It sits in Agent Workflows.

When your agent uses it

  • Agent Workflows work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/progress”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Read Progress and Quest Metadata
  2. Build the Quest Log
  3. Present the Quest Log
  4. Add Context Around the Table
  5. All Complete

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4abcc6d. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • ruby

    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

Progress loads about 645 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 29 tokens; SKILL.md has 352 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~29
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~645

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
