What it does

Drupalorg CLI is an agent skill from mglaman/drupalorg-cli. CLI for Drupal.org issue lifecycle management. Use when fetching issue details, generating patches/interdiffs, listing project or maintainer issues, looking up releases, or working with GitLab merge requests on issue forks. Also supports projects that have migrated to GitLab work items. Pass --format=llm to every read command for structured XML output optimised for agent consumption.

Its SKILL.md is about 670 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `references/gitlab-mr-contribution.md`, `references/patch-contribution.md` and `references/work-on-issue.md`).

It works with GitLab. The repository describes itself as: A command line tool for interfacing with Drupal.org.

When your agent uses it

  • Fetching issue details
  • Generating patches/interdiffs
  • Listing project
  • Maintainer issues

Example prompts

  • “/drupalorg-cli”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash(drupalorg:*), Bash(drupalorg skill:*)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9b085ab. 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:

    • Bash(drupalorg:*)
    • Bash(drupalorg skill:*)

    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 bash).

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • drupal.org

    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

Drupalorg CLI loads about 668 tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 198 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~100
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~668
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3.3k

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

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.
