How the agent knows what the user is looking at. An agent skill from BuilderIO/agent-native.
- Works in 4 steps: Navigation State (navigation key) → Current URL (url key) → The view-screen Action → …

What it does
Context Awareness is an agent skill from BuilderIO/agent-native. How the agent knows what the user is looking at. Use when exposing UI state to the agent, implementing view-screen or navigate actions, wiring navigation state, or debugging agent context issues.
Its SKILL.md is about 3.1k 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 Development, covering Codebase knowledge for agents. The repository describes itself as: A framework for building agentic apps.
When your agent uses it
- Exposing UI state to the agent
- Implementing view-screen
- Navigate actions
- Wiring navigation state
Example prompts
- “/context-awareness”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Navigation State (navigation key)
- Current URL (url key)
- The view-screen Action
- The navigate Action
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e16da0c. 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 typescript and json).
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
Context Awareness loads about 3.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,345 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 1,345 words (~3,137 tokens).
“Apps can sync semantic navigation state when the route changes by using the shared route-state hook. When screen context is available, Core includes a snapshot in each agent turn, so the agent can get basic route context without first calling…”
