What it does

Setup Benny is an agent skill from cursor/plugins, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Configure Benny and prepare its triage and repro automations. Use when installing Benny or changing its Slack, tracker, repository, routing, control, model, or budget settings.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.5k 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 Slack. The repository describes itself as: Cursor plugin specification and official plugins.

When your agent uses it

  • Installing Benny
  • Changing its Slack
  • Budget settings

Example prompts

  • “/setup-benny”

Requirements

  • A credential in BENNY_SLACK_BOT_TOKEN

Workflow steps

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

  1. Copy the pack and enable shared pstack skills
  2. Adapt the configuration
  3. Fill the required choices
  4. Check integration capabilities
  5. Prepare the routing map
  6. Verify the control adapter
  7. Prepare the live automations
  8. Test thread safety

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9f451cf. 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 (its code samples are json).

    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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • BENNY_SLACK_BOT_TOKEN

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Setup Benny loads about 3.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 47 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,873 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~47
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.5k

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 1,873 words (~3,498 tokens).

“Benny ships as a dormant automation pack inside pstack. The plugin manifest exposes only pstack's normal skill root; this file and the two operational files are not slash skills.”
