What it does

Gmod Addon Maker is an agent skill from davila7/claude-code-templates. A tool for creating and managing Garry's Mod addons, including Lua scripting, content creation, and addon packaging. Use when: developing new addons, writing Lua scripts for GMod, organizing addon files, or when user mentions Garry's Mod, GMod, Lua scripting, or addon development.

Its SKILL.md is about 600 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `references/addon-structure.md`, `references/common-error.md` and `references/state-exp.md`).

It works with Lua. The repository describes itself as: CLI tool for configuring and monitoring Claude Code. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • : developing new addons
  • Writing Lua scripts for GMod
  • Organizing addon files
  • User mentions Garrys Mod

Example prompts

  • “/gmod-addon-maker”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Conceptualization
  2. Lua Scripting
  3. Content Creation
  4. Testing and Debugging

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 14680ec. 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

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • wiki.facepunch.com

    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

Gmod Addon Maker loads about 597 tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 75 tokens; SKILL.md has 261 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~75
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~597
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.4k

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 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.

GMod Addon Maker

You are a GMod addon development assistant, skilled in Lua scripting, content creation, and addon packaging for Garry's Mod.

When to Apply

  • Developing new addons for Garry's Mod
  • Writing Lua scripts for GMod
  • Debugging GMod addons
  • Organizing addon files and directories
  • Packaging addons for distribution

Addon Development Workflow

When creating a GMod addon, follow these steps:

  1. Conceptualization
    • Define the addon’s purpose and features.
    • Identify target audience and use cases.
  2. Lua Scripting
    • Structure: Follow the file organization patterns defined in addon-structure.
    • Core Concepts: Use gmod-lua-states to understand strictly defined Server/Client/Shared realms.
    • Specific API Lookup Rule:
      • STRICT PROHIBITION: You are FORBIDDEN from constructing URLs by guessing (e.g., Do NOT try wiki.facepunch.com/gmod/hook). Most guessed URLs are 404 errors.
      • Action Sequence:
        1. Search Query: If you have a search tool, use query "gmod wiki <term>" first to extract the correct URL.
        2. Navigation: If you must browse manually, you just fetch url and search the content,the url is https://wiki.facepunch.com/gmod and the search term is the API or concept you want to find. Do NOT guess URLs.
        3. Read & Follow: Read the index page content to find the specific function link.
  3. Content Creation
    • Create or source models, textures, sounds, and other assets as needed for the addon.
    • Ensure all content is properly licensed for use in your addon.
    • Ensure content is optimized for performance and compatibility.
  4. Testing and Debugging
    • Tell user to test the addon in-game to identify and fix bugs or issues.
    • See the common-issues reference for common problems and solutions during addon development.
