What it does

Tendril Extension is an agent skill from Ivy-Interactive/Ivy-Tendril. Manage, build, test, package, install, and debug the Ivy Tendril extension in Antigravity IDE and VS Code. Use when the user asks to install, link, update, build, test, or package the Ivy Tendril extension for Antigravity IDE.

Its SKILL.md is about 640 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/antigravity-integration.md`, `scripts/install-antigravity.sh` and `scripts/package-vsix.sh`).

It works with Visual Studio Code. The repository describes itself as: AI agents can now write 99% of the code. This changes what it means to be a developer. Our role shifts to knowing "what good looks like". To do that, we need completely new…

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to install
  • Package the Ivy Tendril extension for Antigravity IDE

Example prompts

  • “/tendril-extension”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • A Bash shell

Workflow steps

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

  1. Install / Link to Antigravity IDE
  2. Package as .vsix Archive
  3. Run Extension Tests & Typecheck
  4. Uninstall / Unlink from Antigravity IDE

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3a1a241. 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

    Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • pnpm
    • npx

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pnpm and npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Tendril Extension loads about 635 tokens when it runs, and up to ~966 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 61 tokens; SKILL.md has 192 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~61
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~635
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~966

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: warnings

The automated check found patterns that need a careful read before installing.

  • WarningMentions a credentials file (SSH keys, cloud or package-manager tokens)SKILL.md:17
    `pnpm` (fixed versions configured via `.npmrc`)

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); the scripts in this folder 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 192 words (~635 tokens).

“This skill provides procedures and helper scripts for building, testing, packaging, and installing the Ivy Tendril extension directly into Antigravity IDE or VS Code.”
