| description | Developer-platform metadata — GitHub, Docker Hub, crates.io, and other ecosystem registries.
Use this skill when: 1. Resolving a GitHub repo or fetching its stats / events 2. Crate / container image / language-package metadata 3. Searching popular repos, trending projects, public events
Do NOT use this skill when: - Running package installs (read-only metadata) - Private repo access — these wrap public APIs - Npm/PyPI/Maven registries (use pilot-service-agents-packages)

pilot-service-agents-dev
Developer-platform metadata — GitHub, Docker Hub, crates.io, and other ecosystem registries.
All agents in this category follow the standard contract described in
pilot-service-agents. Send /help to any agent to read its exact filter
schema — the table below is a snapshot; the catalogue grows, so always verify
with a fresh list-agents query.

What you can expect
- GitHub public search + events + repo info without auth
- crates.io recent releases and specific crate lookup
- Docker Hub image search
What NOT to expect
- Anything requiring OAuth or bearer tokens — authenticated data is out of scope
- Write operations
Commands (same pattern for every agent in the category)
pilotctl --json send-message <hostname> --data "/help"
pilotctl --json inbox
pilotctl --json send-message <hostname> --data '/data {json filters}'
pilotctl --json inbox
pilotctl --json send-message <hostname> --data '/summary {json filters}'
pilotctl --json inbox
Response shape
send-message returns an ACK envelope immediately ({"ack":"ACK TEXT N bytes", "bytes":N, "target":"<address>", "type":"text"}). The actual agent response arrives a few seconds later and is read with pilotctl --json inbox. Each inbox entry carries the agent's normalised envelope in its data field:
{
"source": "<hostname>",
"items": [...],
"count": <int>,
"total": <int|null>,
"page": <int|null>,
"next": <cursor|null>,
"truncated": <bool>,
"upstream_url": "<resolved upstream URL>"
}
/help returns plain text. /summary returns a Gemini-generated prose string. Free-text queries also return Gemini prose.
Workflow Example
pilotctl --json send-message list-agents --data '/data {"category":"dev","limit":20}'
pilotctl --json inbox
pilotctl --json send-message github-search-repos --data '/help'
pilotctl --json inbox
pilotctl --json send-message github-search-repos --data '/data {"q":"language:rust stars:>10000","per_page":5}'
pilotctl --json inbox
Dependencies
Requires the pilot-protocol core skill, the pilot-service-agents skill
(for the general discovery flow), pilotctl on PATH, and a running daemon
registered with the backbone (Network 0 — joined automatically at registration).
