What it does

Fnr is an agent skill from batmany13/about-me. Bruce's weekly Field Notes & Reflections (FNR), as a reflection tool. The machine writes a rich private memory aid of the week from the private repos' catchups, plus a scrubbed machine version of every block as fallback and eval baseline; then it asks the owner one question per turn, showing his notes but not the machine's prose, and his words go straight into the public file, verbatim. The sections, the owner's blocks, the pick lists, the one required block and the questions are declared in the private config…

Its SKILL.md is about 5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including scripts (for example `reference/questions.md`, `scripts/pull_week.py` and `scripts/state.py`).

The repository describes itself as: About my leadership philosophy, a little about me, and a peek into my AI work.

Example prompts

“write my weekly”
“field notes”
“weekly reflection”
“/fnr”

Requirements

Python 3

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

Preflight
Resolve the week
The catchups must exist, and the rollup runs
Mine the corrections
Write the memory aid, then the machine versions
Ask for his words, one question per turn
Publish check, then publish — and publish is a word he says
Open the coming week

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit bdd5b84. 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
Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- uv
- git
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:
- github.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

Fnr loads about 5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 185 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,737 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~185
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,737 words (~4,989 tokens).

“The Monday weekly. Bruce left Netflix in August 2026 and is on a "no-break career break". FNR is the public record of that — and the name is a pun on Netflix's Freedom & Responsibility, which is the joke and…”

Can I use Fnr in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add batmany13/about-me --skill fnr -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/fnr, .gemini/skills/fnr, .github/skills/fnr and .opencode/skills/fnr in your project.

What does Fnr need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Fnr needs Python for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (uv and git). Our summary lists: Python 3.

Does Fnr access the network?

SKILL.md names 1 domain. In commands or code: github.com; the agent is likely to contact it when it follows the instructions. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Fnr safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.

What licence does Fnr use?

No licence was found for Fnr or its repository. Without one, default copyright applies: ask the author before reusing or redistributing it.

How many tokens does Fnr use?

About 5k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 20k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Fnr?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Fnr: Weekly Review Planning (NousResearch/hermes-agent, 252k stars), Reflect (alirezarezvani/claude-skills, 28k stars), Weekly Project Digests (thedotmack/claude-mem, 99k stars) and Weekly Reflection (davekilleen/Dex, 494 stars).
