At a glance

A skill your agent uses when adding or following the red/yellow/green final status block convention for agent responses, especially by installing managed AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md instructions.

  • Following the red/yellow/green final status block convention for agent responses
  • SKILL.md covers Status Block, Installer Behavior and Examples
  • Needs PROVIDER_WEBHOOK_SECRET
  • Especially by installing managed AGENTS.md

What it does

Quick Recap is an agent skill from BuilderIO/skills. Use when adding or following the red/yellow/green final status block convention for agent responses, especially by installing managed AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md instructions.

Its SKILL.md is about 350 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `README.md`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Agent instruction files. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Following the red/yellow/green final status block convention for agent responses
  • Especially by installing managed AGENTS.md
  • CLAUDE.md instructions

Example prompts

  • “/quick-recap”

Requirements

  • A credential in PROVIDER_WEBHOOK_SECRET

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit da158ca. 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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • PROVIDER_WEBHOOK_SECRET

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Quick Recap loads about 352 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 143 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~352

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.

description
Use when adding or following the red/yellow/green final status block convention for agent responses, especially by installing managed AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md instructions.

Quick Recap

Make completion state obvious at the end of every response.

Status Block

Every response that completes a unit of work must end with:

md
🟢 Actual concise status sentence

Rules:

  • Keep the status line under 100 characters.
  • Use 🟢 when the requested work is finished.
  • Use 🟡 when non-routine follow-up remains; name the pending item.
  • Use 🔴 only when blocked on user input.
  • Put the status line at the very end of the response.
  • Do not add ---, spacer lines, or any content after the status line.

Installer Behavior

This convention is only automatic when it is present in project or user instructions. When installing this skill, prefer adding the managed AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md block unless the user opts out.

If you are following the convention manually, choose the status from the user's perspective: finished, pending a specific non-routine step, or blocked.

Examples

Finished work:

md
🟢 Updated quick recap docs with output examples

Non-routine follow-up remains:

md
🟡 Code updated, set PROVIDER_WEBHOOK_SECRET before testing webhooks

Blocked on user input:

md
🔴 Need the production API key to continue
