What it does

Cobbler is an agent skill from aigorahub/elves. Invoke Elves Cobbler, the default orchestration model for fitted answers and agent routing. Use when the user types /cobbler or asks for Cobbler coordination in Claude Code.

Its SKILL.md is about 400 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows. The repository describes itself as: Autonomous multi-batch development skill for Claude Code and Codex. They work while you sleep. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user types /cobbler
  • Asks for Cobbler coordination in Claude Code

Example prompts

  • “/cobbler”

Workflow steps

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

  1. For one-off Quick Cobbler answers, stay read-only and stateless.
  2. For implementation or active-run requests, route work through Cobbler-first Elves coordination;
  3. Use Claude Code subagents first when independent lenses or workers help.
  4. Fall back to direct analysis or direct implementation when subagents are unavailable.
  5. Return one fitted answer with Recommendation, Why this fits, Strongest dissent, Risks,

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit fba17a3. 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

Cobbler loads about 395 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 175 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~395

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.

Cobbler

This is an Elves-managed Claude Code alias for /cobbler.

This alias invokes Cobbler, Elves' default orchestration model. Use the installed elves skill's ## Cobbler instructions as the source of truth. Classify the request first: one-off advice uses Quick Cobbler, while implementation or active-run requests use Cobbler-first Elves coordination. For non-trivial tasks, use the main skill's harness loop: capability scan, route and medium selection, context packet, execute agents/tools/skills, collect evidence, fit answer, present/record, and reclassify when evidence changes the task. Use route and medium selection before dispatch.

Default behavior:

  1. For one-off Quick Cobbler answers, stay read-only and stateless.
  2. For implementation or active-run requests, route work through Cobbler-first Elves coordination; worker agents may edit scoped files under the normal Elves rules.
  3. Use Claude Code subagents first when independent lenses or workers help.
  4. Fall back to direct analysis or direct implementation when subagents are unavailable.
  5. Return one fitted answer with Recommendation, Why this fits, Strongest dissent, Risks, Next move, and Confidence.

Normal Cobbler use must not require OpenRouter or any external provider key.
