What it does

Spatie Ops is an agent skill from freekmurze/dotfiles. Operate Spatie and Freek's hosting with private credentials. Use for requests to move a site to Laravel Cloud, inspect or change DigitalOcean (DO) droplets, manage Forge servers, deploy or troubleshoot Cloud apps, inspect hosting costs or performance, or change Openprovider DNS. Provides authentication and routes to the relevant provider or migration skill.

Its SKILL.md is about 930 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/authentication.md` and `references/credentials.example.json`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Backend development. It works with Laravel.

When your agent uses it

  • Requests to move a site to Laravel Cloud
  • Change DigitalOcean (DO) droplets
  • Manage Forge servers
  • Troubleshoot Cloud apps

Example prompts

  • “/spatie-ops”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8874280. 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

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    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

Spatie Ops loads about 931 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 362 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~93
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~931
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~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 362 words (~931 tokens).

“Start here for hosting, servers, DNS and migrations. A request such as "move this site to Cloud", "delete this DO droplet", "what runs on this Forge server?" or "check Cloud performance" should reach this skill without the user naming it.”
