/openshell-cli

Guide agents through using the OpenShell CLI (openshell) for sandbox management, gateway registration, provider configuration and refresh, profile management, policy iteration, settings, service exposure, BYOC workflows, and attached-provider inference. Covers basic through advanced multi-step workflows. Trigger keywords - openshell, sandbox create, sandbox exec, sandbox connect, logs, provider create, profile list, profile describe, provider refresh, policy set, policy get, settings, service expose, forward, port forward, BYOC, bring your own container, inference, use openshell, run openshell, CLI usage, manage sandbox, manage provider, gateway add, gateway select.

/debug-openshell-cluster

Debug why an OpenShell gateway deployment is unhealthy, unreachable, or unable to create sandboxes. Use for gateway health failures, Docker/Podman runtime issues, Helm failures, Kubernetes scheduling, TLS or auth, gateway interceptors, supervisor middleware startup or runtime failures, external compute-driver sockets, VM drivers, or sandbox startup. Trigger keywords - debug gateway, gateway failing, deployment failing, helm install failing, cluster health, gateway health, gateway not starting, health check failed, sandbox pending, docker driver, podman driver, kubernetes driver, external driver, compute driver socket, gateway interceptor, supervisor middleware, middleware failed, vm driver.

/generate-sandbox-policy

Generate sandbox security policies from plain-language requirements and optional REST API documentation. Produces L4 or fine-grained L7 network policies and ordered network middleware configuration. Use for API access rules, middleware host selection, failure behavior, or built-in and operator-run middleware attachment. Trigger keywords - generate policy, create policy, update policy, change policy, sandbox policy, network policy, API policy, security policy, allow API, restrict API, network middleware, supervisor middleware.

/debug-inference

Debug inference clients that use an attached provider and its native endpoint, including hosted APIs and host-local Ollama, vLLM, SGLang, TRT-LLM, LM Studio, or NIM. Use for provider attachment, endpoint policy, credential substitution, topology, and migration from the removed managed inference endpoint. Trigger keywords - debug inference, managed inference endpoint, local inference, ollama, lm studio, vllm, sglang, trtllm, NIM, inference failing, model server unreachable, credential_endpoint_mismatch, host.openshell.internal.

/test-release-canary

Manually dispatch and iterate on the Release Canary workflow that smoke-tests published OpenShell artifacts (install.sh on macOS/Ubuntu/Fedora, Helm chart on kind) after each Release Dev publish. Use when changing `.github/workflows/release-canary.yml`, validating a release before tagging, debugging a canary failure, or reproducing a canary job locally. Trigger keywords - release canary, release-canary, canary failed, canary dispatch, test release canary, post-release smoke, install.sh canary, helm chart canary, kind canary, dispatch canary.

/helm-dev-environment

Start up, tear down, and configure the local Kubernetes development environment for OpenShell. Uses k3d (Docker-backed k3s) + Skaffold + Helm. Covers cluster lifecycle, optional add-ons (Keycloak OIDC, Envoy Gateway), HA testing, and port mappings. Trigger keywords - local k8s, local cluster, k3d, skaffold, helm dev, start cluster, stop cluster, tear down cluster, delete cluster, create cluster, helm:k3s, helm:skaffold, local dev environment, dev cluster, k8s dev, envoy gateway local, keycloak local, high availability, HA.
