What it does

Package Organize is an agent skill from Apocrathia/home-assistant-config. Restructure, create, or reorganize Home Assistant packages following the homelab's packages/ directory layout (areas, functions, integrations, private, projects, routines, system, toys) and naming conventions. Use when restructuring existing packages, creating new package files, moving entities between packages, consolidating or splitting large package files, or adding new areas.

Its SKILL.md is about 890 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

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

When your agent uses it

  • Restructuring existing packages
  • Creating new package files
  • Moving entities between packages
  • Splitting large package files

Example prompts

  • “/package-organize”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Determine target package — Use nomenclature.md to select the right directory
  2. Check existing files — Read the target package file to see if the entity already exists
  3. Follow naming conventions — Use prefixes from nomenclature.md
  4. Maintain file structure — Keep consistent section headers and ordering
  5. New areas — Create via Home Assistant UI (Settings → Areas). Add packages/areas/.yaml for location-specific config; keep nomenclature.md…
  6. Validate — Run config-validate skill after changes

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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are yaml).

    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

Package Organize loads about 890 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 278 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~100
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~890

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 278 words (~890 tokens).
