What it does

Coda is an agent skill from Habitat-Thinking/ai-literacy-superpowers. Use when closing an agentic session deliberately rather than by attrition — carries the four-step ritual (survey, park, closure summary and reflection, close), the anchor grammar behind the next-action question, the evidence for why a specific written plan releases an unfinished thread, and the anti-patterns that would turn a closing ritual into a gate on the person

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k 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: A set of Claude Code and GitHub Copilot plugins providing the AI Literacy framework's complete development workflow — harness engineering, agent orchestration, literate….

When your agent uses it

  • Closing an agentic session deliberately rather than by attrition — carries the four-step ritual (survey
  • Closure summary and reflection
  • The anchor grammar behind the next-action question
  • The evidence for why a specific written plan releases an unfinished thread

Example prompts

  • “/coda”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Refusing a next action. The check asks; it never rejects. A sentinel
  2. Deciding the grouping alone. That judgement determines the whole shape
  3. Recording why the human stopped. That a session closed and what was
  4. Continuing the ritual after being asked to stop. Say what has already
  5. Writing a file from the agent. The agent returns content; the command
  6. Surfacing parked records more than once a session. SessionStart

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9d35995. 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

Coda loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 93 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,043 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~93
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k

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 1,043 words (~1,904 tokens).

“An agentic session has no terminal cue. There is no compile, no deploy, no colleague standing up to leave — the medium supplies nothing that says this is finished. So sessions end by attrition: the human stops when something external…”

What does Coda need to run?

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

How many tokens does Coda use?

About 1.9k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 7.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
