vps-ops-toolkit SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

vps-ops-toolkit from khaledsaeed18/dotclaude is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add khaledsaeed18/dotclaude/vps-ops-toolkit@git:20261005.5100bf0

Pins git:20261005.5100bf0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Install host operations on a VPS, with a cron health check that alerts on change, restore-verified encrypted database backups, and an installer. Use when a server has no monitoring or backups, or when adding a resource to them.

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

A server is operated when something other than a person notices a problem and when the database can be rebuilt from a copy that was proven to restore. The toolkit lives in the API repository under `ops/`, is installed by one command, and reports through a webhook only when the set of problems changes.

## Hard rules: never break these

- **Installing or changing cron, logrotate or anything under `/etc` is a production action.** The owner authorises `ship.sh`; you prepare and review it.
- **A backup that was not restored is not a backup.** Keep only archives whose restore fingerprint matched the source snapshot. Nothing is kept from a failed run.
- **The server holds only the public encryption key.** The private key stays with the owner, offline; a compromised server cannot read old backups.
- **Alerts only on change.** Every run logs; the webhook fires when a problem appears, persists with a change, or resolves. No heartbeat spam.
- **Never store webhook URLs or keys in the repository.** They live in `/etc/<prefix>-*.env`, mode 600, created once from the examples and never overwritten by the installer.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add khaledsaeed18/dotclaude/vps-ops-toolkit@sha256:f4d8f7e957459460

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261005.5100bf0, 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.
