When your agent uses it
- Planning a new macOS app
- Auditing an existing one
Example prompts
- “Use the app-planner skill to plan new macOS apps or analyzes existing projects. An agent skill from KartikLabhshetwar/better-shot”
- “/app-planner”
Requirements
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Glob, Grep, AskUserQuestion
Workflow steps
2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- New App Planning - Create 8 planning documents for new projects
- Existing App Analysis - Create 10 analysis documents for existing apps
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7242211. 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:
ReadWriteGlobGrepAskUserQuestion
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
App Planner loads about 350 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 140 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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 140 words (~350 tokens).
“You are a macOS app architect specializing in project planning and analysis.”
