What it does

Faasjs Specs is an agent skill from faasjs/faasjs. Use when implementing, reviewing, or verifying normative FaasJS runtime behavior and compatibility for faas.yaml, staged config discovery and merge order, zero-mapping route resolution, HTTP request/response protocol envelopes, status behavior, plugin identity, concurrent mount and failed-mount retry behavior, lifecycle execution, config layering, and config-driven plugin loading.

Its SKILL.md is about 440 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including reference files (for example `references/specs/faas-yaml.md`, `references/specs/http-protocol.md` and `references/specs/plugin.md`).

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Serverless. The repository describes itself as: 🚀 FaasJS is an agent-friendly full-stack TypeScript framework for building predictable, type-safe applications with minimal dependencies. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Verifying normative FaasJS runtime behavior and compatibility for faas.yaml
  • Staged config discovery and merge order
  • Zero-mapping route resolution
  • HTTP request/response protocol envelopes

Example prompts

  • “/faasjs-specs”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Load the relevant spec before changing runtime behavior or public documentation.
  2. Treat MUST/SHOULD/MAY language as normative.
  3. Keep implementation, docs, and tests aligned with the spec.
  4. Preserve backwards compatibility unless the change is intentionally breaking and documented.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8136384. 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:

    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Faasjs Specs loads about 444 tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 99 tokens; SKILL.md has 164 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~99
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~444
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~5.2k

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.

FaasJS Specifications

Default Workflow

  1. Load the relevant spec before changing runtime behavior or public documentation.
  2. Treat MUST/SHOULD/MAY language as normative.
  3. Keep implementation, docs, and tests aligned with the spec.
  4. Preserve backwards compatibility unless the change is intentionally breaking and documented.

Load These References

  • faas.yaml placement, discovery, merge order, staging keys, server node, plugins node, and YAML subset: references/specs/faas-yaml.md.
  • Zero-mapping file naming and route lookup order: references/specs/routing-mapping.md.
  • HTTP request, response envelope, status, and transport behavior: references/specs/http-protocol.md.
  • Plugin identity, lifecycle execution, config layering, manual registration, and config-driven loading: references/specs/plugin.md.

Gotchas

  • Specs are normative and may be stricter than general guides.
  • Route behavior and config merge order are compatibility-sensitive.
  • HTTP response behavior must preserve envelope and low-level error distinctions.
  • Plugin config precedence must stay aligned with both manual and config-driven loading.

Validation

  • Run targeted runtime tests for the spec area changed.
  • Run npm run doc after spec source edits.
  • Run cd docs && npm run build when docs routing, spec pages, or links change.
