What it does

Oss Hunter is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Automatically hunt for high-impact OSS contribution opportunities in trending repositories.

Its SKILL.md is about 640 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `bin/hunter.py` and `skill-report.json`).

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

Example prompts

  • “/oss-hunter”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Repository Discovery
  2. Issue Extraction
  3. Feasibility Analysis
  4. The Dossier

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

    Ships script files (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    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

Oss Hunter loads about 639 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 26 tokens; SKILL.md has 310 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~26
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~639

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 310 words (~639 tokens).

“A precision skill for agents to find, analyze, and strategize for high-impact Open Source contributions. This skill helps you become a top-tier contributor by identifying the most "mergeable" and influential issues in trending repositories.”
