What it does

Ops Credentials is an agent skill from Lifecycle-Innovations-Limited/claude-ops. OPS on-demand: This skill should be used when the user asks to "which keys are set", "missing…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with Stripe. 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 which keys are set

Example prompts

  • “which keys are set”
  • “/ops-credentials”

Requirements

  • A credential in STRIPE_SECRET_KEY
  • A credential in HOMEY_LOCAL_TOKEN
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, AskUserQuestion

Workflow steps

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

  1. Shell env ($STRIPE_SECRET_KEY, etc.)
  2. $OPS_DATA_DIR/preferences.json (.revenue.stripe.secret_key, etc., including doppler:KEY references that get resolved live)
  3. macOS Keychain (security find-generic-password -s -w)
  4. Dashlane (dcli password --output json)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6a4340b. 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
    • Read
    • AskUserQuestion

    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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • STRIPE_SECRET_KEY
    • HOMEY_LOCAL_TOKEN
    • HOMEY_CLOUD_TOKEN

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

Context cost

Ops Credentials loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 28 tokens; SKILL.md has 415 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~28
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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.

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, Read, AskUserQuestion

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.

OPS ► CREDENTIALS

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).

CLI/API Reference

CommandOutput
bin/ops-credentialsHuman table — configured + missing per service
bin/ops-credentials --jsonJSON array, one entry per credential
bin/ops-credentials --service stripeFilter to one integration

The bin script is the source of truth. It scans these sources in order and reports the FIRST hit per credential:

  1. Shell env ($STRIPE_SECRET_KEY, etc.)
  2. $OPS_DATA_DIR/preferences.json (.revenue.stripe.secret_key, etc., including doppler:KEY references that get resolved live)
  3. macOS Keychain (security find-generic-password -s <name> -w)
  4. Dashlane (dcli password <keyword> --output json)

Values shorter than 12 chars print as •••; longer values print as first6•••last4.

Your task

When the user runs /ops:credentials:

  1. Run bin/ops-credentials and present the output verbatim — it's already formatted for the user's terminal (compact mode for SSH/mobile, table layout otherwise).

  2. Offer follow-ups via AskUserQuestion (max 4 options per Rule 1):

What would you like to do next?
  [Configure a missing service — pick one to set up now]
  [Re-audit a specific service]
  [Export to JSON]
  [Done]
  1. On "Configure missing": list missing services 4-at-a-time via AskUserQuestion. For each pick, call the /ops:setup <service> skill.

  2. On "Re-audit specific": ask for the service name and run bin/ops-credentials --service <name>.

  3. On "Export to JSON": run bin/ops-credentials --json and write the result to /tmp/ops-credentials-audit-$(date +%s).json. Print the path.

Why this skill exists

Claude Code's plugin settings UI cannot introspect external credential stores. If a user has STRIPE_SECRET_KEY in macOS Keychain or klaviyo_api_key in Doppler, the settings panel shows those fields as empty (because the value isn't stored in Claude Code's user-config). The user can't tell at a glance which integrations they've already wired up.

/ops:credentials solves that — one command, one table, complete picture of which integrations are ready to use vs which still need /ops:setup.

Homey Pro (Home Automation)

FieldValue
Service nameHomey Pro
CategoryHome Automation
KeysHOMEY_LOCAL_URL, HOMEY_LOCAL_TOKEN, HOMEY_CLOUD_TOKEN, HOMEY_ID
Storage$PREFS_PATH → .home_automation.homey_local_url, .homey_local_token, .homey_cloud_token, .homey_id
RequiredHOMEY_LOCAL_URL, HOMEY_LOCAL_TOKEN
OptionalHOMEY_CLOUD_TOKEN (off-LAN fallback), HOMEY_ID (cloud API only)

Rotation: Revoke the current token at https://my.homey.app/manager/tokens, generate a new one, then rerun /ops:setup --section home to save the replacement.


Privacy guarantees

  • Never prints raw values. All output is masked.
  • Never copies values to disk. Reads happen in-process; the JSON export contains only {service, label, configured, masked, source}, never the raw secret.
  • Read-only. Does not write to keychain, Doppler, or preferences.

Mobile / SSH (Rule 7)

When $SSH_CONNECTION / $SSH_CLIENT / $SSH_TTY is set or $OPS_MOBILE=1, the bin script auto-switches to compact one-line-per-cred format. Skill output should pass it through unchanged.

Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Ops Credentials in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Lifecycle-Innovations-Limited/claude-ops --skill ops-credentials -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/ops-credentials, .gemini/skills/ops-credentials, .github/skills/ops-credentials and .opencode/skills/ops-credentials in your project.
