What it does

Create Dashboard is an agent skill from amplitude/builder-skills. Builds comprehensive Amplitude dashboards from requirements or goals, organizing charts into logical sections with appropriate layouts. Use when creating a complete dashboard from scratch or assembling existing charts into a cohesive view.

Its SKILL.md is about 1000 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: Open-source AI skills for product managers — battle-tested by PMs at Amplitude.

  • Creating a complete dashboard from scratch
  • Assembling existing charts into a cohesive view

Example prompts

  • “Use the create-dashboard skill to build comprehensive Amplitude dashboards from requirements or goals, organizing charts into logical sections with…”
  • “/create-dashboard”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Discovery (if unfamiliar with the feature)
  2. Define Dashboard Purpose
  3. Gather or Create Charts
  4. Plan the Layout
  5. Create the Dashboard
  6. Add Context

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 51838c2. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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

Create Dashboard loads about 999 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 64 tokens; SKILL.md has 434 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~64
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~999

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 434 words (~999 tokens).

“Create new team or initiative dashboards, organize scattered charts, build executive reporting, or set up review cadence dashboards.”
