At a glance

Help complete beginners set up their development environment.

  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Env Setup is an agent skill from ilang-ai/autocode. Help complete beginners set up their development environment. Detect Mac or other. Guide VPS purchase and SSH setup step by step.

Its SKILL.md is about 310 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: You say it. AutoCode ships it. 48 skills. Code to deployment in one session. iLang v5.0 judgment + secret-safe deploys. Free forever. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/env-setup”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8629dc2. 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

Env Setup loads about 313 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 35 tokens; SKILL.md has 88 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~35
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~313

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.
