ssl-proxy-troubleshootSystematic workflow for troubleshooting SSL/proxy connectivity issues with government websites
Ssl Proxy Troubleshoot is an agent skill from HKUDS/OpenSpace. Systematic workflow for troubleshooting SSL/proxy connectivity issues with government websites
Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file.
The repository describes itself as: "OpenSpace: The Skill Management Layer for AI Agents" -- https://open-space.cloud/. The licence is MIT.
6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3827781. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are python).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
web.archive.orgwebcache.googleusercontent.comFrom URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Ssl Proxy Troubleshoot loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 29 tokens; SKILL.md has 405 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.
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.
The full file from HKUDS/OpenSpace at commit 3827781, republished under its MIT licence (© HKUDS). 405 words, ~1,896 tokens.

This skill also uses 1 other file; get the full folder from GitHub.This skill provides a systematic approach to diagnosing and resolving SSL certificate and proxy connectivity issues when accessing government websites, which often have stricter security configurations than commercial sites.
First, identify what type of connectivity problem you're facing:
import requests
import ssl
url = "https://example.gov/data"
# Test basic connectivity
try:
response = requests.get(url, timeout=10)
print(f"Status: {response.status_code}")
except requests.exceptions.SSLError as e:
print(f"SSL Error: {e}")
except requests.exceptions.ProxyError as e:
print(f"Proxy Error: {e}")
except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError as e:
print(f"Connection Error: {e}")
except Exception as e:
print(f"Other Error: {e}")Government sites sometimes have misconfigured redirects or support only specific protocols:
urls_to_try = [
"https://example.gov/data",
"http://example.gov/data", # Try unencrypted
"https://www.example.gov/data", # Try www subdomain
"http://www.example.gov/data",
]
for url in urls_to_try:
try:
response = requests.get(url, timeout=10, verify=False)
if response.status_code == 200:
print(f"Success with: {url}")
break
except Exception as e:
print(f"Failed {url}: {e}")Only use this for debugging. If it works, the issue is SSL certificate-related:
# Option A: Disable verification entirely (debug only)
response = requests.get(url, verify=False, timeout=30)
# Option B: Use custom SSL context with relaxed settings
import ssl
ssl_context = ssl.create_default_context()
ssl_context.check_hostname = False
ssl_context.verify_mode = ssl.CERT_NONE
response = requests.get(url, verify=False, timeout=30)Warning: Never use verify=False in production. If this is the only working option, document the SSL issue and seek alternative data sources.
Government networks often require specific proxy configurations:
# Option A: Disable proxy entirely
session = requests.Session()
session.trust_env = False # Ignore environment proxy settings
response = session.get(url, timeout=30)
# Option B: Explicitly set proxy
proxies = {
"http": "http://proxy.example.com:8080",
"https": "http://proxy.example.com:8080",
}
response = requests.get(url, proxies=proxies, timeout=30, verify=False)
# Option C: Try without any proxy configuration
import os
os.environ.pop("HTTP_PROXY", None)
os.environ.pop("HTTPS_PROXY", None)
os.environ.pop("http_proxy", None)
os.environ.pop("https_proxy", None)
response = requests.get(url, timeout=30)Government data is often mirrored or available through alternative access points:
# Common alternative patterns for government sites
alternative_urls = [
url.replace(".gov", ".gov.uk"), # Regional variations
url.replace("data.", "api."), # API subdomain
url.replace("https://", "https://archive."), # Archive mirror
url.replace("/data", "/download"), # Alternative path
]
# Check for data.gov or similar portals
portal_search = f"site:data.gov {topic_keyword}"Some clients handle SSL/proxy differently:
# Try urllib instead of requests
import urllib.request
import ssl
ssl_context = ssl._create_unverified_context()
response = urllib.request.urlopen(url, context=ssl_context, timeout=30)
# Try curl via subprocess
import subprocess
result = subprocess.run(
["curl", "-k", "-L", "--max-time", "30", url],
capture_output=True,
text=True
)When all troubleshooting attempts fail after 5-10 iterations:
# Search for the same data from different sources
search_queries = [
f"{dataset_name} site:epa.gov",
f"{dataset_name} site:data.gov",
f"{dataset_name} state database",
f"{dataset_name} public download",
]# Try Wayback Machine
wayback_url = f"https://web.archive.org/web/*/{original_url}"
# Check for cached versions
# Try Google Cache: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:{url}Many government datasets have REST APIs even when web interfaces fail:
# Common API patterns
api_endpoints = [
url.replace("/portal", "/api"),
url + "/api/v1/data",
url + "/rest/data",
]If data is critical and unavailable:
| Issue Type | Symptom | Recommended Action |
|---|---|---|
| SSL Certificate | SSLError, CERT_VERIFY_FAILED | Try verify=False for debug, then find alternative source |
| Proxy Blocking | ProxyError, Connection refused | Set trust_env=False, try direct connection |
| Timeout | ReadTimeout, ConnectTimeout | Increase timeout, try different client |
| 403/401 Errors | HTTP status errors | Check for required headers, authentication |
| DNS Failure | Name resolution error | Try IP address directly, check alternative domains |
verify=False is required, flag this as a security concerndef robust_government_request(url, max_attempts=5):
"""Attempt to fetch government URL with multiple fallback strategies."""
strategies = [
{"verify": True, "trust_env": True, "timeout": 30},
{"verify": False, "trust_env": True, "timeout": 30},
{"verify": False, "trust_env": False, "timeout": 30},
{"verify": False, "trust_env": False, "timeout": 60},
]
for i, config in enumerate(strategies[:max_attempts]):
