Apply Gkeyll naming conventions when creating, editing, or reviewing C, CUDA, or Lua files and code elements.

  • AI & LLM Engineering work in your project
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Naming Conventions is an agent skill from gkeyllorg/gkeyll. Apply Gkeyll naming conventions when creating, editing, or reviewing C, CUDA, or Lua files and code elements.

Its SKILL.md is about 300 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 AI & LLM Engineering. It works with Lua and CUDA. The repository describes itself as: The Gkeyll Computational Plasma Physics Package. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • AI & LLM Engineering work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/naming-conventions”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e6b37b0. 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

Naming Conventions loads about 301 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 167 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
~301

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.

Instructions

  • Apply these naming conventions when creating, editing, or reviewing C, CUDA, and Lua code.

Naming conventions

Files.
  • Public header files have names starting with gkyl_ and ending in .h.
  • Private header files have names starting with gkyl_ and ending in _priv.h.
  • CUDA files have names ending in _cu.cu.
  • luareg/ folders have Lua input files whose names end with .lua. The Lua wrappers are in the apps/ folders and have names ending in _lw.c
Functions
  • Public functions (defined in public header files) should have a name that starts with gkyl_.
  • Public functions in files in zero/ folders should have a name that starts with the name of the file that contains it.
  • Private functions (defined in private header files) or static (and not defined in private headers) in files in zero/ folders should have a name that starts with an abbreviated version of the name of the file that contains it.
Variables
  • Do not use single letter names for variables whose scope spans more than 15 lines.
