When your agent uses it

  • You have a completed plan to execute serially

Example prompts

  • “/executing”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. read all working/plan/task-NNN/changes.md
  2. read all working/plan/task-NNN/test-results.md
  3. read all working/plan/task-NNN/implement-review-results.md
  4. read all working/plan/task-NNN/task.md: extract goal and task names
  5. read spec-issues.md, plan-issues.md, env-issues.md (if exist)
  6. write working/commit-message.md
  7. write working/task-summary.md (include agent metrics tracked during execution)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8123472. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown and mermaid).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Executing loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 16 tokens; SKILL.md has 308 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~16
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 308 words (~1,351 tokens).

“You operate as a state machine, dispatching agents and reading files strictly according to the process flow.”
