What it does

Golem Add npm Package Effect is an agent skill from golemcloud/golem. Adds npm package dependencies to Effect-based Golem projects. Use when the user asks to add a library, package, or dependency to an @golemcloud/effect-golem application.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with npm and WebAssembly. The repository describes itself as: Golem Cloud is the agent-native platform for building AI agents and distributed applications that never lose state, never duplicate work, and never require you to build…

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to add a library
  • Dependency to an @golemcloud/effect-golem application

Example prompts

  • “/golem-add-npm-package-effect”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  1. From the application root containing package.json, install the package
  2. Import the package from component source with its documented ESM or runtime-compatible entry
  3. Preserve the generated versions of effect and @golemcloud/effect-golem. They are
  4. Build through Golem

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c6a3029. 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:

    • npm

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    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

Golem Add npm Package Effect loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 50 tokens; SKILL.md has 653 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~50
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 653 words (~1,371 tokens).

“Effect Golem applications use normal npm dependencies, but application code is bundled into a single ESM module and runs in a QuickJS-based WebAssembly component rather than Node.js. A runtime dependency must therefore be compatible with both the Rollup build and…”
