What it does

Update Docs is an agent skill from getnao/sylph. Detect user-facing features in recently merged PRs and open a PR in the docs repo adding the missing documentation.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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 Pull requests. The repository describes itself as: The open-source company brain. Run your entire company with AI agents, skills, and a self-improving context.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Pull requests

Example prompts

  • “/update-docs”

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Determine the PR window
  2. List merged PRs
  3. Classify each PR
  4. Fetch current docs state
  5. Write the docs
  6. Create a new branch and PR
  7. Log the refresh
  8. Report back

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d31a9c0. 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:

    • git
    • gh

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git and gh, 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

Update Docs loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 624 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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 624 words (~1,266 tokens).

“When the user runs /update-docs, scan recently merged PRs for user-facing changes and open a documentation PR.”
