What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you confirm that a fresh Instar deployment starts correctly, owns the right polling behavior, and fails visibly when something is broken, instead of forcing you to debug from scattered logs after the fact.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Throwaway Deploy Verification: Deploys Instar into a disposable agent home so you can safely validate changes before or after shipping.
  • Lease and Health Checks: Confirms the Telegram poll-ownership lease exists, is fresh, is well formed, and does not expose the raw bot token.
  • Deterministic Crash Detection: Scans server and lifeline logs for fatal, memory, and abort signatures so crash analysis is reproducible.
  • Use Case: Run this when you change the deploy, lifeline, or startup path and want a clean PASS or FAIL report from a controlled test agent.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to run the test-as-self verification against a throwaway Instar directory and report whether the deploy is healthy.
