What it does

Ops Projects is an agent skill from Lifecycle-Innovations-Limited/claude-ops. OPS on-demand: This skill should be used when the user asks to "portfolio dashboard", "gsd projects"…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k 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 portfolio dashboard

Example prompts

  • “portfolio dashboard”
  • “gsd projects”
  • “/ops-projects”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Grep, Glob, WebFetch, AskUserQuestion

Workflow steps

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

  1. Preferences: cat ${OPS_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace}/preferences.json — read owner, timezone
  2. Daemon health: cat ${OPS_DATA_DIR}/daemon-health.json — show service status in dashboard footer
  3. GSD registry: cat ${OPS_DATA_DIR}/registry.json — primary project index (updated by daemon twice daily + on-demand with --sync)

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
    • Grep
    • Glob
    • WebFetch
    • AskUserQuestion

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • 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

Ops Projects loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 29 tokens; SKILL.md has 323 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~29
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

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, Read, Grep, Glob, WebFetch, 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.

Runtime Context

Before rendering, load:

  1. Preferences: cat ${OPS_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace}/preferences.json — read owner, timezone
  2. Daemon health: cat ${OPS_DATA_DIR}/daemon-health.json — show service status in dashboard footer
  3. GSD registry: cat ${OPS_DATA_DIR}/registry.json — primary project index (updated by daemon twice daily + on-demand with --sync)

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).

Quick commands

Discovery

ops-gsd-registry-sync.sh does not assume a fixed workspace directory. It walks $HOME and records every .planning/ directory it finds, so any layout works.

  • OPS_GSD_SCAN_ROOTS — colon-separated extra roots to walk besides $HOME (use this for projects that live outside the home directory)
  • OPS_GSD_SCAN_DEPTH — how deep to walk (default 5)
  • OPS_GSD_SCAN_EXCLUDE — colon-separated extra directory names to skip
  • OPS_GSD_INCLUDE_WORKTREES=1 — also scan .worktrees/ (skipped by default, since worktrees duplicate an existing project)

Build noise (node_modules, .git, .venv, dist, caches) is always skipped.

--sync flag

If --sync or --refresh is passed, run the registry sync script first, then display the updated dashboard:

bash
bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/ops-gsd-registry-sync.sh 2>&1

Show "Refreshing..." while running, then present the full updated dashboard.


Error states

  • If registry.json is missing/empty: show a one-shot sync prompt
    No project registry found. Run /ops projects --sync to build it.
  • If daemon health shows action_needed: surface that in a warning banner
