Send IM messages to users in batch. An agent skill from Harryoung/efka.

  • Works in 3 steps: Upload table + filter conditions: Notify… → Upload target list: Notify specified… → All-staff notification: Notify everyone
  • Administrators request batch notifications
  • SKILL.md covers Typical Scenarios, Quick Start, Detailed Workflow and pandas Query Patterns, plus 3 more sections
  • Calls python3

What it does

Batch Notification is an agent skill from Harryoung/efka. Send IM messages to users in batch. Used for notifying specific user groups, sending after table filtering, all-staff notifications, etc. Use this Skill when administrators request batch notifications, mass messaging, or notifications after table filtering. Trigger words: notify/send/mass + users/batch/table.

Its SKILL.md is about 510 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `EXAMPLES.md`, `PANDAS_PATTERNS.md` and `WORKFLOW.md`).

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering DataFrames. It works with pandas. The repository describes itself as: AI-powered knowledge management without vector embeddings. Built upon Claude Agent SDK, File system based, Agent driven. Maybe slower, but results are much more reliable! The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Administrators request batch notifications
  • Notifications after table filtering
  • Words: notify/send/mass + users/batch/table

Example prompts

  • “/batch-notification”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. Upload table + filter conditions: Notify all users with benefits points greater than 0
  2. Upload target list: Notify specified user list
  3. All-staff notification: Notify everyone

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9e6d3a4. 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:

    • python3

    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

Batch Notification loads about 512 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 136 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~82
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~512

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.

description
Send IM messages to users in batch. Used for notifying specific user groups, sending after table filtering, all-staff notifications, etc. Use this Skill when administrators request batch notifications, mass messaging, or notifications after table filtering. Trigger words: notify/send/mass + users/batch/table.

Batch User Notification

Support administrators to send IM notification messages to users in batch.

Typical Scenarios

  1. Upload table + filter conditions: Notify all users with benefits points greater than 0
  2. Upload target list: Notify specified user list
  3. All-staff notification: Notify everyone

Quick Start

All-staff Notification
python
mcp__{channel}__send_markdown_message(
    touser="@all",
    content="## Notification Title\n\nNotification content..."
)
Filtered Notification
bash
python3 -c "
import pandas as pd
mapping = pd.read_excel('knowledge_base/企业管理/人力资源/user_mapping.xlsx')
business = pd.read_excel('/tmp/data.xlsx')
filtered = business[business['积分'] > 0]
result = pd.merge(filtered, mapping, on='工号', how='inner')
print('|'.join(result['企业微信用户ID'].tolist()))
"

Detailed Workflow

Complete 5-stage workflow, see WORKFLOW.md

pandas Query Patterns

Common filtering, JOIN, date processing patterns, see PANDAS_PATTERNS.md

Example Scenarios

Complete end-to-end examples, see EXAMPLES.md

Core Principles

  1. Privacy protection: Notifications are one-on-one private chats, messages must not contain other people's information
  2. Must confirm: Must wait for administrator reply "confirm send" after constructing message
  3. Python first: All table processing uses pandas
  4. Result transparency: Clearly report sending results (success/failure counts)

Available Tools

  • Bash: Execute pandas scripts
  • mcp__{channel}__send_markdown_message: Send Markdown messages
  • mcp__{channel}__send_text_message: Send plain text messages
