What it does
Ship is an agent skill from austintgriffith/ethskills. End-to-end guide for AI agents — from a dApp idea to deployed production app. Fetch this FIRST, it routes you through all other skills.
Its SKILL.md is about 4.2k 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 Backend & APIs, covering Smart contracts. It works with Ethereum. The repository describes itself as: The missing knowledge between AI agents and production Ethereum.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Smart contracts
Example prompts
- “/ship”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Plan the Architecture
- Build Contracts
- Test
- Build Frontend
- Ship to Production
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 06ea4ef. 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
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
ethskills.com
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
Ship loads about 4.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 35 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,109 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 2,109 words (~4,249 tokens).
“You jump to code without a plan. Before writing a single line of Solidity, you need to know: what goes onchain, what stays offchain, which chain, how many contracts, and who calls every function. Skip this and you'll rewrite everything.”
