What it does
Convention Extraction is an agent skill from Habitat-Thinking/ai-literacy-superpowers. Use when setting up a new project's conventions, onboarding AI to an existing codebase, after team composition changes, or when AI output quality varies depending on who prompts — guides structured discovery of tacit team knowledge into explicit, enforceable artefacts
Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/extraction-interview-guide.md`).
It sits in Agent Workflows. 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….

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
Convention Extraction loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 728 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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 728 words (~1,583 tokens).
“Most team conventions live in people's heads — pattern recognition built from years of reviews, production incidents, and architectural discussions. They transfer slowly through pairing and code review, and walk out the door when someone leaves. AI amplifies this: without…”

How many tokens does Convention Extraction use?
About 1.6k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 6.3k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 1.7k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
