Example prompts

  • “/expansion-playbook”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Trigger Mapping – link product usage, milestone completion, or executive asks to specific plays.
  2. Value Narrative – outline business impact, ROI proof, and reference customers per play.
  3. Commercial Guardrails – specify packaging, pricing, approvals, and compensation cues.
  4. Enablement Kit – include decks, ROI calculators, success stories, and objection handling.
  5. Measurement – track attach rate, win rate, and cycle time for each play.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 78e0419. 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

Expansion Playbook loads about 318 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 25 tokens; SKILL.md has 146 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~25
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~318

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.

  2. Value Narrative – outline business impact, ROI proof, and reference customers per play.
  3. Commercial Guardrails – specify packaging, pricing, approvals, and compensation cues.

Tips
