What it does

Workflow Helper is an agent skill from chengrouter/chengos. Use this skill when the user has questions about building, debugging, or understanding ChengOS workflows — including node selection, port wiring, field configuration, error troubleshooting, and workflow pattern recommendations.

Its SKILL.md is about 2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including reference files (for example `references/edge-types.md`, `references/field-guide.md` and `references/index.md`).

It sits in Development. The repository describes itself as: ChengOS is a visual AI data processing and agent workflow system. This directory contains deployment scripts, infrastructure configs, and runtime resources for production and…

When your agent uses it

  • The user has questions about building
  • Understanding ChengOS workflows — including node selection
  • Field configuration
  • Error troubleshooting

Example prompts

  • “/workflow-helper”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Node Selection
  2. Wiring / Connection Problems
  3. Field Configuration
  4. Error Troubleshooting
  5. Workflow Template Lookup
  6. Workflow Pattern Design

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3311be1. 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:

    • curl
    • jq

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use curl, 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

Workflow Helper loads about 2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~7.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 61 tokens; SKILL.md has 789 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~61
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~7.3k

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 789 words (~2,010 tokens).

“Use this skill when the user asks about how to build, wire, configure, or troubleshoot ChengOS workflows.”
