What it does
Bind Mr Description is an agent skill from isc-projects/bind9. Drafting BIND 9 merge-request titles and descriptions — they feed the generated release notes, so the audience is system administrators. Use whenever writing or reviewing an MR title/description, when a change "needs a release note", or when tempted to touch doc/notes/.
Its SKILL.md is about 670 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 Development, covering Changelog and release notes. The repository describes itself as: Archived mirror of https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9, please submit issues and PR/MRs in the GitLab. The licence is MPL-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Reviewing an MR title/description
- A change needs a release note
- Tempted to touch doc/notes/
Example prompts
- “needs a release note”
- “/bind-mr-description”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 12d28b2. 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
Bind Mr Description loads about 674 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 324 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.

BIND 9 MR titles & descriptions
The MR title + description ARE the release note — ISC's release tooling
generates doc/notes/ entries from merged MRs. Audience: system
administrators, not engineers.
Security framing: bug vs vulnerability
Local-filesystem misbehavior is a BUG, not a vulnerability. BIND treats the local filesystem as trusted: no "privilege escalation", "local attacker", "exploit", "vulnerability", or CVE/severity language for symlink-following, local TOCTOU, or service-account issues. Describe it operationally ("X followed symlinks and could overwrite the wrong file"). Reserve security framing for remote or protocol surfaces: network input, DNS message parsing, configuration from an untrusted publisher, signed-zone integrity. Defensive code (lstat/O_NOFOLLOW, mkstemp) remains the right fix — only the framing changes.
Title
Short (under ~70 chars), leading with the user-visible impact (crash, wrong answers, resource exhaustion, new capability).
Description
- One short paragraph (typically 2–4 sentences), single flow: the operational problem, then the fix. No section headings, no bullet lists, no restating of the commit message.
- Describe the trigger in operational terms — what the admin configures or does, what they observe. No function/struct/variable names, no programming jargon (TOCTOU, NULL dereference, use-after-free...).
- Don't list individual changes; summarize the combined effect. Test-only or developer-only options get at most a brief mention at the end.
- Don't add
Closes #NNNN. - Scale to the change: a one-line fix gets ~3 sentences, not a structured template.
Internal-only exception: for refactors with no operator-visible impact the audience is developers — naming internal functions is fine — but the title and description stay just as terse.
Hard rules
- NO
Assisted-by:in MR titles or descriptions — that trailer belongs on commits; in release-note material it is noise for sysadmins. - NEVER create or edit files under
doc/notes/— those are generated from merged MRs. A branch without adoc/notes/change is not missing anything; do not flag it in reviews. "Needs a release note" means: write a good MR title and description. - Hand the finished title/description to the user as text; never open the MR yourself (see the bind-commit skill's boundary).
