What it does

Kedro Babysit is an agent skill from kedro-org/kedro. Run Kedro's local lint / format / type-check / tests on changed files (uses the project's pre-commit hooks, ruff, mypy, pytest, lint-imports, detect-secrets, Make targets — in the right venv), or diagnose and fix failing CI on an open PR. Also resolves clear merge conflicts and ensures DCO sign-off. Use whenever the user asks to: lint / format / typecheck / test their diff or changed files, run ruff / mypy / pytest / pre-commit on their code, verify changes before commit or push, babysit local changes or a PR…

Its SKILL.md is about 4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including scripts (for example `reference.md`, `scripts/bootstrap_env.sh` and `scripts/run_local_checks.sh`).

It sits in Development, covering Linting and formatting, Unit testing and Type safety. It works with pytest, Ruff and Python. The repository describes itself as: Kedro is a toolbox for production-ready data science. It uses software engineering best practices to help you create data engineering and data science pipelines that are…

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to: lint / format / typecheck / test their diff
  • Run ruff / mypy / pytest / pre-commit on their code
  • Verify changes before commit
  • Babysit local changes

Example prompts

  • “/kedro-babysit”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • A Bash shell

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify the PR + preflight Track: C
  2. Set up the Python environment Tracks: L, C
  3. Snapshot the PR state Track: C
  4. Fix in this fixed order Tracks: L, C — sub-bullets gate per track too
  5. Verify locally → commit + push

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 29b5365. 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

    Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git
    • make
    • gh
    • bash
    • ruff
    • pip
    • mypy
    • pytest

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, gh and pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Kedro Babysit loads about 4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 196 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,974 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~196
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4k

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); the scripts in this folder 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 1,974 words (~4,002 tokens).

“Drive Kedro changes toward a mergeable state — locally before push, or on an open PR with failing CI. Fix mechanical CI failures, resolve clear merge conflicts, ensure DCO sign-off. Use a conservative posture: stop and ask the user before…”
