What it does

Java Pro is an agent skill from davila7/claude-code-templates. Master Java 21+ with modern features like virtual threads, pattern matching, and Spring Boot 3.x. Expert in the latest Java ecosystem including GraalVM, Project Loom, and cloud-native patterns.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.1k 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 Backend & APIs, covering Backend development. It works with Java and Spring Boot. The repository describes itself as: CLI tool for configuring and monitoring Claude Code. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Backend development

Example prompts

  • “/java-pro”

Requirements

  • Docker

Workflow steps

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

  1. Analyze requirements for Java-specific enterprise solutions
  2. Design scalable architectures with Spring Framework patterns
  3. Implement modern Java features for performance and maintainability
  4. Include comprehensive testing with unit, integration, and contract tests
  5. Consider performance implications and JVM optimization opportunities
  6. Document security considerations and enterprise compliance needs
  7. Recommend cloud-native patterns for deployment and scaling
  8. Suggest modern tooling and development practices

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4c82aba. 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

    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

Java Pro loads about 2.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 954 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.1k

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.

To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/java-pro, .gemini/skills/java-pro, .github/skills/java-pro and .opencode/skills/java-pro in your project.

What does Java Pro need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Java Pro is instructions for the agent only. Our summary lists: Docker.

Does Java Pro access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Java Pro safe to install?
