What it does

Ledger is an agent skill from Lifecycle-Innovations-Limited/claude-ops. OPS on-demand: This skill should be used when the user asks to "ops ledger", "what did we handle", or…

Its SKILL.md is about 460 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Business operating system for Claude Code — 57 skills, 21 agents, smart daemon. Unified inbox (WhatsApp/Email/Slack/Telegram), autonomous PR merge, full-AWS monitoring, revenue… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asks to ops ledger
  • What did we handle

Example prompts

  • “ops ledger”
  • “what did we handle”
  • “/ledger”

Requirements

  • A credential in CLAIM_KEY
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash

Workflow steps

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

  1. Awaiting owner (top of digest, sorted newest first)
  2. Drafted by either system (needs send / merge / approve)
  3. Done autonomously in last 24h, grouped by source (claude-ops, Perplexity)
  4. Skipped or expired claims

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ee9c784. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash

    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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • CLAIM_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Ledger loads about 460 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 27 tokens; SKILL.md has 136 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~27
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~460

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash

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.

Bash

/ops:ledger

Load ops-rules before acting. Public repo (no personal data). Outbound: one draft → one approval → one send. If AskUserQuestion / Workflow are missing, follow Rule 10 in ops-rules (Hermes: numbered options / two-turn Telegram card; delegate_task).

Single source of truth shared between claude-ops (Mac) and Perplexity (off-Mac). Stored at ~/.claude-ops/ledger.jsonl and mirrored to Notion DB "Ops Ledger".

Usage

bash
# Default: human digest of last 24h
/ops:ledger

# What needs owner's attention right now?
/ops:ledger awaiting

# What did Perplexity do while I was at the gym?
/ops:ledger query --source perplexity --since -PT4H

# What's been touched on this Gmail thread?
/ops:ledger query --claim-key gmail:thread:19e690a55d213f52

Behavior

Wraps ~/.claude-ops/bin/ledger (the CLI from this skill). Always reports:

  1. Awaiting owner (top of digest, sorted newest first)
  2. Drafted by either system (needs send / merge / approve)
  3. Done autonomously in last 24h, grouped by source (claude-ops, Perplexity)
  4. Skipped or expired claims

Conventions every command in this plugin follows

Before doing real work, run:

bash
~/.claude-ops/bin/ledger query --claim-key "$CLAIM_KEY" --since -PT24H

If result has any entry with status in (in_progress, done, drafted, awaiting_user), SKIP — the other system already handled it. Don't duplicate.

After doing work:

bash
~/.claude-ops/bin/ledger claim --claim-key "$CLAIM_KEY" --kind <kind> --brand <brand> \
  --title "<title>" --source claude-ops
# ... do work ...
~/.claude-ops/bin/ledger resolve <id> --status done|drafted|awaiting_user
