What it does

Core PR Helper is an agent skill from calimero-network/core. Suggests one appropriate branch name and a PR description in the project template (title, Description, Test plan, Documentation update) for Calimero core. Use when creating a PR for core, or when the user asks for a branch name and PR description.

Its SKILL.md is about 610 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 Pull requests, Project scaffolding and Test generation. The repository describes itself as: Calimero - Peer-to-peer application platform with local-first governance, CRDT state sync, and WASM execution.

When your agent uses it

  • Creating a PR for core
  • The user asks for a branch name and PR description

Example prompts

  • “Use the core-pr-helper skill to suggest one appropriate branch name and a PR description in the project template (title, Description, Test plan…”
  • “/core-pr-helper”

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Infer the change from the conversation (recent edits, stated scope, or ask briefly if unclear).
  2. Output one branch name, then the PR body in the exact format below.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 64f9209. 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

Core PR Helper loads about 614 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 147 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~66
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~614

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 147 words (~614 tokens).
