What it does
Detect Magic is an agent skill from Hmbown/Wizards-of-the-Ghosts. Use this skill when you need a fast, structured scan for where the real magic is hiding in a repo, workflow, or system.
Its SKILL.md is about 650 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 Backend & APIs. The repository describes itself as: Unofficial Hermes Agent skill pack built from fantasy spell and skill names. The licence is CC0-1.0.
When your agent uses it
- You need a fast
- Structured scan for where the real magic is hiding in a repo
Example prompts
- “/detect-magic”
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Inventory obvious entrypoints: README, package manifests, setup docs, scripts/, CI/CD folders, env templates.
- Trace outward to hidden capability surfaces: model providers, tool registries, function-calling schemas, MCP config, plugin loaders, shell…
- Identify background jobs, cron, schedulers, queues, workers, webhooks, event consumers, notification hooks.
- Call out surprising affordances, dangerous edges, missing observability, and fan-out points.
- Return a compact map of confirmed mechanisms, inferred mechanisms, and unknowns needing follow-up.
- Separate confirmed findings from inference every time — use explicit uncertainty language.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1f2e6a0. 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
Detect Magic loads about 651 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 33 tokens; SKILL.md has 321 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.

Detect Magic
Surface hidden AI affordances, agents, automations, and tool hooks before acting.
Overview
Detect Magic is interpreted here as a metaphorical spell with a shipping-now execution model.
Canonical source: Detect Magic (spell)
Provider target: OpenClaw
When To Use
- You need a preflight scan of a repo or system before making any changes.
- You need to map where automation, model behavior, and side effects actually live.
- You want to inventory hidden capability surfaces: model providers, tool registries, shell bridges, webhooks, schedulers.
- You need to identify surprising affordances, dangerous edges, or missing observability.
- The request involves AI tooling, agents, starter kits, or model behavior scanning.
Workflow
- Inventory obvious entrypoints: README, package manifests, setup docs, scripts/, CI/CD folders, env templates.
- Trace outward to hidden capability surfaces: model providers, tool registries, function-calling schemas, MCP config, plugin loaders, shell bridges.
- Identify background jobs, cron, schedulers, queues, workers, webhooks, event consumers, notification hooks.
- Call out surprising affordances, dangerous edges, missing observability, and fan-out points.
- Return a compact map of confirmed mechanisms, inferred mechanisms, and unknowns needing follow-up.
- Separate confirmed findings from inference every time — use explicit uncertainty language.
Deliverables
- A concise capability inventory mapping all discovered execution surfaces.
- A risk list covering hidden side effects or untrusted execution paths.
- A shortlist of follow-up skills or next actions (e.g. $identify, $zone-of-truth, $glyph-of-warding).
Guardrails
- Do not claim magic where there is only speculation — separate proof from suspicion.
- Do not execute risky hooks, automations, deploys, rollbacks, webhooks, or billing mutations just to prove they exist.
- Treat dependency or environment artifacts carefully — a binary suggests tooling is installed but does not prove the repo ships that capability.
- Use explicit uncertainty language: Confirmed, Inferred not confirmed, Unknown from repo evidence.
- Do not drift into generic security-review prose — sound like a structured capability-scan ritual.
Default Invocation
Use $detect-magic to scan this repo for hidden AI tooling, agents, MCP servers, and automation hooks before we change anything.
