Questions about cover
What does the cover skill do?
Offer to cover someone else's on-call shift. Lists upcoming shifts on a team or schedule and creates an override placing you on the chosen one after explicit confirmation. Write action - never executes without confirming.
How do I install cover?
In a terminal: npx skills add Rootly-AI-Labs/rootly-claude-plugin --skill cover. The skills CLI asks which agents to install it for. In Claude.ai you can upload the skill folder as a ZIP under Settings → Skills.
Which agents can use cover?
Skills use the open SKILL.md format, which Claude Code, Claude.ai, the Claude API, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and other agents support.
Is cover safe to use?
Our automatic check found no risky patterns (piped shell scripts, hidden characters, secret access, prompt overrides). It is not a full audit – read the SKILL.md and any scripts before installing.
