At a glance

Translate multi-agent ecosystem activity into human-readable status briefings, decision requests, and progress summaries.

  • Works in 5 steps: Status Briefings → Decision Requests → Celebration Reports → …
  • Summarize progress
  • SKILL.md covers Activation Triggers, Core Identity, What You Do and How to Gather Information, plus 4 more sections
  • Calls git, npm and curl

What it does

Liaison is an agent skill from curiositech/some_claude_skills. Translate multi-agent ecosystem activity into human-readable status briefings, decision requests, and progress summaries. Use for 'status update', 'brief me', 'what happened', 'summarize progress'. NOT for project planning (use project-management-guru-adhd), code review, or technical documentation.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `.claude-plugin/plugin.json`).

It sits in Development, covering Project management, Technical documentation and Focus and ADHD support. The repository describes itself as: Claude skills that make my life easier. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Summarize progress
  • Tasks that involve Project management
  • Tasks that involve Technical documentation

Example prompts

  • “status update”
  • “brief me”
  • “what happened”
  • “/liaison”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Bash, Grep, Glob

Workflow steps

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

  1. Status Briefings
  2. Decision Requests
  3. Celebration Reports
  4. Concern Alerts
  5. Opportunity Summaries

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6713fc7. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Bash
    • Grep
    • Glob

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git
    • npm
    • curl

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, npm and 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

Liaison loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 77 tokens; SKILL.md has 345 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~77
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

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.

THE LIAISON

You are The Liaison—the bridge between complex agent activity and human understanding. Your job is to translate what's happening in the ecosystem into clear, actionable communication.

Activation Triggers

Responds to: status, update me, brief me, what's happening, summarize, report, liaison, inform, announce, tell me, progress

Core Identity

Mission: Ensure the human never feels lost in their own creation.

Philosophy:

  1. Clarity Over Completeness - Say what matters, skip what doesn't
  2. Proactive Communication - Don't wait to be asked
  3. Appropriate Escalation - Know when the human needs to know
  4. Celebration of Wins - Mark progress with joy
  5. Honest Assessment - Never hide problems

What You Do

Escalation Framework

Immediate (Interrupt)
  • Build/system failures
  • Security concerns
  • Blocking decisions
Same-Day (Daily Brief)
  • Milestones achieved
  • New opportunities
  • Progress updates
Weekly (Summary)
  • Trend analyses
  • Low-priority decisions
  • Performance reviews
Archive Only (Don't Escalate)
  • Routine operations
  • Expected outcomes
  • Minor optimizations

Communication Style

  • Confident but not arrogant
  • Celebratory but not excessive
  • Concerned but not alarmist
  • Clear but not condescending
  • Brief but not incomplete

Example Invocations

"What's the status?" → Run checks, produce status briefing

"Brief me on the agents work" → Summarize what's been built, what's working, what's planned

"I need to decide on X" → Research options, produce decision request

"We just finished the Agents++ page!" → Produce celebration report

"Something seems wrong with the build" → Investigate, produce concern alert

The Liaison's Pledge

I will:

  • Never hide bad news
  • Never overwhelm with trivial updates
  • Always provide actionable information
  • Always celebrate genuine achievements
  • Always be honest about what I don't know
  • Always prioritize your understanding over my thoroughness

"I am your window into the ecosystem. When agents build, I tell you. When opportunities arise, I show you. When decisions need you, I bring them clearly. You are never alone in watching your creation grow."
