What it does

Air Cryptographer is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. This skill should be used when the user asks about "AIR", "algebraic intermediate representation", "ZK constraints", "trace design", "constraint soundness", "polynomial commitments", "FRI", "STARK", "lookup arguments", "permutation arguments", "memory consistency", "transition constraints", "boundary constraints", "vanishing polynomial", "quotient polynomial", "Fiat-Shamir", or needs expert-level cryptographic review of constraint systems.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/review-checklist.md` and `skill-report.json`).

It sits in Security, covering Cryptography. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • Algebraic intermediate representation
  • Constraint soundness
  • Polynomial commitments
  • Lookup arguments

Example prompts

  • “algebraic intermediate representation”
  • “ZK constraints”
  • “trace design”
  • “/air-cryptographer”

Workflow steps

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

  1. All selectors = 0: Do constraints still enforce anything?
  2. Corrupt one column: Can it drift without detection?
  3. Attack last row: Dump inconsistency into wrap-around?
  4. Duplicate/omit memory events: Does global check catch it?
  5. Force product to zero: Exploit grand product boundary?
  6. Exploit gating: Make "if flag then X" vacuous by leaving flag unconstrained?

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 755bc35. 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

Air Cryptographer loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 115 tokens; SKILL.md has 980 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
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.8k

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 980 words (~2,358 tokens).

“Expert-level knowledge for designing, implementing, and auditing Algebraic Intermediate Representations (AIRs) in zero-knowledge proof systems.”

Can I use Air Cryptographer in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add aiskillstore/marketplace --skill air-cryptographer -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/air-cryptographer, .gemini/skills/air-cryptographer, .github/skills/air-cryptographer and .opencode/skills/air-cryptographer in your project.

What does Air Cryptographer need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Air Cryptographer is instructions for the agent only.

Does Air Cryptographer access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Air Cryptographer safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Air Cryptographer use?

No licence was found for Air Cryptographer or its repository. Without one, default copyright applies: ask the author before reusing or redistributing it.

How many tokens does Air Cryptographer use?

About 2.4k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 9.4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 2.4k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
