What it does

Pre PR Checklist is an agent skill from golemcloud/golem. Final checks before submitting a pull request. Use when preparing to create a PR, to ensure formatting, linting, and the correct tests have been run.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k 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 Development, covering Linting and formatting and Pull requests. 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

  • Preparing to create a PR
  • Ensure formatting
  • The correct tests have been run

Example prompts

  • “/pre-pr-checklist”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Classify the Change
  2. Format and Lint the Affected Scope
  3. Build the Affected Scope
  4. Run the Right Tests
  5. Regenerate Required Artifacts
  6. Review the Final Diff

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:

    • cargo
    • git
    • npx

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git and npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Pre PR Checklist loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 854 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k

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 854 words (~1,702 tokens).

“Validate the smallest dependency and behavior scope that fully covers the change. Local checks should find likely failures quickly; repository-wide CI remains the broad safety net.”
