What it does

Solo Maintainer is an agent skill from serithemage/serverless-openclaw. Operates this repository as a solo maintainer across PR triage, issue handling, release work, deploys, ops checks, cost checks, security review, and docs drift. Use when the user wants you to just handle maintenance work end-to-end.

Its SKILL.md is about 320 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants you to just handle maintenance work end-to-end
  • Tasks that involve Issue triage
  • Tasks that involve Security review

Example prompts

  • “Use the solo-maintainer skill to operate this repository as a solo maintainer across PR triage, issue handling, release work, deploys, ops checks…”
  • “/solo-maintainer”

Workflow steps

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

  1. clear the inbox
  2. run a guard sweep
  3. ship only when the request explicitly asks for a release, deploy, or merge batch

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 504300d. 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

    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

Solo Maintainer loads about 322 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 62 tokens; SKILL.md has 98 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~62
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~322

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 98 words (~322 tokens).
