Answer questions about the user's own work in Pane, read-only.

  • Calls gh, sqlite3 and git

What it does

Pane Work is an agent skill from greenfield-inc/Pane. Answer questions about the user's own work in Pane, read-only. Recap what they worked on, finished, or shipped over a time window, or rank what to do next across panes, pull requests, issues, checks, and reviews. Use for "what have I been working on?", "what did I finish yesterday?", "what should I work on next?", "which PRs are closest to shipping?", or "what should I ignore for now?".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k 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 Pull requests. The repository describes itself as: Terminal-first, open-source AI agent manager for any CLI agent (agent agnostic), any OS (mac, windows, linux). The Open-Source Agentic Development Environment for running…

When your agent uses it

  • What have I been working on?
  • What did I finish yesterday?
  • What should I work on next?
  • Which PRs are closest to shipping?

Example prompts

  • “what have I been working on?”
  • “what did I finish yesterday?”
  • “what should I work on next?”
  • “/pane-work”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Pane state
  2. Branches and PRs
  3. Agent logs

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c038a7b. 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:

    • gh
    • sqlite3
    • git
    • rg

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use gh and git, 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

Pane Work loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 767 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~100
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

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 767 words (~1,768 tokens).
