At a glance

Discover skills beyond those shown in the session prompt by listing every configured skill library and its skills.

What it does

Find Skills is an agent skill from aliou/pi-harness. Discover skills beyond those shown in the session prompt by listing every configured skill library and its skills. Use when the available skills are not enough, or to browse which skill libraries are configured.

Its SKILL.md is about 420 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file.

The repository describes itself as: My pi setup: tools and prompts for multi model agentic coding. This is overkill and might not work if you're not me.

When your agent uses it

  • The available skills are not enough
  • Browse which skill libraries are configured

Example prompts

  • “/find-skills”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 79c9b89. 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 (JavaScript), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • node

    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

Find Skills loads about 420 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 182 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~56
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~420

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 182 words (~420 tokens).

“The session prompt only lists a subset of available skills. When you need more, discover them from the same source the ? autocomplete uses: the completion config at $PI_CODING_AGENT_DIR/settings/completion.json (default ~/.pi/agent/settings/completion.json).”
