  • Runs TypeScript scripts from its folder; calls node
  • The user states a preference

What it does

Eser Rules Manager is an agent skill from eser/stack. Picks the skills a task needs and maintains the rules in .agents/skills. Use when starting any task to choose skills, when the user states a preference or a rule to remember, or when creating, changing, splitting, validating or evaluating a skill.

Its SKILL.md is about 750 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `evals/triggers.json`, `references/skill-discovery.md` and `references/skill-evaluation.md`).

It works with JavaScript. The repository describes itself as: The Portability Solution for Your Code! 🚀 Powered By Deno and JavaScript.

When your agent uses it

  • Starting any task to choose skills
  • The user states a preference
  • A rule to remember
  • Evaluating a skill

Example prompts

  • “Use the eser-rules-manager skill to pick the skills a task needs and maintains the rules in .agents/skills”
  • “/eser-rules-manager”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 64939e6. 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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (TypeScript), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • node

    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

Eser Rules Manager loads about 749 tokens when it runs, and up to ~6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 67 tokens; SKILL.md has 256 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~67
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~749
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~6k

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); the scripts in this folder 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 256 words (~749 tokens).

“Chooses which skills apply to a task, and says how rules are added and kept in order.”
