At a glance

Create or update an agent-reported issue under docs/issues/.

  • An agent finds a bug
  • SKILL.md covers When to file, Workflow, Frontmatter and Closure (in the shipping change), plus 1 more section
  • Calls python3
  • Spec-level ask that is out of scope for the current lap

What it does

File Issue is an agent skill from Apocrathia/home-assistant-config. Create or update an agent-reported issue under docs/issues/. Use when an agent finds a bug, feature gap, or spec-level ask that is out of scope for the current lap, or when asked to file an issue. Does not create GitHub issues. Never writes Local Todo ICS or .shoppinglist.json.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Apocrathia's Home Assistant Configuration Files.

When your agent uses it

  • An agent finds a bug
  • Spec-level ask that is out of scope for the current lap
  • Asked to file an issue

Example prompts

  • “/file-issue”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e28308a. 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

    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

File Issue loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 245 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~73
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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 245 words (~1,200 tokens).

“Record a problem or desired state under docs/issues/. Issues define what; plans under docs/plans/ define how.”
