What it does
Visual Answer is an agent skill from BuilderIO/agent-native. Answer code/product questions as visual Plan artifacts using repo, bridge, or GitHub context; use for API specs, UI look, schema models, and architecture.
Its SKILL.md is about 950 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 Backend & APIs, covering OpenAPI specifications. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: A framework for building agentic apps.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve OpenAPI specifications
Example prompts
- “/visual-answer”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Inspect the real source first. Use the host agent's repo tools, the Plan
- Call get-plan-blocks before authoring. Use the live registry, not memory.
- Pick the evidence blocks
- Publish with the Plan visual-answer action. Include the user's question,
- In Agent-Native chat the published answer renders inline automatically — its
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 json and bash).
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
Visual Answer loads about 950 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 431 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 431 words (~950 tokens).
“/visual-answer turns a specific code or product question into a published Agent-Native Plan artifact. It is for questions that need a visual, inspectable answer rather than a chat paragraph: API contracts, schema/data models, UI states, component behavior, architecture flows, and…”
