What it does

Golem Custom Snapshot Rust is an agent skill from golemcloud/golem. Enabling snapshot-based recovery and implementing custom snapshot save/load functions for Rust agents. Use when adding manual update support, custom state serialization, or — equally importantly — when a long-running agent's oplog is growing large and recovery/replay is becoming slow (heartbeats, polling loops, recurring tasks, frequent state changes). Snapshotting compacts the oplog and lets recovery start from the latest snapshot instead of replaying full history.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k 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 Agent Workflows, covering Autonomous loops and Scheduled and recurring tasks. It works with Rust. 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

  • Adding manual update support
  • Custom state serialization
  • — equally importantly — when a long-running agents oplog is growing large and recovery/replay is becoming slow (heartbeats
  • Recurring tasks

Example prompts

  • “/golem-custom-snapshot-rust”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Manual / snapshot-based component updates — required when updating agents between incompatible component versions.
  2. Fast recovery and oplog compaction — for long-running agents whose oplog grows over time (heartbeats, polling loops, recurring tasks…

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 rust and bash).

    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

Golem Custom Snapshot Rust loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 124 tokens; SKILL.md has 651 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~124
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.2k

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 651 words (~2,238 tokens).

“Golem agents can implement custom save_snapshot and load_snapshot functions to support manual (snapshot-based) updates and snapshot-based recovery.”
