What it does

Issue Tracer is an agent skill from ZaxbyHub/opencode-swarm. Use when asked to trace, investigate, root-cause, reproduce, plan, fix, resolve, close, or prepare a PR for an issue, bug report, defect, regression, failing test, or confusing runtime behavior. This Codex adapter delegates to the canonical protocol at .opencode, which owns the Full-Resolution Contract, reproduction, reasoning-guided localization, no-gap fix planning, recurrence-class eradication, independent critic and implementation review, and PR-ready closure.

Its SKILL.md is about 380 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Internationalization, QA and bug reports and Failing and flaky tests. The repository describes itself as: Architect-centric agentic swarm plugin for OpenCode. Hub-and-spoke orchestration with SME consultation, code generation, and QA review. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Prepare a PR for an issue
  • Confusing runtime behavior

Example prompts

  • “/issue-tracer”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b63a4bd. 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

Issue Tracer loads about 383 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 120 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
~120
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~383

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.

Issue Tracer

Follow the canonical workflow at ../../../.opencode/skills/issue-tracer/SKILL.md.

Codex Tools

  • File-edit: apply_patch. Tasklist: update_plan. Web: web (cite URLs).
  • Shell: rg, git, gh, tests, builds. Subagent dispatch: per your runner config.

Gates and Delegation

Plan critic (Phase 3), implementation review (Phase 4.5), and final critic (Phase 4.6) require subagent delegation when available. Receive only diff and artifacts from the canonical protocol's .opencode/skills/issue-tracer/references/critic-gate.md. When unavailable, record the failure, run the labeled fallback, and disclose it.

Scripts and Publication

Trace directory created by .opencode/skills/issue-tracer/scripts/trace-init.sh <issue-slug> (from repo root). Deferred-work gate: .opencode/skills/issue-tracer/scripts/scan-deferred.sh. Publication via .agents/skills/commit-pr/SKILL.md only when user asks to commit/push/open PR.
