  • Calls make and brew

What it does

Setup Env is an agent skill from akash-network/node. Set up development environment by loading direnv. Must be run before any make targets (tests, builds, linting).

Its SKILL.md is about 300 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 Development, covering Linting and formatting. The repository describes itself as: Source code for Akash node, a secure, transparent, and peer-to-peer cloud computing network. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Linting and formatting

Example prompts

  • “/setup-env”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Allow and load direnv for the project root. This sets all required variables (AKASH_ROOT, AKASH_DIRENV_SET, GOTOOLCHAIN, GOPATH, GOWORK…
  2. Load environment into current shell
  3. Validate

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5193e54. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • make
    • brew

    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

Setup Env loads about 304 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 30 tokens; SKILL.md has 111 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~30
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~304

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.

description
Set up development environment by loading direnv. Must be run before any make targets (tests, builds, linting).

Instructions

Before running any make target (make test, make bins, make lint-go, etc.), the direnv environment must be loaded. Without it, make will fail with errors about AKASH_DIRENV_SET or AKASH_ROOT not being set.

Steps

  1. Allow and load direnv for the project root. This sets all required variables (AKASH_ROOT, AKASH_DIRENV_SET, GOTOOLCHAIN, GOPATH, GOWORK, cache paths) adds tool directories to PATH, and runs make cache to download build tools and wasmvm libraries:

    bash
    direnv allow

  2. Load environment into current shell:

    bash
    eval "$(direnv export bash 2>&1 | grep -v '^direnv:')"

  3. Validate:

    bash
    [[ "$AKASH_DIRENV_SET" == "1" ]] && echo "direnv loaded" || echo "ERROR: direnv not loaded"

Notes

  • If direnv fails, check that required system tools are installed: make, unzip, wget, curl, npm, jq, readlink, pv, lz4.
  • On macOS, Homebrew make (v4+) must be on PATH: export PATH="$(brew --prefix)/opt/make/libexec/gnubin:$PATH".
