What it does

Remove Option Or Flag is an agent skill from getsentry/sentry, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Remove a Sentry option or FlagPole feature flag whose rollout is finished, in the correct PR order across sentry, getsentry, and sentry-options-automator. Use when deleting an option from defaults.py, removing a flag from temporary.py, cleaning up a flag that reached 100%, unsetting a value in the options automator, or diagnosing an automator run that reports an unregistered option. Trigger on "remove this feature flag", "delete this option", "clean up the flag", "the flag is fully rolled out", "deprecate an…

Its SKILL.md is about 3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `SOURCES.md` and `SPEC.md`).

It works with Sentry. The repository describes itself as: Developer-first error tracking and performance monitoring.

When your agent uses it

  • Deleting an option from defaults.py
  • Removing a flag from temporary.py
  • Cleaning up a flag that reached 100%
  • Unsetting a value in the options automator

Example prompts

  • “remove this feature flag”
  • “delete this option”
  • “clean up the flag”
  • “/remove-option-or-flag”

Workflow steps

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

  1. preconditions
  2. collapse the call sites
  3. remove the value from the automator
  4. remove the registration

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 99b4c2b. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • rg

    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

Remove Option Or Flag loads about 3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 148 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,115 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~148
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~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); 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 1,115 words (~2,971 tokens).

“Removal takes three PRs in a fixed order, each deployed — not merely merged — before the next one merges. sentry and getsentry roll out region-by-region via GoCD; the automator runs its own pipeline. Wrong order either flips production behavior…”
