What it does

Archestra Docs Writer is an agent skill from archestra-ai/archestra. Use when writing, editing, restructuring, or auditing Archestra documentation under docs/pages/ — new feature docs, page rewrites, sidebar and information-architecture changes, tone or copy fixes, diagrams, and docs screenshots.

Its SKILL.md is about 5.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/audit-and-validation.md` and `references/site-mechanics.md`).

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering UX design, Diagrams and MCP servers. The repository describes itself as: Enterprise AI Platform with guardrails, MCP registry, gateway & orchestrator.

When your agent uses it

  • Auditing Archestra documentation under docs/pages/ — new feature docs
  • Sidebar and information-architecture changes
  • Docs screenshots

Example prompts

  • “/archestra-docs-writer”

Workflow steps

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

  1. The bottom line first: one plain sentence that says what this is, what you do here, or the rule of thumb. No warm-up.
  2. Then the body, as one of
  3. Then at most three "What to know" bullets for the facts a reader could get wrong.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit aa7ab51. 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

Archestra Docs Writer loads about 5.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~8.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 3,477 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~63
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~5.3k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~8.7k

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 3,477 words (~5,327 tokens).

“This skill is the single source of truth for Archestra docs. Read all of it, and read Site Mechanics, before you change a page.”
