What it does

Diagnose is an agent skill from kbanc85/claudia. Check memory system health and troubleshoot connectivity issues. Use when memory commands aren't working, at session start if something seems wrong, or when user asks about memory status. See also: memory-health for the data-quality dashboard once connectivity is confirmed.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/basic.yaml` and `references/common-issues.md`).

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Data cleaning and MCP servers. It works with Model Context Protocol and Python. The repository describes itself as: Terminal-based AI chief of staff. Remembers relationships, tracks commitments, helps you think strategically. Runs on Claude Code.

When your agent uses it

  • Memory commands arent working
  • At session start if something seems wrong
  • User asks about memory status

Example prompts

  • “/diagnose”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  1. Check .mcp.json Configuration
  2. Run Preflight Check
  3. Check Session Manifest
  4. Check Standalone Daemon
  5. Check Database Directly
  6. Check Embedding Model
  7. Report Results

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit eb63cec. 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:

    • npx
    • python3
    • python
    • pip
    • curl
    • sqlite3
    • ollama
    • brew

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, pip and curl, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Diagnose loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 71 tokens; SKILL.md has 427 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~71
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.6k

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 427 words (~1,768 tokens).
