What it does

Legend Lore is an agent skill from Hmbown/Wizards-of-the-Ghosts. Use this spell when you need everything knowable about a person, company, library, framework, concept, or system — not a quick answer, but a deep dossier.

Its SKILL.md is about 440 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: Unofficial Hermes Agent skill pack built from fantasy spell and skill names. The licence is CC0-1.0.

Example prompts

  • “/legend-lore”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Accept the named subject and any known context or constraints on scope.
  2. Search exhaustively across documentation, source code, academic papers, web, and community knowledge.
  3. Cross-reference findings and resolve contradictions between sources.
  4. Return a structured dossier with sourced claims, confidence levels, and identified gaps.

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

Legend Lore loads about 436 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 205 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~436

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.

Legend Lore

Research any named entity exhaustively across all available sources.

Overview

Legend Lore is interpreted here as a metaphorical spell with a shipping-now execution model.

Canonical source: Legend Lore (spell)

Provider target: OpenClaw

When To Use

  • You have a name or identifier and need comprehensive background before making a decision.
  • A quick search is insufficient — you need cross-referenced depth from docs, repos, papers, and web.
  • You are entering unfamiliar territory and want the full map before acting.

Workflow

  1. Accept the named subject and any known context or constraints on scope.
  2. Search exhaustively across documentation, source code, academic papers, web, and community knowledge.
  3. Cross-reference findings and resolve contradictions between sources.
  4. Return a structured dossier with sourced claims, confidence levels, and identified gaps.

Deliverables

  • A comprehensive, sourced research dossier on the named subject.
  • A confidence-rated summary distinguishing established facts from community consensus from speculation.
  • A list of known unknowns and suggested next research steps.

Guardrails

  • Cite sources for all non-trivial claims. Do not present inference as established fact.
  • Respect access boundaries — do not attempt to access paywalled, private, or restricted sources without authorization.

Default Invocation

Use $legend-lore to build a comprehensive research dossier on this subject, with sourced claims and confidence levels.
