At a glance

Runs the mcloud commands for logging in, checking who is authenticated, and choosing the active organization, project and environment.

  • Setting up the Medusa Cloud CLI on a new machine
  • SKILL.md covers Constraints, Commands, Auth Methods and Examples
  • Calls jq; needs MCLOUD_TOKEN
  • Switching between Medusa Cloud accounts or organizations

What it does

The skill wraps six commands of the Medusa Cloud CLI: `login`, `logout`, `whoami`, `use`, `version` and `signup`. `whoami --json` reports the user, the auth method and the active context, and the skill pipes it through `jq` to confirm the session is authenticated and scoped before any command that changes state. `use` sets the active organization, project and environment with `-o`, `-p` and `-e`, or clears them with `--clear`.

Several commands need an interactive terminal. `login`, `signup` and `use` without flags fail in CI, Docker or piped input, so the skill points to the `MCLOUD_TOKEN` environment variable or explicit flags there. When `MCLOUD_TOKEN` is set, stored credentials are ignored and `login` is rejected until you unset it. Its tool permissions are limited to `mcloud whoami`, `use`, `version`, `logout` and `jq`.

When your agent uses it

  • Setting up the Medusa Cloud CLI on a new machine
  • Switching between Medusa Cloud accounts or organizations
  • Checking that a session is authenticated before a deploy or other state-changing command
  • Pointing later commands at a specific project and environment

Example prompts

  • “Check whether I am logged in to Medusa Cloud and show the active project.”
  • “Switch the mcloud context to the staging environment of our storefront project.”
  • “Log out of mcloud and clear the stored credentials.”
  • “We run in CI, so authenticate mcloud with the access key from MCLOUD_TOKEN.”

Requirements

  • The `mcloud` CLI
  • `jq`
  • A Medusa Cloud account or an access key in `MCLOUD_TOKEN`
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(mcloud whoami*), Bash(mcloud use*), Bash(mcloud version*), Bash(mcloud logout*), Bash(jq*)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 066132d. 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(mcloud whoami*)
    • Bash(mcloud use*)
    • Bash(mcloud version*)
    • Bash(mcloud logout*)
    • Bash(jq*)

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • jq

    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:

    • MCLOUD_TOKEN

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

Context cost

Medusa Cloud CLI Authentication loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 283 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~66
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 283 words (~1,057 tokens).

“Execute authentication and context commands for the Medusa Cloud CLI.”
