What it does

Claude Skill is an agent skill from feiskyer/codex-settings. Delegate a task to the Claude Code CLI, typically a headless claude -p run. Use when the user wants the work executed through Claude Code rather than answered inline.

Its SKILL.md is about 740 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/examples.md` and `references/flags-and-permissions.md`).

The repository describes itself as: Curated skills, profiles, and config templates that supercharge Codex CLI — multi-model, deep research, image gen & browser automation. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants the work executed through Claude Code rather than answered inline

Example prompts

  • “/claude-skill”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d7f6570. 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:

    • claude

    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

Claude Skill loads about 742 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 365 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~742
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.6k

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Delegate a task to the Claude Code CLI, typically a headless `claude -p` run. Use when the user wants the work executed through Claude Code rather than answered inline.

Claude Code Headless Mode

Build and run claude commands for work that should be executed through Claude Code itself.

ReferenceRead it when
references/flags-and-permissions.mdThe command needs more than -p — permission modes, tool scoping, output formats, flag inventory, installation
references/examples.mdYou want a worked command for a specific shape of task (read-only analysis, safe edit run, JSON report, resume, MCP, sandboxed unattended run)

Requires the claude CLI installed and authenticated on the target machine.

Core rules

  • claude --help on the target machine is the compatibility floor. CLI flags and permission-rule syntax move faster than docs and copied examples, and they differ between builds. Verify any uncommon flag there before emitting it.
  • Do not add --model unless the user asked for an override or the workflow must pin a model for reproducibility. The user's configured model is the right default.
  • Prefer --append-system-prompt over --system-prompt unless replacing Claude Code's default behavior is the point.
  • Choose the least-permissive mode that still fits the task. acceptEdits is the usual starting point for coding automation. For a truly unattended run, reach for explicit permission rules or dontAsk first; bypassPermissions is only for an already-isolated environment.

Check what the task needs

Before execution, confirm the CLI is available and authenticated. Consult claude --help for flags needed by this command; use version or diagnostic commands when compatibility or installation is in doubt. A request for a command example does not authorize running that task.

Show full SKILL.md (128 more words)Show less

Basic shape

bash
claude -p "summarize the repository architecture"
claude -p "review the auth layer for risks" --output-format json

Everything else is a matter of scoping tools and permissions around that — see the references.

When to pause

Pause for missing credentials, unavailable required capabilities, or a permission expansion. If an equivalent supported command stays within the request, use it without adding an approval step.

What to return

For execution requests, run the authorized command and inspect its result and relevant artifacts; do not stop at printing a command or treat exit code zero as proof that the requested work is complete. Continue bounded follow-up within the existing scope when work remains. For command-only requests, return the command without executing it.

Report the command, outcome, relevant checks, and any permission or validation gaps. Include a resume command only when the workflow is meant to continue later.
