Manage project recipes/how-to sheets by listing, creating, updating, researching, or applying a recipe.

  • SKILL.md covers Actions, References and Assets
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

12 Cook is an agent skill from ai-driven-dev/framework. Manage project recipes/how-to sheets by listing, creating, updating, researching, or applying a recipe. Use for recipe, cook, /cook, list, new, update, research, apply.

Its SKILL.md is about 470 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 19 other files, including reference files and assets (for example `actions/01-list.md`, `actions/02-upsert.md` and `actions/03-research.md`).

The repository describes itself as: Marketplace Framework AI-Driven Dev : Context Engineering, Plugins, Agents, Skills, Hooks, Templates, SDLC. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/12-cook”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6e30640. 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.

    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

12 Cook loads about 466 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 183 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~44
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~466
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.1k

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.

Cook

Maintains recipe how-to sheets. Project recipes live in aidd_docs/recipes/; bundled recipes ship inside this skill under assets/recipes/.

Actions

#ActionRoleInput
01listList every recipe as a tablenone
02upsertCreate or update one recipe from the templaterecipe topic + fields
03researchSurvey modern alternatives, gaps, and counter-intuitive winsrecipe or topic
04applyExecute a recipe on the project as a confirmed todo listrecipe

Run list to survey project and bundled recipes, research to gather insights, upsert to author one, apply to run an existing one against the project. Always run research before authoring or substantially updating a recipe — never draft from memory alone. Run list first when the user names no recipe. Before running an action, read its file in actions/, not only the table or assets.

References

  • references/recipe-locations.md: where project and bundled recipes live, how resolution works, and when writes target each home.
  • references/recipe-contract.md: the rules every recipe file follows; upsert writes to it.

Assets

  • assets/recipe-template.md: the canonical recipe scaffold upsert renders from, and the shape list parses.
  • assets/recipes/: bundled recipes shipped with this skill.
