  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Plan is an agent skill from juliepy/AI-Engineer-from-scrach. Analyze a ticket or feature description, read the codebase, identify risks, and write a context-rich implementation plan to plans/<feature-slug-plan.md. No code is written in this phase.

Its SKILL.md is about 750 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Planning.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Planning

Example prompts

  • “/plan”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  1. Understand the ticket
  2. Read the codebase
  3. Think through risks
  4. Write the plan to a file
  5. Confirm

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d9e02cb. 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 (its code samples are markdown).

    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

Plan loads about 746 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 48 tokens; SKILL.md has 239 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~48
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~746

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 239 words (~746 tokens).
