What it does

Money Upgrade is an agent skill from iamzifei/show-me-the-money. Auto-update the show-me-the-money skill suite to the latest version. One command checks npm for a new version, downloads it, replaces the installed skills, and shows what changed. Use when the user wants to update skills, check for new versions, or says 'upgrade money', 'update skills', 'latest version', 'auto-update', or 'check for updates'.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with npm. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code skill suite that builds and runs a 24/7 automated business from scratch — from idea discovery to revenue generation.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants to update skills
  • Check for new versions
  • Says upgrade money
  • Check for updates

Example prompts

  • “upgrade money”
  • “update skills”
  • “latest version”
  • “/money-upgrade”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Print current state
  2. Check for updates
  3. Run the updater
  4. Show what changed
  5. Remind to restart

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b1e2f9e. 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:

    • npx
    • npm
    • curl

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • status.npmjs.org

    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

Money Upgrade loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 90 tokens; SKILL.md has 711 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~90
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

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 711 words (~1,694 tokens).

“One command updates every money-* skill to the latest published version. No manual file copying, no version comparison by hand, no risk of partial installs.”
