description: Validate Octagon plugin configuration and run a lightweight smoke test across the main Octagon MCP workflows. Use when checking whether the plugin is configured correctly, debugging auth, or verifying tool availability.

Octagon API Smoke Test

Use this skill to confirm that the Claude plugin and Octagon MCP are configured correctly.

Smoke test sequence

Run a simple octagon-agent request
Run a simple octagon-deep-research-agent request
If a Kalshi URL is available, run octagon-prediction-markets-agent
If an event ticker is available, run prediction_markets_history

MCP calls

General agent:

{
  "server": "octagon-mcp",
  "toolName": "octagon-agent",
  "arguments": {
    "prompt": "Give me a one-sentence summary of Apple's latest quarter."
  }
}

Deep research:

{
  "server": "octagon-mcp",
  "toolName": "octagon-deep-research-agent",
  "arguments": {
    "prompt": "Research the current AI infrastructure spending cycle in one short paragraph."
  }
}

Failure triage

Missing auth or invalid key: check plugin api_key
Unexpected environment or staging issue: check api_base_url
Prediction market failures mentioning Kalshi URL: supply a valid Kalshi market URL
Credit or entitlement failures: report the exact error and stop

Success criteria

At least one Octagon tool returns usable text
Tool failures, if any, are classified clearly as config, entitlement, input, or service issues
