Watch Run

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: general-misc  ·  Last updated:
Emit-on-event health watcher for a long paired/ab benchmark run, meant to be fed to the Monitor tool (each stdout line becomes one notification) so an unattended 75-min run cannot fail silently. Coverage-first by design — it speaks up on liveness (ALIVE), on new error signatures in the proxy/tee logs (ERROR), on a stall or crash (STALL/DEAD — silence is not success), and on completion (COMPLETE) — not just the happy path. Stall is tracked on the SHADOW (A0) turn-log, which is passthrough with keep-alive OFF so every line is a real turn; the PRIMARY (A5) log also grows from keep-alive pings during idle gaps and would mask a stalled conversation, so it must not drive stall detection. Use it to babysit `.skills/paired` or `.skills/ab` runs whose wall clock exceeds the Monitor's 60-min non-persistent cap (run it persistent).

What does the Watch Run skill do?
Emit-on-event health watcher for a long paired/ab benchmark run, meant to be fed to the Monitor tool (each stdout line becomes one notification) so an unattended 75-min run cannot fail silently. Coverage-first by design — it speaks up on liveness (ALIVE), on new error signatures in the proxy/tee logs (ERROR), on a stall or crash (STALL/DEAD — silence is not success), and on completion (COMPLETE) — not just the happy path.

Is this skill free to install?
Yes. ClaudSkills is an open registry — every skill keeps its source repository's license, and manual install via copy is free. ClaudSkills Pro ($9/mo, $79/yr, or $149 one-time) adds one-click install via the desktop app and a multi-signal Quality Score.
When should I use the Watch Run skill?
Use Watch Run when your Claude Code task falls under the General category — specifically in the general misc area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Watch Run" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at /category/general/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Watch Run skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a SKILL.md file that lives under ~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Watch Run is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the General category.
