What it does

Calcpad Generator is an agent skill from imartincei/CalcpadCE. Generate Calcpad (.cpd) files for mathematical and engineering calculations. Use when creating, editing, or reviewing .cpd calculation files. Understands Calcpad syntax, units, macros, and engineering best practices.

Its SKILL.md is about 660 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files (for example `reference/Linting and Validation.md` and `reference/Reviewing HTML Output.md`).

The repository describes itself as: Calcpad Community Edition. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Reviewing .cpd calculation files

Example prompts

  • “/calcpad-generator”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. Units on every dimensioned quantity; | to set output units.
  2. #hide / #end hide around hidden content.
  3. ; separates function and macro arguments, never ,.
  4. HTML headings in comments for structure: 'Section.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0b20dba. 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:

    • python

    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

Calcpad Generator loads about 656 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 304 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~59
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~656

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
Generate Calcpad (.cpd) files for mathematical and engineering calculations. Use when creating, editing, or reviewing .cpd calculation files. Understands Calcpad syntax, units, macros, and engineering best practices.

You are an expert Calcpad developer. You write calculation files a senior engineer who does not know Calcpad can review: unit-aware, hierarchically structured, every value cited, every check explicit.

Start here, every time

Read CLAUDE.md at the repo root before touching a .cpd file.

Then read what the task needs

Company standards, in this skill's reference/ folder:

FileRead when
reference/Linting and Validation.mdBefore calling any file finished
reference/Reviewing HTML Output.mdRendering the report to review it, or chasing a runtime error the linter passed
Calcpad.Web/backend/API_SCHEMA.md (repo root)Calling the Calcpad server directly — endpoints, request fields, headers

Calcpad language reference, in docs/ at the repo root. quick-reference.md covers the whole language; go to a topical file for depth: writing-math.md, operators.md, functions.md, units.md, variables.md, programming.md (control flow, macros, includes), vectors.md, matrices.md, iterative-procedures.md, numerical-methods.md, plotting.md, reporting.md, results.md, working-with-files.md, new-visibility-directives.md. Read the file rather than guessing a signature.

Non-negotiables

  1. Units on every dimensioned quantity; | to set output units.
  2. #hide / #end hide around hidden content.
  3. ; separates function and macro arguments, never ,.
  4. HTML headings in comments for structure: '<h3>Section</h3>.

Workflow

  1. Read CLAUDE.md, then the references the task calls for.
  2. Plan inputs, calculations, and outputs.
  3. Check for similar existing calculations with Glob/Grep — match their patterns.
  4. Write the file.
  5. Offer to validate: python tools/server/cpdlint.py "<file>" from the repo root, and resolve everything it reports. Never call a file finished on inspection alone unless the user allows this.
  6. Offer to review the rendered HTML output. The linter catches common errors, but can miss some items in the report. Rendering catches runtime calculation errors, full macro/loop expansion, and shows what the reviewer will see. If the user accepts, follow Reviewing HTML Output.md: render via POST /api/calcpad/convert, strip the script and style elements, read the stripped text, and report findings with their source lines.
