What it does

Inngest is an agent skill from Asymmetric-al/core. Router for official Inngest agent skills. Use when you are unsure which specific Inngest skill applies.

Its SKILL.md is about 520 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `references/expressions.md` and `references/upstream.md`).

It sits in Backend & APIs. The repository describes itself as: A high-performance, enterprise-grade Next.js 16 application for mission-focused non-profit organizations. Built for high impact teams. The licence is AGPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • You are unsure which specific Inngest skill applies

Example prompts

  • “/inngest”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c30c8ff. 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:

    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Inngest loads about 518 tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 28 tokens; SKILL.md has 202 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~28
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~518
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~5.5k

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.
