What it does

Shijing Paper Zine is an agent skill from kangarooking/kangarooking-skills. Transform ordinary snapshots—including daily moments, portraits, objects, pets, food, interiors, streets, architecture, landscapes, travel, and humanistic scenes—into the restrained Shijing Paper Zine visual style. Use when the user wants any real photo turned into a spacious paper-editorial composition with an irregular photographic fragment, simplified source-derived drawing, one structural print color, tactile torn-paper texture, minimal micro-copy, a consistent multi-image series, or a source-to-poster…

Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including reference files and assets (for example `references/quality-gate.md` and `references/scene-routing.md`).

The repository describes itself as: My custom AI Agent skills.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants any real photo turned into a spacious paper-editorial composition with an irregular photographic fragment
  • Simplified source-derived drawing
  • One structural print color
  • Tactile torn-paper texture

Example prompts

  • “/shijing-paper-zine”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Anchor: the one subject or fragment that must remain recognizable.
  2. Relationship: the distance, overlap, direction, scale, or near/far tension that makes this scene particular.
  3. Eye path: the line that carries attention through the image—shoreline, road, gaze, railing, skyline, tree trunk, or repeated objects.
  4. Quiet field: sky, water, wall, ground, haze, or another low-information area that can become paper.
  5. Compression target: crowds, windows, foliage, cages, signs, gravel, waves, or other repeated detail that must be merged or removed.
  6. Color source: one meaningful hue or object from the photograph that can become structural color.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 08bbee0. 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

Shijing Paper Zine loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 136 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,164 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~136
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3.8k

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 1,164 words (~2,237 tokens).

“Turn an ordinary photograph into a quiet editorial page. Treat this as a visual style rather than a travel-photo format. Read the scene before choosing a treatment. Preserve the relationship that makes the photograph specific; remove visual noise before adding…”
