What it does

Skills Governance is an agent skill from cnfjlhj/ai-collab-playbook. Use when auditing a large local skill collection, identifying duplicate or imported skills, comparing skill roots, or deciding what to keep, disable, or archive across Codex and adjacent agent skill directories.

Its SKILL.md is about 560 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `scan.js`).

The repository describes itself as: Practical AI collaboration playbook for research, writing, reading, and coding: article, prompts, agent rules, and reusable skills.

When your agent uses it

  • Auditing a large local skill collection
  • Identifying duplicate
  • Imported skills
  • Comparing skill roots

Example prompts

  • “/skills-governance”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  1. Run the scanner in codex mode first.
  2. If the results still do not explain the user's confusion, rerun in all mode.
  3. Explain the problem from roots, duplicate groups, and suspicious flags before recommending changes.
  4. Prefer Codex [[skills.config]] disable suggestions over editing individual SKILL.md files unless the user explicitly asks for direct file…
  5. Separate recommendations into three buckets: keep, disable for now, and archive or external mirror.
  6. If the user asks to execute changes, list exact target paths and wait for confirmation first.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b3ee0d6. 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

    Ships script files (JavaScript), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • node

    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

Skills Governance loads about 563 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 279 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~563

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 279 words (~563 tokens).

“Use the bundled scanner as the source of truth for local skill inventory. Base recommendations on real directories and SKILL.md frontmatter instead of stale catalogs or memory.”
