When your agent uses it

  • Polishing prose
  • Introduction for a Games and Economic Behavior (GEB) manuscript so the model and result land for a general game-theory reader

Example prompts

  • “/geb-writing-style”

Workflow steps

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

  1. The question / phenomenon — the strategic problem, in plain terms.
  2. Why it was open — what prior solution concepts or results could not deliver.
  3. The result — state the main theorem/finding early, in words, then formally.
  4. The key idea — the one move (construction, mechanism, design) that makes it work.
  5. Scope & relation to the literature — generality and the delta against the nearest result.
  6. Roadmap — brief.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a4b2db. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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

Geb Writing Style loads about 972 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 74 tokens; SKILL.md has 463 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~74
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~972

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 463 words (~972 tokens).

“GEB is read across the game-theory community — economics, political science, biology, computer science, mathematics, and psychology — so the writing must be rigorous yet legible beyond one sub-field. Lead with the idea and the result; push heavy algebra into…”
