What it does

Cross Tier Review is an agent skill from papadopouloskyriakos/agentic-chatops. Cross-tier review protocol — chain of verification for REVIEW REQUEST messages from Claude Code (Tier 2). Includes 5-step checklist and REVIEWJSON output format.

Its SKILL.md is about 690 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: 3-tier agentic ChatOps (n8n + GPT-4o + Claude Code) implementing all 21 patterns from "Agentic Design Patterns" — solo operator managing 137 devices.

Example prompts

  • “/cross-tier-review”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash

Workflow steps

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

  1. CLAIM CHECK: What factual claims does the analysis make? Use the exec tool to
  2. ASSUMPTION CHECK: What assumptions are implicit? Flag any that are unsupported
  3. ALTERNATIVE CHECK: What alternative root causes were NOT considered? Name at
  4. RISK CHECK: Could the proposed action cause secondary failures? Check for
  5. RECURRENCE CHECK: If this host/alert has a knowledge base entry, does the proposed

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 473f057. 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

    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 no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

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

Context cost

Cross Tier Review loads about 691 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 342 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~691

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.

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

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 342 words (~691 tokens).

“When you see "REVIEW REQUEST:" in an infra room, Claude Code (Tier 2) is asking you to review its work because its confidence was below 0.7. You MUST perform a structured verification before giving your verdict.”
