What it does
Staged Discovery is an agent skill from mondoohq/mql. Add staged discovery support to a provider. Use when the user wants to implement staged/phased discovery, break down discovery into stages, add OptionStagedDiscovery support, or optimize a provider's memory usage during discovery. Triggers on requests like "add staged discovery to gcp", "implement staged discovery for aws", "break down discovery for <provider", or "optimize <provider discovery".
Its SKILL.md is about 2.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in DevOps & Cloud. It works with Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, Kubernetes and Microsoft Azure. The repository describes itself as: open source, cloud-native, graph-based query language.
When your agent uses it
- The user wants to implement staged/phased discovery
- Break down discovery into stages
- Add OptionStagedDiscovery support
- Optimize a providers memory usage during discovery
Example prompts
- “s memory usage during discovery. Triggers on requests like”
- “implement staged discovery for aws”
- “break down discovery for <provider”
- “/staged-discovery”
Workflow steps
8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Identify the discovery entry point
- Add the staged discovery router
- Implement Stage 1 (root/top-level scope)
- Implement Stage 2+ (scoped discovery)
- Strip platform IDs from non-targeted intermediate assets
- Gate resource methods at higher scopes (if needed)
- Verify both paths and discovery targets
- Update .lr.versions if new resources were added
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d9f1bd2. 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:
makego
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
Staged Discovery loads about 2.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 104 tokens; SKILL.md has 748 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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 748 words (~2,901 tokens).
“Implement staged (multi-phase) discovery for a provider so that AssetExplorer can traverse the provider's resource hierarchy one level at a time, releasing memory after each scope is closed.”

- staged-discovery
- argument-hint
- <provider-name> (e.g., aws, gcp, k8s, azure)
