Agent Helper Scripts

detecting-agent-environment

Utilities and patterns for detecting execution environment (CI/CD vs local, network access, available ports, timeouts). Use when you need to adapt scripts or workflows based on where the agent is running, or when creating helper scripts that need environment-aware behavior.

Agent Helper Scripts

Utilities for GitHub Copilot agents working on Y-Not Radio site.

Environment Detection

Use detect-environment.sh to adapt scripts to different environments:

# Source the utility
source bin/​agent-helpers/​detect-environment.sh

# Print environment info
print_environment

# Check environment
if detect_ci; then
  echo "Running in CI/​CD"
  # Use optimized workflow
fi

if ! detect_network; then
  echo "Network restricted - cannot pull packages"
  exit 1
fi

# Get appropriate timeout
TIMEOUT=$(get_timeout "service_ready")
timeout $TIMEOUT bash -c 'until service_ready; do sleep 5; done'

Creating New Helper Scripts

When creating helper scripts:

  1. Source environment detection

    source "$(dirname "$0")/​detect-environment.sh"
    print_environment
    
  2. Use appropriate timeouts

    TIMEOUT=$(get_timeout "npm_install")
    timeout $TIMEOUT npm install
    
  3. Provide clear output

    echo "✅ Success message"
    echo "⚠️  Warning message"
    echo "❌ Error message"
    
  4. Exit with proper codes

    exit 0  # Success
    exit 1  # Failure
    
  5. Log to .agent-tmp/​

    mkdir -p .agent-tmp
    command 2>&1 | tee .agent-tmp/​command.log

  • agent-automation-infrastructure skill - Current automation state and pre-built images

Performance Baselines

Scripts should respect these baselines:

OperationExpectedWarningFailure
Container start< 60s60-120s> 120s
npm install< 120s120-300s> 300s
Service ready< 180s180-360s> 360s

If exceeding "Warning" thresholds, report performance issues in PR.
