What it does
Roast is an agent skill from jigripokri/POHA. Generate a group-chat roast on demand. Tuned to the specific group's tone. Use with caution.
Its SKILL.md is about 520 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: Personal Overnight Helper Agent. Runs while you sleep. Serves up a morning brief before your alarm. The licence is MIT.
Example prompts
- “/roast”
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Identify the target (a person, a recent message they sent, a running joke).
- Read the last 30–50 messages in the group chat. Critical step — the roast has to match the group's existing tone and reference shared…
- Identify the roastable seam
- Calibrate intensity to the group
- Generate 2–3 options. Different angles or escalation levels.
- Show the options. Wait for "send X."
- On approval, send via WhatsApp/Slack/wherever the group lives.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 68f3e38. 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
Roast loads about 524 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 25 tokens; SKILL.md has 297 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.

- description
- Generate a group-chat roast on demand. Tuned to the specific group's tone. Use with caution.
/roast
User wants to deploy a roast in a group chat. You write it. They send it.
Recipe
Identify the target (a person, a recent message they sent, a running joke).
Read the last 30–50 messages in the group chat. Critical step — the roast has to match the group's existing tone and reference shared material.
Identify the roastable seam:
- A recent flex that backfired
- A predictable behavior pattern of the target
- A callback to an old joke at their expense
- A new piece of information that contradicts their stated position
- A comparison that punctures their self-image
Calibrate intensity to the group:
- Light: gentle ribbing, lots of love underneath
- Medium: pointed, but with a clear out (target can laugh)
- Hot: no quarter, but stays inside group norms
Default to Medium unless the group's recent tone is clearly Hot.
Generate 2–3 options. Different angles or escalation levels.
Show the options. Wait for "send X."
On approval, send via WhatsApp/Slack/wherever the group lives.
Roast rules (hard limits)
- No body-shaming. Ever.
- No real shots at the target's family unless they've made a self-deprecating reference first.
- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia. Even when group "ironically" jokes that way.
- No quoting from carry-on.md. This skill cannot reference any private file.
- No bringing up the target's actual current pain (job loss, health, relationship). Roasts are for ambient material, not actual wounds.
- One landed roast > three forced ones. If nothing's good enough, say so. "Nothing roastable in this thread right now — wait for them to set something up."
Voice rules
Mirror the group's vocabulary, slang, and inside jokes. A good roast feels like the group wrote it, not an outsider.
If the user wants the AI's voice to come through, that's a different skill — this one is invisible.

How many tokens does Roast use?
About 524 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.1k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
