What it does

Oci is an agent skill from oracle/skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure guidance for designing, operating, and troubleshooting OCI services, including OCI Kubernetes Engine (OKE), OCI Internet of Things Platform, OCI Functions deployment and troubleshooting, and Enterprise AI workflows for OCI Generative AI models, Responses API agents, RAG, cost estimation, governance, private endpoints, hosted agentic applications, and Oracle platform integrations. Use when the user asks about OKE cluster design, Terraform or Resource Manager planning, OKE incident…

Its SKILL.md is about 2.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 53 other files (for example `oke/agents/oke-evidence-collector.md`, `oke/agents/oke-hypothesis-analyst.md` and `oke/agents/oke-lb-log-collector.md`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Cloud networking, Container orchestration and Infrastructure as code. It works with Kubernetes and Terraform. The repository describes itself as: Oracle Skills is a curated, open-source collection of practical, installable skills for working with Oracle technologies. It provides developers, administrators, and AI agents…

When your agent uses it

The user asks about OKE cluster design
Resource Manager planning
OKE incident troubleshooting
Generic VNIC Attachment

Example prompts

“/oci”

Requirements

A Bash shell

Workflow steps

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

Start with the routing table below.
Read only the smallest service file or nested skill that matches the user's task.
Prefer official Oracle documentation and live read-only discovery commands before making design or remediation recommendations.
Ask before running commands that create, update, delete, restart, scale, drain, or otherwise mutate OCI or Kubernetes resources.
Keep OCI-owned design decisions here, and route database-owned SQL, vector, and Select AI implementation details to db/features/.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6c57a52. 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
Ships script files (Shell, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
- docs.oracle.com
- github.com
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

Oci loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 244 tokens; SKILL.md has 678 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~244
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~2.4k

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 (UPL-1.0) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 678 words (~2,440 tokens).

“Use this domain for practical Oracle Cloud Infrastructure guidance. Current content covers OCI Kubernetes Engine (OKE): cluster design, operational troubleshooting, Generic VNIC Attachment (GVA), and Multus multi-interface pod validation. It covers OCI Internet of Things Platform resource discovery, digital twin…”

When should I use Oci?

Oci fits situations like: the user asks about OKE cluster design; resource Manager planning; OKE incident troubleshooting; generic VNIC Attachment.

How do I install Oci in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add oracle/skills --skill oci -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (oci in oracle/skills) into .claude/skills/oci in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Oci in Codex?

Run `npx skills add oracle/skills --skill oci -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (oci in oracle/skills) into .agents/skills/oci in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Oci 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 oracle/skills --skill oci -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/oci, .gemini/skills/oci, .github/skills/oci and .opencode/skills/oci in your project.

What does Oci need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Oci needs a shell for the scripts in its folder. Our summary lists: A Bash shell.

Does Oci access the network?

SKILL.md names 2 domains. As links in the text: docs.oracle.com and github.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

How many tokens does Oci use?

About 2.4k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 9.8k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Oci?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Oci: Platform Engineering (magnus919/agent-skills, 111 stars), Supercheck Infrastructure Deployment (supercheck-io/supercheck, 215 stars), Deploying Applications (ancoleman/ai-design-components, 526 stars) and Devops Excellence (majiayu000/spellbook, 286 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
