Can I use this for non-production environments?

While technically possible, it is optimized for production-impact tasks. For local development setups and dev-only IaC, the devops-engineer in the ring-dev-team plugin is the recommended choice.

How does this differ from the dev-team plugin?

The dev-team handles development-level infrastructure like Docker and CI/CD pipelines, while the ops-team focuses specifically on production-grade operations, service meshes, and live incident response.

What is the ORCHESTRATOR principle in this skill?

It is a mandatory workflow requirement where the main agent must dispatch tasks to specialized sub-agents (like incident-responder) instead of attempting to use tools directly, ensuring production tasks are handled by domain-specific experts.

Why are these agents required to use the Claude Opus model?

Production operations require the highest level of reasoning, risk assessment, and complex analysis to prevent outages or security breaches, making the Opus model the safest and most reliable choice for these tasks.

Cloud Infrastructure

Provides specialized AI agents for production incident response, platform engineering, and cloud infrastructure optimization.

About

The using-ops-team skill introduces a suite of five specialized operations agents designed to handle high-stakes production environments. Built on the ORCHESTRATOR principle, it ensures that domain-specific expertise is applied to tasks like incident management, security audits, and FinOps. By mandating the use of the Claude Opus model and enforcing strict change management protocols, this skill minimizes the risk of production outages and ensures all infrastructure modifications are documented and approved before execution.
