What it does
Dxos Operations is an agent skill from dxos/dxos. Guide for defining and implementing Operations in DXOS. Use when creating operation definitions, writing handlers, structuring operation modules, using OperationHandlerSet, or migrating from the old FunctionDefinition API.
Its SKILL.md is about 3.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: TypeScript implementation of the DXOS protocols, SDK, toolchain and Composer.
When your agent uses it
- Creating operation definitions
- Writing handlers
- Structuring operation modules
- Using OperationHandlerSet
Example prompts
- “/dxos-operations”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Imports first (project import order: builtin → external → @dxos → internal).
- export default immediately after imports — Definition.pipe(Operation.withHandler(...)) so the entry point is obvious when opening the file.
- Everything else below — private constants, file-local types, and helper functions used by the handler. Handlers run only after the module…
- Only the default export — do not add named exports from handler modules. Share types and operation definitions from definitions.ts (or…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2e6b92a. 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 (its code samples are typescript).
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 no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Dxos Operations loads about 3.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 60 tokens; SKILL.md has 829 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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 829 words (~3,774 tokens).
“An Operation is the unit of callable logic in DXOS. It combines a definition (typed schema + metadata) with a handler (Effect-based runtime logic). Operations replace the older FunctionDefinition / defineFunction API.”
