What it does

Honk Config Change is an agent skill from daeuniverse/honk. Use for configuration contracts, parsers, reference docs and their core or outbound consumers.

Its SKILL.md is about 340 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Inspired by dae & sing-box, it's an ebpf based proxy with clash-api. The licence is GPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Configuration contracts
  • Reference docs and their core
  • Outbound consumers

Example prompts

  • “/honk-config-change”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Decide which contract changes. For lexical semantics that differ from dae, add a row to doc/en/reference/dialect.md and…
  2. Run just test-config or cargo test -p honk-config. Both include unit and integration tests.
  3. If the change reaches honk-core or honk-outbound consumers, run the affected crate tests: cargo test -p honk-outbound, or cargo test -p…
  4. Update AGENTS.md or the relevant rules file if a convention changed.
  5. PR text: AGENTS.md, "Code style guidelines" (PR bodies).

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a8a74a4. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • cargo
    • just

    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

Honk Config Change loads about 344 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 28 tokens; SKILL.md has 159 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~28
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~344

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.

description
Use for configuration contracts, parsers, reference docs and their core or outbound consumers.

Read first: AGENTS.md, .agents/rules/configuration.md and .agents/rules/test-locations.md.

Steps

  1. Decide which contract changes. For lexical semantics that differ from dae, add a row to doc/en/reference/dialect.md and doc/zh/reference/dialect.md. For a setting, update its reference page under doc/en/reference/ and doc/zh/reference/. A refactor needs no doc change.
  2. Run just test-config or cargo test -p honk-config. Both include unit and integration tests.
  3. If the change reaches honk-core or honk-outbound consumers, run the affected crate tests: cargo test -p honk-outbound, or cargo test -p honk-core. Focused gates and test policy: AGENTS.md, "Current validation guidance" and "Testing instructions".
  4. Update AGENTS.md or the relevant rules file if a convention changed.
  5. PR text: AGENTS.md, "Code style guidelines" (PR bodies).

Checklist

  • Contract classified; the corresponding documentation step is complete or inapplicable.
  • honk-config integration tests are included in the crate run.
  • Affected core or outbound consumers have their crate checks.
  • Changed conventions are recorded in the root or rules file.
  • PR text follows "Code style guidelines".
