  • SKILL.md covers Trigger types, Commands and Config file example
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Slay Automations is an agent skill from debuglebowski/slayzone. Create and manage automations via the slay CLI

Its SKILL.md is about 630 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The licence is GPL-3.0.

Example prompts

  • “/slay-automations”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e912716. 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 no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

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

Context cost

Slay Automations loads about 627 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 16 tokens; SKILL.md has 253 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~16
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~627

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.

Automations are project-scoped, event-driven actions. They fire shell commands in response to task events or on a cron schedule.

Trigger types

TypeFires whenExtra flags
task_status_changeTask status changes--trigger-from-status, --trigger-to-status (both optional, filter transitions)
task_createdNew task created—
task_archivedTask archived—
task_tag_changedTags modified on a task—
cronOn schedule--cron <expression> (required)
manualOnly via slay automations run—

Commands

  • slay automations list --project <name|id> [--json] — list automations for a project.

    • Shows enabled state, trigger type, run count, and last run time
  • slay automations view <id> [--json] — view full automation details including trigger config, conditions, and actions.

  • slay automations create <name> --project <name|id> --trigger <type> [--action-command <cmd>] [--trigger-from-status <status>] [--trigger-to-status <status>] [--cron <expression>] [--description <text>] [--config <file>] — create an automation.

    • For simple automations, use --action-command to specify a shell command
    • For complex setups with multiple actions or conditions, use --config <file> with JSON { trigger_config, conditions?, actions } — overrides all other flags
  • slay automations update <id> [--name <n>] [--description <text>] [--enabled] [--disabled] [--trigger <type>] [--action-command <cmd>] [--trigger-from-status <s>] [--trigger-to-status <s>] [--cron <expr>] — update an automation.

    • At least one option required
  • slay automations delete <id> — permanently delete an automation.

  • slay automations toggle <id> — flip the enabled/disabled state.

    • You don't need to know the current state — it toggles automatically
  • slay automations run <id> — manually trigger an automation.

    • Requires the SlayZone app to be running (uses the app's HTTP API)
    • Reports status and duration
  • slay automations runs <id> [--limit <n>] [--json] — view execution history.

    • Shows status, duration, and any errors
    • Default limit: 10
