What it does

Set Up Openwork Team is an agent skill from different-ai/openwork. Set up OpenWork for a team - sign up for OpenWork Cloud, create the organization, invite teammates, share models through the AI Gateway, and share a skill. Use when a team or company wants OpenWork with shared skills, models, or policies.

Its SKILL.md is about 760 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 Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: The open-source alternative to Claude Cowork (powered by opencode).

When your agent uses it

  • Company wants OpenWork with shared skills

Example prompts

  • “/set-up-openwork-team”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  2. Invite teammates: Members > Add member, enter an email, pick a role (usually Member), Send invite. Group people under Teams > Create Team.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4ccc9e9. 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:

    • curl
    • sh

    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:

    • openworklabs.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

Set Up Openwork Team loads about 758 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 339 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~758

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 339 words (~758 tokens).

“OpenWork Cloud is the team control plane: members, shared models (AI Gateway), shared skills and plugins, and the MCP Gateway. The first 5 seats are free; then $10 per seat per month. Pricing: https://openworklabs.com/pricing”
