At a glance

Adding Effect-based saga transactions with compensating rollback to a Golem agent.

  • An @golemcloud/effect-golem project needs fallible multi-step operations
  • SKILL.md covers Choose the Compensation API, Fallible Transactions, External HTTP Ledger Pattern and Infallible Transactions, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Reverse-order compensation

What it does

Golem Add Transactions Effect is an agent skill from golemcloud/golem. Adding Effect-based saga transactions with compensating rollback to a Golem agent. Use when an @golemcloud/effect-golem project needs fallible multi-step operations, reverse-order compensation, rollback reporting, or durable saga recovery.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.5k 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 DevOps & Cloud. 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

  • An @golemcloud/effect-golem project needs fallible multi-step operations
  • Reverse-order compensation
  • Rollback reporting
  • Durable saga recovery

Example prompts

  • “/golem-add-transactions-effect”

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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are typescript and bash).

    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 Transactions Effect loads about 2.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 67 tokens; SKILL.md has 717 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~67
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.5k

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 717 words (~2,506 tokens).

“Use the Saga namespace from @golemcloud/effect-golem. A saga is an ordinary Effect program: each successful step registers an Effect that can compensate it, and the transaction wrapper runs registered compensations in reverse order when the body fails.”
