At a glance

Instructions to fetch assigned Linear issues in the current cycle and potentially kick off a development session.

  • Works in 4 steps: Call get_user with query "me" to… → For each of my teams, call list_cycles… → For each active cycle found, call… → …
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Ktlo is an agent skill from coinbase/cds. Instructions to fetch assigned Linear issues in the current cycle and potentially kick off a development session.

Its SKILL.md is about 390 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with Linear. The repository describes itself as: Coinbase Design System.

Example prompts

  • “Use the ktlo skill to instruction to fetch assigned Linear issues in the current cycle and potentially kick off a development session”
  • “/ktlo”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Call get_user with query "me" to retrieve my user info and the list of teams I belong to.
  2. For each of my teams, call list_cycles with type: "current" and that team's teamId to get the active cycle ID(s). Skip teams with no…
  3. For each active cycle found, call list_issues with assignee: "me", the explicit cycle id (NOT the string "current"), and the corresponding…
  4. Deduplicate and combine all results.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 46d9e48. 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.

    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

Ktlo loads about 390 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 30 tokens; SKILL.md has 248 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~30
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~390

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 248 words (~390 tokens).

“Use the Linear MCP server to get my assigned issues in the active cycle. Follow these steps exactly:”
