What it does
Script Registry is an agent skill from aspi6246/Claude-Code-Skills-for-Academics. Use when creating a new .Rmd script in Code/, editing the registry: YAML block of an existing script in Code/, moving a Code/.Rmd into Archive/, or when the user says "update registry", "show registry", or "which script makes X". Before writing any new Code/.Rmd script, read Code/REGISTRY.md first and surface existing matches before starting fresh. After any YAML change, run Code/Claude Scripts/buildregistry.R to refresh Code/REGISTRY.md.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k 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: A collection of Skills for academics.
When your agent uses it
- Creating a new .Rmd script in Code/
- Editing the registry: YAML block of an existing script in Code/
- Moving a Code/.Rmd into Archive/
- The user says update registry
Example prompts
- “update registry”
- “show registry”
- “which script makes X”
- “/script-registry”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Per-script cards — one section per Code/*.Rmd, with Purpose, Paper target, In-paper flag, Last modified, Inputs, and Outputs split into…
- Processed Data — Dependency Graph — for each intermediate file: which script produces it, and which scripts consume it.
- Drift Warnings — mismatches between the YAML and the actual I/O calls detected in each script's code. Four categories: undeclared inputs…
- Scripts Without Registry Metadata — any Code/*.Rmd that hasn't been given a registry: block yet.
- Claude Working Scripts — an index of every Code/_Claude Scripts/*.R (name, last-modified date, purpose) so a future session can find prior…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8a8f112. 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 and bash).
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
Script Registry loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 121 tokens; SKILL.md has 818 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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 818 words (~1,747 tokens).
“Single source of truth: the registry: YAML block inside each Code/*.Rmd script. Derived view: Code/REGISTRY.md, rebuilt by Code/_Claude Scripts/build_registry.R.”
