What it does

Saved Objects Style Review is an agent skill from elastic/kibana, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Kibana Saved Objects registration and style review guidance. Use when creating, changing, or reviewing Saved Object changes involving savedObjects.registerType, mappings, modelVersions, root mappings, or Saved Objects type definitions.

Its SKILL.md is about 860 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 Elasticsearch. The repository describes itself as: Your window into all of your data.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing Saved Object changes involving savedObjects.registerType
  • Saved Objects type definitions

Example prompts

  • “/saved-objects-style-review”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ee7c86b. 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

Saved Objects Style Review loads about 861 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 414 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~66
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~861

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.
