ChatGPT Skill

Use the official Telesis skill to let ChatGPT and Codex operate your owned monitoring surface: authenticate, inspect organizations, create uptime checks, and validate endpoints without leaking tokens.

View plugin

Safe monitor changes

Creates and updates Telesis services and checks idempotently, with explicit organization selection.

Cost-aware defaults

Uses hourly checks for core surfaces and longer intervals for metadata endpoints unless tighter alerting is requested.

Repo-ready package

Ships as both a ChatGPT/Codex skill and a plugin wrapper with logo, brand metadata, and helper scripts.

Install From The Git Repo

The publishable plugin lives in the public Telesis skill repository at plugins/telesis-dev. The standalone skill source also lives at .agents/skills/telesis-dev.

Installbash

git clone https://github.com/skunkworq/telesis-dev.git
cd telesis-dev
codex plugin marketplace add .
codex plugin add telesis-dev@telesis

Auth stays local

The skill uses the Telesis CLI auth flow or local environment variables. It should never print bearer tokens or the contents of ~/.telesis/credentials.json.

Connect the CLI and MCP server

The skill supplies operational guidance. To execute checks from an agent, follow the CLI setup guide and register the local MCP server. Its nine tools include runtime diagnostics and organization discovery. Playwright scripts require the Docker sandbox; real LLM probes require provider credentials and consume provider credits.

Example Prompt

Invoke the skill directly when you want an agent to create or audit Telesis monitors.

Prompttext

Use $telesis-dev to create hourly uptime checks for:
- https://example.com
- https://api.example.com/health

Idempotent Monitor Spec

The bundled helper script accepts a JSON spec and creates or updates services and checks without deleting existing monitoring.
