What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e43bfae. 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 yaml).

  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.

• Compatibility

  Claude Code, ChatGPT, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, OpenClaw, any AI agent

  From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Keyword Cluster Architect loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 115 tokens; SKILL.md has 741 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~115

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~2.4k

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

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.
