Set up and start the local ZizkaDB development stack. An agent skill from ZIZKA-AI-SL/ZizkaDB.

  • Works in 2 steps: Open http://localhost:3001/login → Click "Open my dashboard" — no OTP…
  • Setting up ZizkaDB for the first time
  • SKILL.md covers First-time setup (one command), What starts, Dev login (no email required) and Dev API key, plus 4 more sections
  • Calls bash, docker and git; reaches github.com; needs OPENAI_API_KEY and JWT_SECRET

What it does

Zizkadb Dev Setup is an agent skill from ZIZKA-AI-SL/ZizkaDB. Set up and start the local ZizkaDB development stack. Use when setting up ZizkaDB for the first time, restarting the local stack, or debugging service connectivity.

Its SKILL.md is about 540 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 Development, covering AI governance, Debugging and GitOps. It works with Python, Docker, Model Context Protocol and TypeScript. The repository describes itself as: Audit trail database for AI agents. Tamper-evident, checksum-backed decision logs with session replay and time-travel debugging to support EU AI Act Article 12 record-keeping…

When your agent uses it

  • Setting up ZizkaDB for the first time
  • Restarting the local stack
  • Debugging service connectivity

Example prompts

  • “/zizkadb-dev-setup”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Docker
  • A credential in OPENAI_API_KEY
  • A credential in JWT_SECRET

Workflow steps

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

  1. Open http://localhost:3001/login
  2. Click "Open my dashboard" — no OTP needed in dev mode

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e217be2. 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:

    • bash
    • docker
    • git
    • curl
    • openssl

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • OPENAI_API_KEY
    • JWT_SECRET

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

Context cost

Zizkadb Dev Setup loads about 535 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 131 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~535

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: notes

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

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:74
    Copy `infra/.env.example` → `infra/.env` and fill in:

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 131 words (~535 tokens).

“This starts all services using Docker Compose (or falls back to native if Docker is unavailable) and runs the causal lineage demo.”
