What it does
Skill Authoring Workflow is an agent skill from BingHanOfUESTC/open_agent_team. Use this skill when writing or updating SKILL.md for an agent skill, including model-facing frontmatter description, concise body instructions, workflow steps, resource navigation, gotchas, and self-checks.
Its SKILL.md is about 300 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 Agent Workflows, covering Skill authoring and Verification before completion. The repository describes itself as: Build persistent multi-agent teams that collaborate like real organizations to deliver complex tasks. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Updating SKILL.md for an agent skill
- Including model-facing frontmatter description
- Concise body instructions
- Resource navigation
Example prompts
- “/skill-authoring-workflow”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7e28736. 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 markdown).
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
Skill Authoring Workflow loads about 301 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 53 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.

The description is for model routing. Include:

boundaries that avoid over-triggeringAvoid human marketing language.
Body Rules
Keep only essential procedural knowledge.
Assume the model already knows common reasoning and writing.
Use concise examples.
Move long details to references.
Move repeated code to scripts.
Move templates/assets to assets.Gotchas
- Gotchas should be concrete failure modes, not vague warnings.
- Prefer “When X happens, do Y” over broad principles.
- If the skill depends on setup, say exactly what to ask or inspect.
