SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When running a self-hosted agent session, it can be hard to confirm that custom skills and MCP servers were actually loaded. This Skill provides a deterministic probe that returns a fixed marker line proving the configuration took effect. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Skill Load Verification: Responds with the exact line SKILL_PROBE=amber-orbit when asked to verify agent configuration. - MCP Server Check: When asked to check documentation, queries the openai_docs MCP server and appends MCP_PROBE=used to the response. - Use Case: After deploying a self-hosted agent with custom plugins, ask the agent to verify its configuration and confirm the probe markers appear, proving the skill and MCP wiring are active. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to verify its configuration and confirm it responds with the SKILL_PROBE marker line.

Frequently Asked Questions about configuration-probe

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify a self-hosted agent loaded my custom skill?▼

Ask the agent to verify its configuration. If the configuration-probe skill loaded correctly, it responds with the exact line SKILL_PROBE=amber-orbit, confirming the skill is active in the session.

How to check if an MCP server is connected to my agent?▼

Ask the agent to check documentation. The skill queries the openai_docs MCP server and includes MCP_PROBE=used after the skill line, confirming the MCP server is reachable and functional.

What does SKILL_PROBE=amber-orbit mean?▼

It is a fixed marker string returned by the configuration-probe skill. Seeing this exact line in the agent's response proves the configured skill was loaded into the self-hosted session.

Why is the probe marker not appearing in my agent's response?▼

The marker only appears if the skill directory was correctly placed and loaded by the self-hosted session. Check that the skill is installed under the plugins skills path and that the session was restarted after configuration.

Can this probe test anything besides skill loading?▼

It covers two checks: skill loading via the SKILL_PROBE line and MCP server availability via the MCP_PROBE marker using openai_docs. It does not validate other configuration aspects like model settings or permissions.
