What it does

HTTP Request is an agent skill from EXboys/skilllite. 发起 HTTP 网络请求，支持 GET、POST、PUT、DELETE、PATCH 方法。当用户需要调用 API、获取网页内容、发送数据到服务器时使用。

Its SKILL.md is about 760 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/main.py`). Compatibility notes: Python 3.x，推荐 requests + html2text（无 html2text 时 HTML 退化为纯文本），需网络权限

It works with Wikipedia. The repository describes itself as: A lightweight secure Self-evolution engine built in Rust, featuring a built-in native system-level sandbox, zero dependencies, and fully local execution. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/http-request”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Python 3.x，推荐 requests + html2text（无 html2text 时 HTML 退化为纯文本），需网络权限

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 281b368. 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/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    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:

    • httpbin.org
    • en.wikipedia.org
    • wttr.in
    • api.open-meteo.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.

  • Compatibility

    Python 3.x，推荐 requests + html2text（无 html2text 时 HTML 退化为纯文本），需网络权限

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

HTTP Request loads about 757 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 84 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~22
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~757

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.

HTTP Request Skill

一个通用的 HTTP 网络请求技能，支持常见的 RESTful API 调用。

功能特性

  • 支持 GET、POST、PUT、DELETE、PATCH 方法
  • 支持自定义请求头
  • 支持 JSON 请求体
  • 支持 URL 查询参数
  • 支持超时设置
  • 旧版 SSL 兼容：支持连接使用旧版 TLS 的服务器（如部分政府/教育网站）
  • 浏览器级 User-Agent：减少 503/反爬拦截
  • Wikipedia/Wikimedia 合规：访问 wikipedia.org / wikimedia.org / wikidata.org 时自动使用合规 User-Agent（否则易 403），并加 1.5 秒间隔降低限流
  • 自动重试：对 502/503/504 自动重试 2 次
  • HTML→Markdown：网页响应自动转为 Markdown（默认），降低 token 消耗

使用示例

GET 请求
json
{
  "url": "https://httpbin.org/get",
  "method": "GET",
  "params": {"name": "test"}
}
POST 请求
json
{
  "url": "https://httpbin.org/post",
  "method": "POST",
  "headers": {"Content-Type": "application/json"},
  "body": {"message": "hello world"}
}
天气查询（推荐 Open-Meteo，免费无 key）
json
{
  "url": "https://api.open-meteo.com/v1/forecast",
  "method": "GET",
  "params": {
    "latitude": 18.7883,
    "longitude": 98.9853,
    "daily": "temperature_2m_max,temperature_2m_min,weathercode",
    "timezone": "Asia/Bangkok",
    "forecast_days": 2
  }
}

清迈坐标 18.7883,98.9853。返回 JSON 含 daily.time、temperature_2m_max/min、weathercode。

wttr.in 亦可用：https://wttr.in/Chiang_Mai?format=j1，skill 会自动用 curl UA 以获取 JSON。

Wikipedia 获取城市/地点摘要（推荐，限流较宽松）
json
{
  "url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/page/summary/Chiang_Mai",
  "method": "GET"
}

或 .../page/summary/Bangkok。返回 JSON 含 extract、description、title 等。

Wikipedia 搜索 API（params 可用 q，skill 会自动转为 action=query&list=search）
json
{
  "url": "https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php",
  "method": "GET",
  "params": {"q": "Chiang Mai tourism"}
}

With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add EXboys/skilllite --skill http-request -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/http-request, .gemini/skills/http-request, .github/skills/http-request and .opencode/skills/http-request in your project.

What does HTTP Request need to run?

Is HTTP Request safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
