At a glance

Marking Scala agent methods as read-only for a side-effect-free guarantee and result caching.

  • The user wants a cacheable query method
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, Usage, Cache Policy and Per-Principal Caching…, plus 3 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • A method that must not write to the oplog

What it does

Golem Mark Read Only Scala is an agent skill from golemcloud/golem. Marking Scala agent methods as read-only for a side-effect-free guarantee and result caching. Use when the user wants a cacheable query method, a method that must not write to the oplog, or HTTP GET endpoints that emit cache headers.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k 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 Backend & APIs, covering Caching. 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 wants a cacheable query method
  • A method that must not write to the oplog
  • HTTP GET endpoints that emit cache headers

Example prompts

  • “/golem-mark-read-only-scala”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit efc90f0. 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 scala).

    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 Mark Read Only Scala loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 725 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

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 725 words (~1,565 tokens).

“A read-only agent method is one you promise is a pure read of the agent's already-loaded state: it must not mutate anything and its result must depend only on its inputs and the current state. Golem enforces the most important…”
