_enabled}}
wacli chats list --jsonAll chats{data: [{JID, Name, Kind, LastMessageTS}]}
gog CLI (Gmail/Calendar)
CommandUsageOutput
gog calendar events primary --today --jsonToday's calendar eventsCalendar events
gog gmail search -j --results-only --no-input --max 30 "in:inbox"Search inboxJSON array of threads

Agent Teams support

If CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1 is set, use Agent Teams when gathering briefing data in parallel. This enables:

  • Agents share context and can coordinate mid-flight
  • You can steer priorities in real-time
  • Agents report progress as they complete

Team setup (only when flag is enabled):

TeamCreate("go-team")
Agent(team_name="go-team", name="infra-scanner", prompt="Check ECS health, Vercel status, and CI failures across all clusters")
Agent(team_name="go-team", name="inbox-scanner", prompt="Scan unread messages across WhatsApp, Email, Slack, Telegram, Notion")
Agent(team_name="go-team", name="pr-scanner", prompt="Find open PRs needing action — reviews, CI fixes, merge-ready")
Agent(team_name="go-team", name="sprint-scanner", prompt="Check Linear sprint progress and GSD phase state across projects")

If the flag is NOT set, use standard fire-and-forget subagents.

Pre-gathered data

All data below was collected by shell scripts in <10 seconds:

Infrastructure
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ops-infra 2>/dev/null || echo '{"clusters":[],"error":"infra check failed"}'
Git Status (all projects)
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ops-git 2>/dev/null || echo '[]'

GSD State (active roadmaps)
for d in $(jq -r '.projects[] | select(.gsd == true) | .paths[]' "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/registry.json" 2>/dev/null); do
  expanded="${d/#\~/$HOME}"
  if [ -f "$expanded/.planning/STATE.md" ]; then
    alias=$(basename "$expanded")
    phase=$(grep -m1 'current_phase' "$expanded/.planning/STATE.md" 2>/dev/null | head -1 || echo "unknown")
    progress=$(grep -m1 'progress' "$expanded/.planning/STATE.md" 2>/dev/null | head -1 || echo "unknown")
    echo "$alias: $phase | $progress"
  fi
done
External Projects (non-repo)
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ops-external 2>/dev/null || echo '[]'
Calendar (today)
gog calendar events primary --today --json 2>/dev/null | head -20 || echo "calendar unavailable"

Your task

Analyze ALL the pre-gathered data above and present it as a morning briefing. Follow the ops-briefing output style.

Format:

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
 OPS ► MORNING BRIEFING — [DATE]
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

FIRES (fix now)
[table of production issues, CI failures, broken deploys]

PRs NEEDING ACTION
[table: repo, PR#, title, status, action needed]

PORTFOLIO DASHBOARD
[table: project, phase, branch, uncommitted, CI, next action]

EXTERNAL PROJECTS
[table: alias, source, status, details — from ops-external data]

MARKETING
 Health: [N]/100 ([Healthy/Warning/Critical])  |  Blended ROAS: [X]x  |  Top channel: [channel]
 Meta: $[X] spent (7d) [X]x ROAS  |  Google: $[X] spent (7d) [X]x ROAS  |  Email: [N] subs
[If health < 70: "⚠ Run /ops:marketing optimize for recommendations"]
[If no marketing configured: "(marketing not configured — /ops:marketing setup)"]

UNREAD
[WhatsApp: N, Email: N, Slack: check MCP, Notion: N items, Calendar: N events today]

TODAY'S PRIORITIES (ranked by revenue impact + urgency)
1. [action] — [project] — [why]
2. ...
3. ...

──────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Marketing section data source: Read from ops-marketing-dash pre-gathered output (see Pre-gathered data section). If marketing data is present in the dash output, compute the health score inline (see ops-marketing SKILL.md health score formula). If ops-marketing-dash is not configured or returns empty marketing data, show (marketing not configured — /ops:marketing setup).

Priority ranking: fires > degraded infra > CI failures > unread comms > ready-to-merge PRs > revenue-generating GSD work > stale projects.

If $ARGUMENTS contains a project alias, focus the briefing on that project only.

Show full SKILL.md (224 more words)Show less

After the briefing, use batched AskUserQuestion calls (max 4 options each) for the "What's next?" prompt. Show the top 3 priority actions + [More...] in the first call, then remaining actions + [/ops-yolo — let me run your business today] in the second call. Route to the appropriate ops skill or project.

For Slack counts: if the pre-gathered data shows "count": -1, use mcp__claude_ai_Slack__slack_search_public_and_private with query in:channel (NOT is:unread — scan full recent activity) to get actual message counts. Do this as a parallel tool call while analyzing other data.

For Notion counts: if NOTION_MCP_ENABLED=true and pre-gathered data shows Notion as available, use mcp__claude_ai_Notion__notion-search with query: "" sorted by last_edited_time descending to surface recently active pages. Then call mcp__claude_ai_Notion__notion-get-comments on the top results to find comments needing response. Note: Notion search does not support date range filters — sort by recency and limit to the first 10-20 results instead.


Native tool usage

Tasks — briefing action tracking

After presenting the briefing, create a TaskCreate for each recommended priority action. As the user works through them (or delegates via skill routing), update with TaskUpdate. This gives continuity across the session.

Cron — scheduled briefings

After the first briefing, offer to schedule recurring briefings via AskUserQuestion:

  [Schedule daily at 9am]  [Schedule weekday mornings]  [No schedule]

Use CronCreate to set up the schedule. Show existing schedules with CronList.

WebFetch — calendar enrichment

When gog calendar fails, use WebFetch with the Google Calendar API as fallback:

WebFetch(url: "https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events?timeMin=<today>T00:00:00Z&timeMax=<today>T23:59:59Z")

Questions about Ops Go

What does Ops Go do?

Token-efficient morning briefing. An agent skill from davepoon/buildwithclaude. Ops Go is an agent skill from davepoon/buildwithclaude. Token-efficient morning briefing.

When should I use Ops Go?

Ops Go fits situations like: tasks that involve Shell scripting; tasks that involve Email management.

How do I install Ops Go in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add davepoon/buildwithclaude --skill ops-go -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (plugins/claude-ops/skills/ops-go in davepoon/buildwithclaude) into .claude/skills/ops-go in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Ops Go in Codex?

Run `npx skills add davepoon/buildwithclaude --skill ops-go -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (plugins/claude-ops/skills/ops-go in davepoon/buildwithclaude) into .agents/skills/ops-go in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Ops Go in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add davepoon/buildwithclaude --skill ops-go -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/ops-go, .gemini/skills/ops-go, .github/skills/ops-go and .opencode/skills/ops-go in your project.

What does Ops Go need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Ops Go needs the command-line tools its instructions call (jq). Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Bash, Read, Grep, Glob, Skill, Agent, TeamCreate, SendMessage, AskUserQuestion, TaskCreate, TaskUpdate, TaskList, CronCreate, CronList, WebFetch.

Does Ops Go access the network?

SKILL.md names 1 domain. In commands or code: googleapis.com; the agent is likely to contact it when it follows the instructions. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Ops Go safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (pre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: bash)), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Ops Go use?

Ops Go is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Ops Go use?

About 2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 8k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Ops Go?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Ops Go: Traul Message Search (dandaka/traul, 113 stars), Add Gmail (sbusso/claudeclaw, 194 stars), Pp Respondio (mvanhorn/printing-press-library, 2.1k stars) and Executive Digest (mgonto/executive-assistant-skills, 118 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.

Who maintains Ops Go?

davepoon (a GitHub user) maintains it in davepoon/buildwithclaude, which has 3,604 GitHub stars. The repository holds 245 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on October 6, 2026.
