Public Issue

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Defence-in-depth misses
• Other bugs that do not warrant coordinated private disclosure

Example prompts

• “/public-issue”

Requirements

• Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Needs the gh CLI authenticated with permission to open issues on the upstream GitHub repository. Needs network access to api.github.com and the scrutineer API. github.com upstreams only. Finding-scoped.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f3407bf. 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:

  • gh

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

• Network

  Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

  • 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.

• Compatibility

  Needs the gh CLI authenticated with permission to open issues on the upstream GitHub repository. Needs network access to api.github.com and the scrutineer API. github.com upstreams only. Finding-scoped.

  From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Public Issue loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 549 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~57

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.3k

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

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

File a low-severity finding as an ordinary public GitHub issue after explicit analyst confirmation. Use for hardening gaps, defence-in-depth misses, and other bugs that do not warrant coordinated private disclosure.
