Space and Environment Navigation

Use this skill to navigate and understand the structure of your Octopus Deploy instance across spaces, environments, and projects.

When to Use This Skill

• Exploring a new or unfamiliar Octopus instance
• Understanding the space and environment structure
• Mapping project-environment relationships
• Verifying user permissions and access
• Getting oriented in multi-space instances
• Discovering available projects and environments

Available Tools

This skill provides access to navigation tools:

• List all spaces in the Octopus instance
• List environments within a space
• List projects and their configurations
• Get current user information and permissions

Common Workflows

See navigation-patterns.md for step-by-step navigation and exploration patterns.

Required Setup

Ensure these environment variables are configured:

• OCTOPUS_SERVER_URL: Your Octopus server URL
• OCTOPUS_API_KEY: Your Octopus API key with read access

Use Cases

Instance Discovery

• "What spaces exist in this Octopus instance?"
• "Show me all environments in the Production space"
• "List all projects in the Development space"

Access Verification

• "What permissions do I have?"
• "Which spaces can I access?"
• "Am I an administrator?"

Structure Understanding

• "How is this Octopus instance organized?"
• "What's the relationship between projects and environments?"
• "What environments are available for deployments?"
