What it does

Env is an agent skill from egregore-labs/egregore. Install or rotate a secret privately into a .env file or a Railway service; never asks for the value in chat. Use for missing keys, replacement tokens, password changes, or environment setup.

Its SKILL.md is about 360 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Shared intelligence layer for organizations. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Replacement tokens
  • Password changes
  • Environment setup

Example prompts

  • “/env”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Read .claude/skills/env/SKILL.md for the workflow details.
  2. Run the referenced bin/ scripts directly from Codex.
  3. Treat graph and publish steps as best-effort unless that workflow explicitly
  4. For every external notification, follow
  5. Keep local-mode behavior filesystem-first and avoid graph or notification
  6. Never call the deprecated egregore-handoff CLI for Egregore project

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 05b8672. 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

Env loads about 359 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 155 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~49
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~359

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.

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.

Egregore env Adapter

This adapter runs the canonical Egregore workflow for env. Its one maintained body is .claude/skills/env/SKILL.md; read that file completely and follow it here.

Use the project shell and filesystem directly. Do not invoke Claude Code commands. Translate interactive choices to structured Codex question tooling when it is available; otherwise render compact numbered choices with an Other: option and wait for the user.

  1. Read .claude/skills/env/SKILL.md for the workflow details.
  2. Run the referenced bin/ scripts directly from Codex.
  3. Treat graph and publish steps as best-effort unless that workflow explicitly says they are required.
  4. For every external notification, follow .claude/context/notification-consent.md: plan without sending, then show a separate exact Send / Edit / Cancel checkpoint. Never infer notification consent from the workflow request or a batch approval.
  5. Keep local-mode behavior filesystem-first and avoid graph or notification calls when egregore.json declares "mode": "local".
  6. Never call the deprecated egregore-handoff CLI for Egregore project handoffs.

How do I install Env in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add egregore-labs/egregore --skill env -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.codex/skills/env in egregore-labs/egregore) into .claude/skills/env in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Env in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add egregore-labs/egregore --skill env -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/env, .gemini/skills/env, .github/skills/env and .opencode/skills/env in your project.

What does Env need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Env is instructions for the agent only.

Does Env 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 Env safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (mentions a .env file), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Env use?

Env is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Env use?

About 359 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 1.4k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
