What it does

Publish Beta Types is an agent skill from blockscout/frontend. Publish a beta version of a @blockscout/-types npm package and pin it here. Use when a needed response type isn't in any published package version yet.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with npm. The repository describes itself as: Front-end application for Blockscout chain explorer.

When your agent uses it

  • A needed response type isnt in any published package version yet

Example prompts

  • “/publish-beta-types”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Interview + prerequisites
  2. Find the workflow
  3. Trigger the publish
  4. Watch the run, copy the exact version
  5. Pin and verify

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3e6a421. 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:

    • gh
    • pnpm

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use gh and pnpm, 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

Publish Beta Types loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 458 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~43
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 458 words (~1,103 tokens).

“The @blockscout/*-types packages are generated from each API's OpenAPI spec or Protobuf in the API's own source repo and published to npm; this repo only pins versions in package.json. Stable versions are published automatically on API releases — so when…”
