What it does

Youtrack Community is an agent skill from JetBrains/intellij-community, published by the product's own GitHub organization. YouTrack CLI for a community checkout; the monorepo uses youtrack.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `evals/evals.json`, `references/cli-reference.md` and `references/raw-api.md`). Compatibility notes: Needs python3 and no third-party packages, plus a YouTrack permanent token. The 1Password CLI (op) is optional — used only when the token comes from an op://…

It sits in Development, covering Monorepo tooling. It works with JetBrains IDEs. The repository describes itself as: IntelliJ IDEA & IntelliJ Platform.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Monorepo tooling

Example prompts

  • “/youtrack-community”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A credential in YOUTRACK_TOKEN
  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Needs python3 and no third-party packages, plus a YouTrack permanent token. The 1Password CLI (op) is optional — used only when the token comes from an op:// secret path rather than YOUTRACK_TOKEN.
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, AskUserQuestion

Workflow steps

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

  1. token-op-path op://VAULT/ITEM/FIELD — read via the 1Password CLI
  2. $YOUTRACK_TOKEN
  3. $YOUTRACK_TOKEN_OP_PATH — an op:// path, read the same way

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 27dbc78. 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:

    • Bash
    • Read
    • AskUserQuestion

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • youtrack.jetbrains.com

    Also links to:

    • jetbrains.com
    • 1password.dev

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • YOUTRACK_TOKEN

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Needs python3 and no third-party packages, plus a YouTrack permanent token. The 1Password CLI (op) is optional — used only when the token comes from an op:// secret path rather than YOUTRACK_TOKEN.

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Youtrack Community loads about 3.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,784 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~22
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~6.6k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:92
    secret manager, their shell profile, a `.env` file they already keep out of version control,
  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash, Read, AskUserQuestion

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 1,784 words (~3,248 tokens).

“This skill is for standalone intellij-community checkouts only.”
