Klingai Upgrade Migration

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Upgrading from v1.x to v2.x
• Adopting new features
• With phrases like klingai upgrade
• Kling ai migrate

Example prompts

• “klingai upgrade”
• “kling ai migrate”
• “klingai version update”
• “/klingai-upgrade-migration”

Requirements

• Python 3
• Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Designed for Claude Code
• Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Bash(npm:*), Grep

Workflow steps

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

1. 1Snapshot the current request schema, model flag, output retention, and aggregate baseline. Check the provider's current model…
2. 2Run the same synthetic fixture against source and target in sandbox. Compare capability support, policy outcomes, quality, latency, and…
3. 3Obtain owner approval for the target, budget delta, and acceptance thresholds. Release behind KLING_MODEL_VERSION to one draft/watermarked…
4. 4Keep the source version available until the migration window closes. Revoke temporary test credentials, delete rejected or superseded…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

• Tool permissions

  Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

  • Read
  • Write
  • Edit
  • Bash(npm:*)
  • Grep

  From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

• Runs code

  No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are 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.

• Compatibility

  Designed for Claude Code

  From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Klingai Upgrade Migration loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 537 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~63

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1.7k

With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them

~3.7k

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

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.
