What it does

Sync Workspace is an agent skill from CurryTang/Amadeus. Sync local and remote project files bidirectionally. Handles code, resources, papers, and experiment outputs. Use when user says "sync", "push files", "pull files", "upload code", "download results".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Your personal AI research assistant that automatically reads, summarizes, organizes, and acts on academic papers.

When your agent uses it

  • Download results

Example prompts

  • “push files”
  • “pull files”
  • “upload code”
  • “/sync-workspace”

Requirements

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

Workflow steps

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

  1. Determine sync parameters
  2. Verify connectivity
  3. Detect workspace paths
  4. Execute sync
  5. Report results

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 72f0e2f. 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:

    • Bash(*)
    • Read
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Write
    • Agent

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git
    • rsync
    • ssh

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

  • Network

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

Sync Workspace loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 504 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~54
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash(*), Read, Glob, Grep, Write, Agent

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 504 words (~1,201 tokens).
