What it does

Customize Response Style is an agent skill from AlphaLab-USTC/OhMyCode. Guide for customizing OhMyCode's terminal output style and rendering. Use when user wants to change colors, formatting, or how responses look in the terminal.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Minimal and Customizable CC-Style Coding Agent. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • User wants to change colors
  • How responses look in the terminal

Example prompts

  • “/customize-response-style”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. Quick visual test: ohmycode -p "List python files here" --mode auto
  2. Test tool calls: ohmycode -p "Read pyproject.toml" --mode auto
  3. Test errors: ohmycode -p "Read /nonexistent/file" --mode auto
  4. Test REPL: ohmycode → type a message → /exit

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4d1bb28. 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:

    • python3

    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):

    • rich.readthedocs.io

    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

Customize Response Style loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 373 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

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.

Customize OhMyCode's Response Style

Change how OhMyCode renders output in the terminal — colors, formatting, tool call display, token usage display.

When to Use

  • User says "change the colors", "make output cleaner", "customize the theme"
  • User wants to modify how tool calls, errors, or streaming text are displayed
  • User wants to add/remove elements from the output (e.g., hide token counts)

Where Rendering Happens

All rendering logic is in ohmycode/cli.py → render_stream() function. It consumes events from the conversation loop and prints them using rich.console.Console.

Current rendering:

EventCurrent Style
TextChunkPlain text, streamed character by character
ToolCallStart▶ <tool_name> in cyan + params in dim
ToolCallResult (success)✓ + green output (truncated to 500 chars)
ToolCallResult (error)✗ + red error message
TurnCompleteTokens: prompt=X completion=Y total=Z in dim

How to Customize

Option 1: Edit render_stream() Directly

Open ohmycode/cli.py and find async def render_stream(). Modify the rich markup:

python
# Change tool call header color from cyan to blue
console.print(f"\n[blue]▶ {event.tool_name}[/blue]", highlight=False)

# Add a box around tool results
from rich.panel import Panel
console.print(Panel(output, title="Tool Result", border_style="green"))

# Hide token usage
# Comment out or delete the TurnComplete rendering block
Option 2: Add Rich Themes

Create a custom theme at the top of cli.py:

python
from rich.theme import Theme

ohmycode_theme = Theme({
    "tool.name": "bold magenta",
    "tool.success": "green",
    "tool.error": "bold red",
    "tool.params": "dim italic",
    "status": "dim cyan",
    "prompt": "bold yellow",
})

console = Console(theme=ohmycode_theme)

Then use style names in print calls:

python
console.print(f"▶ {event.tool_name}", style="tool.name")
Option 3: Add Markdown Rendering for AI Responses

Replace plain text streaming with rich Markdown rendering:

python
from rich.markdown import Markdown

# In render_stream(), after collecting all TextChunks for a turn:
if collected_text:
    console.print(Markdown(collected_text))

Trade-off: Markdown rendering requires buffering the full response (no streaming feel). A hybrid approach: stream plain text, then re-render as Markdown after the turn completes.

Option 4: Customize the REPL Prompt

In run_repl(), change the prompt appearance:

python
# Simple change
user_input = session.prompt("ohmycode> ")

# With color (prompt_toolkit style)
from prompt_toolkit.formatted_text import HTML
user_input = session.prompt(HTML("<ansigreen>ohmycode</ansigreen><ansiyellow>></ansiyellow> "))

# With model name
user_input = session.prompt(f"[{config.model}]> ")

Testing Changes

After modifying cli.py:

  1. Quick visual test: ohmycode -p "List python files here" --mode auto
  2. Test tool calls: ohmycode -p "Read pyproject.toml" --mode auto
  3. Test errors: ohmycode -p "Read /nonexistent/file" --mode auto
  4. Test REPL: ohmycode → type a message → /exit

Tips

  • Use rich documentation: https://rich.readthedocs.io/
  • Preview colors: python3 -c "from rich import print; print('[bold red]Red[/bold red] [green]Green[/green]')"
  • Keep changes in render_stream() — don't modify core/loop.py for display concerns
  • The REPL prompt uses prompt_toolkit, not rich — they have different styling systems
