At a glance

Gather context on a change or bug and plan the implementation.

  • Works in 3 steps: Gather Context (Ask User First) → Formulate a Proposal → Verification & Handoff
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Triage is an agent skill from GoogleCloudPlatform/magic-modules. Gather context on a change or bug and plan the implementation.

Its SKILL.md is about 200 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Add Google Cloud Platform support to Terraform.

Example prompts

  • “/triage”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Gather Context (Ask User First)
  2. Formulate a Proposal
  3. Verification & Handoff

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e5db069. 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.

    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

Triage loads about 199 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 17 tokens; SKILL.md has 111 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~17
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~199

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 111 words (~199 tokens).

“Use this skill when a user asks you to implement a feature or fix a bug. Gather context and plan before writing code.”

How do I install Triage in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add GoogleCloudPlatform/magic-modules --skill triage -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/operations/triage in GoogleCloudPlatform/magic-modules) into .claude/skills/triage in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Triage in Codex?

Can I use Triage in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add GoogleCloudPlatform/magic-modules --skill triage -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/triage, .gemini/skills/triage, .github/skills/triage and .opencode/skills/triage in your project.

What does Triage need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Triage is instructions for the agent only.

Does Triage access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Triage safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Triage use?

Triage has a licence file (the repository's licence) that doesn't match a standard licence. Read it on GitHub before reusing the skill.

How many tokens does Triage use?

About 199 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 796 characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Triage?
