Example prompts

  • “Use the currency-converter skill to convert monetary amounts between fiat currencies using a stub exchange-rate table”
  • “/currency-converter”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): opencode

Workflow steps

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

  1. Surface a stub response to the user in the form
  2. Explicitly tell the user this is a demonstration skill that does

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5a8ba69. 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.

  • Compatibility

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Currency Converter loads about 287 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 138 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~287

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.

currency-converter

Use this skill when the user asks to convert a monetary amount from one fiat currency to another (for example, "convert 100 USD to EUR").

This is a demonstration skill. It does not consult any live exchange-rate API and ships no helper script; the agent surfaces a canned mid-market rate and the converted amount inline, so the demo catalog has a second skill to rank against apigee-policy-top10 without consuming external quota.

When invoked, do this:

  1. Surface a stub response to the user in the form currency-converter: stub conversion -- <amount> <FROM> -> <converted> <TO> using a plausible canned mid-market rate (e.g. 1 USD ≈ 0.92 EUR).
  2. Explicitly tell the user this is a demonstration skill that does NOT consult a live exchange-rate provider; production use would require wiring a real exchange-rate API and adding the corresponding runtime_iam permissions.
