RouterOS scripting language and CLI configuration idioms for .rsc files and interactive commands. Use when: writing or reviewing RouterOS scripts, scheduler/netwatch/on-event snippets, idempotent CLI config, :local/:global/:foreach/:do syntax, [find] selectors, print as-value handling, script permissions, or when the user mentions .rsc, RouterOS script, scripting tips, or CLI config automation.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# RouterOS Scripting & CLI Config RouterOS scripts (`.rsc`, `/system/script`, scheduler `on-event`, Netwatch hooks, and interactive CLI snippets) use RouterOS's own language. It is **not shell, Lua, Python, or Tcl**. For the syntax baseline, see [references/syntax.md](./references/syntax.md). This skill focuses on the traps that LLMs are likely to confidently get wrong. ## Do Not Use Interactive Row Numbers in Scripts Interactive `print` output shows temporary row numbers (`0`, `1`, `2`...) for the current console buffer. They are **not stable object IDs** and are not usable inside scripts. ```routeros # WRONG in scripts — "1" is only an interactive print-buffer row number /ip/route/set 1 gateway=3.3.3.3 # Better — internal IDs have a * prefix, but can change if objects are removed/re-added /ip/route/set *1 gateway=3.3.3.3 # Best — resolve the target at runtime /ip/route/set [find dst-address="0.0.0.0/0"] gateway=3.3.3.3 ``` For generated config, use stable selectors such as `comment=`, `name=`, or a unique address/list value. Internal IDs are visible in `print as-value` as `.id=*HEX`. ## Treat `[find]` Results as ID Arrays …

How to install
mdr add tikoci/routeros-skills/routeros-scripting@sha256:63758235bb57053cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260528.c965957, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
