What it does

Remote Collection is an agent skill from hoangsonww/Claude-Code-Agent-Monitor. Configure and troubleshoot CCAM Remote Data Sources that collect Claude Code and Codex history over SSH. Use when adding, editing, testing, syncing, or removing a remote machine, verifying provider paths, or deciding whether to retain or purge imported sessions.

Its SKILL.md is about 270 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

The repository describes itself as: 🚀 A real-time monitoring dashboard for Claude Code & Codex, built with SQLite3, Node.js, Express, React, Vite, TailwindCSS, & WebSockets. It tracks sessions, agent activity… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Removing a remote machine
  • Verifying provider paths
  • Deciding whether to retain
  • Purge imported sessions

Example prompts

  • “/remote-collection”

Workflow steps

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

  1. List current sources with ccam remote-sources.
  2. Validate the host through the user's existing SSH configuration. CCAM stores
  3. Add a source with remote_home and remote_codex_home only when they differ
  4. Test before syncing: ccam remote-sources test .
  5. Sync one source or all sources with ccam remote-sources sync [id].
  6. Use ccam remote-sources update --file patch.json --yes for edits.
  7. Removal retains imported sessions by default. Purging them requires

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1a10d68. 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 bash).

    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

Remote Collection loads about 265 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 70 tokens; SKILL.md has 95 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~70
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~265

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.

Configure and troubleshoot CCAM Remote Data Sources that collect Claude Code and Codex history over SSH. Use when adding, editing, testing, syncing, or removing a remote machine, verifying provider paths, or deciding whether to retain or purge imported sessions.

Remote Collection

  1. List current sources with ccam remote-sources.
  2. Validate the host through the user's existing SSH configuration. CCAM stores no passwords or private keys.
  3. Add a source with remote_home and remote_codex_home only when they differ from the provider defaults.
  4. Test before syncing: ccam remote-sources test <id>.
  5. Sync one source or all sources with ccam remote-sources sync [id].
  6. Use ccam remote-sources update <id> --file patch.json --yes for edits.
  7. Removal retains imported sessions by default. Purging them requires:
bash
ccam remote-sources rm <id> --purge \
  --confirm PURGE_REMOTE_SOURCE_DATA

Always state whether imported data will be kept or deleted before removal.
