Ops

Tools

Ops Plugin

• Compatible with all agents and OSes.
• Zero-setup, just make sure you're az-logged into the appropriate tenant.
• Provides easy access to ARO HCP Grafana/Prometheus metrics and Kusto logs for ARO HCP and Classic.
  • (Not all Classic Kusto endpoints are accessible due to permissions; also there's no Grafana for Classic.)

Installation

/plugin marketplace add openshift-online/aro-ai-tools
/plugin install ops@aro-ai-tools

Now reload plugins / restart the agent and ask it, e.g. "which ARO HCP Kusto instances can I query" or "which ARO Classic Kusto instances can I query".

Note: If your client supports it, you should enable marketplace autoupgrade as it won't be on by default.. (Claude Code has this feature, Copilot CLI doesn't.)

Standalone Skills

All skills, whether part of a plugin or not, can be installed on their own.

1. Run the skills installer

   npx skills@latest add openshift-online/aro-ai-tools
   

2. Pick the skills and agents you want.
3. Done (npx skills --help for more).

Contributing

The lifecycle of a skill is split into two parts

Standalone Skill

1. You do something.
2. You make a skill of it.
3. You use the skill multiple times and refine it.
4. You have the thought that it might be of use to others.
5. You send in a PR adding the skill into the skills/ directory.

If you found it useful enough to refine how it works, who knows, maybe others will.

Things to consider:

• Was this a temporary task or something people will be doing long term (and therefore maintaining a skill for it makes sense).
• How hard is it to use? Will it work immediately or do people need to set up elaborate environments first.
• How hard is it to review? Is it a large verbose black box or can it be reviewed in under a minute by people wondering if they'd like to try it out? (See grill-me for the gold standard.)
• (A common theme of all the points above is – what's the chance anyone other than you will actually take the time to install your skill and then use it more than once.)
• Will you maintain it? If a PR comes in, will you review it?

Plugin Skill

The bar is considerably higher here.

1. Your skill is being used by multiple people and forms a basis of a common workflow.
2. Those people agree it should be available out of the box in a plugin.
3. At this point you can send in a PR to move your skill into a plugin (or to create a new plugin if interested parties agree to use it).
