What it does

Book Chapter Generator is an agent skill from dmccreary/ibook-skills. Designs the chapter structure for an intelligent textbook by analyzing the learning graph and concept dependencies. Use after the learning graph is complete and before generating chapter content.

Its SKILL.md is about 6.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

Example prompts

  • “Use the book-chapter-generator skill to design the chapter structure for an intelligent textbook by analyzing the learning graph and concept…”
  • “/book-chapter-generator”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Analyze Input Resources
  2. Design Chapter Structure
  3. Present Design to User for Approval
  4. Generate Chapter Directory Structure and Files

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6789126. 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:

    • 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

Book Chapter Generator loads about 6.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,460 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~55
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~6.3k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,460 words (~6,328 tokens).
