  • Tasks that involve Debugging

What it does

Debug Compiler is an agent skill from fiigii/ai-comp. Compiler development and debugging instructions

Its SKILL.md is about 710 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Debugging. The repository describes itself as: Build a compiler to solve Anthropic's interview challenge.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Debugging

Example prompts

  • “/debug-compiler”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cdc89e7. 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:

    • python3

    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

Debug Compiler loads about 707 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 16 tokens; SKILL.md has 223 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~16
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~707

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 223 words (~707 tokens).

“When developing the compiler, if you run into an unexplained bug, you often need to start from the generated VLIW assembly and trace the cause upward, pass by pass. Each time, you can diff the previous pass's printed outputs (IR…”
