What it does

Oss Maintainer Workflow is an agent skill from hashgraph-online/awesome-codex-plugins. Use when maintaining or releasing a public open-source repository, including issue triage, pull request review, dependency or security remediation, release preparation, and source-linked adoption reporting.

Its SKILL.md is about 920 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/maintenance-evidence-contract.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Pull requests and Issue triage. The repository describes itself as: A curated list of awesome OpenAI Codex / ChatGPT plugins, skills, and resources. The 1 Codex Marketplace. See live plugins at: https://hol.org/plugins/best-codex-plugins. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Releasing a public open-source repository
  • Including issue triage
  • Pull request review
  • Security remediation

Example prompts

  • “/oss-maintainer-workflow”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Inspect the public repository, open issues, open pull requests, last release,
  2. Call plan_oss_maintenance_cycle with source-backed counts. Do not estimate
  3. Select the smallest meaningful change. Security fixes and maintainer-requested
  4. Record either a real issue link or a concise rationale. Do not manufacture an
  5. Implement on a reviewable branch and run the repository's relevant tests,
  6. Open or update a pull request. Link the diff, checks, review findings, and
  7. Update user documentation and CHANGELOG.md.
  8. Call review_oss_release_readiness. Do not tag or publish while it reports
  9. After the pull request is merged, tag and publish the documented version.
  10. Record only real adoption signals in the follow-up artifact.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 78497e5. 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.

    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

Oss Maintainer Workflow loads about 923 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 430 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~58
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~923
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.4k

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.

Use when maintaining or releasing a public open-source repository, including issue triage, pull request review, dependency or security remediation, release preparation, and source-linked adoption reporting.

OSS Maintainer Workflow

Run one small, verifiable maintenance cycle for a public repository. The goal is not activity volume. The goal is a real maintainer outcome backed by public issues, pull requests, CI, security checks, release notes, and honest adoption evidence.

Input Artifacts

  • Public repository URL and license
  • Current issue and pull request queue
  • Latest release and changelog
  • CI and dependency/security status
  • Real user feedback, external listings, or downstream references when they exist

Output Artifact

  • docs/oss-maintenance/<cycle>/01-intake-and-signals.md
  • docs/oss-maintenance/<cycle>/02-maintenance-plan.md
  • docs/oss-maintenance/<cycle>/03-change-and-review-evidence.md
  • docs/oss-maintenance/<cycle>/04-release-readiness.md
  • docs/oss-maintenance/<cycle>/05-adoption-follow-up.md

Required MCP Tool

  • plan_oss_maintenance_cycle
  • review_oss_release_readiness

Required Flow

  1. Inspect the public repository, open issues, open pull requests, last release, CI, dependency audit, and security policy.
  2. Call plan_oss_maintenance_cycle with source-backed counts. Do not estimate stars, downloads, users, or vulnerabilities.
  3. Select the smallest meaningful change. Security fixes and maintainer-requested review changes outrank speculative features.
  4. Record either a real issue link or a concise rationale. Do not manufacture an issue solely to make the repository look active.
  5. Implement on a reviewable branch and run the repository's relevant tests, build, validation, and security audit.
  6. Open or update a pull request. Link the diff, checks, review findings, and rollback path in the maintenance evidence.
  7. Update user documentation and CHANGELOG.md.
  8. Call review_oss_release_readiness. Do not tag or publish while it reports blocked.
  9. After the pull request is merged, tag and publish the documented version.
  10. Record only real adoption signals in the follow-up artifact.

Evidence Rules

  • Prefer GitHub URLs and reproducible command output over prose claims.
  • A directory listing is ecosystem evidence; it is not proof of active users.
  • A star is a repository signal; it is not automatically a user or deployment.
  • A normal contribution to someone else's project does not make the contributor a primary or core maintainer.
  • If no user feedback exists, say so and invite real testing. Never fabricate it.

Hard Stops

  • No release with unresolved critical or high security findings.
  • No release without fresh passing tests and required build or plugin validation.
  • No release without documentation, changelog, and review evidence.
  • No invented stars, downloads, users, issues, pull requests, or maintainer roles.
  • No large speculative feature when a smaller security, compatibility, or maintainer-requested fix is available.

Pressure Test Responsibility

  • Block a cosmetic release whose only purpose is repository activity.
  • Block a release supported only by stale CI or an old security scan.
  • Block adoption claims that cannot be linked to a public source.
  • Block a claim of core-maintainer status without repository permission or sustained review and release responsibility.
