Example prompts

  • “/skillify”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify the repeated trigger, goal, inputs, and outputs.
  2. Separate durable workflow rules from one-off project details.
  3. Draft a VS Code-compatible SKILL.md with frontmatter and concise instructions.
  4. Include activation phrases, boundaries, verification steps, and failure modes.
  5. Ask for approval before installing the skill into .github/skills/.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 12b2c29. 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

Skillify loads about 236 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 35 tokens; SKILL.md has 95 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~35
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~236

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.
