What it does

Dnd5e Srd is an agent skill from Microck/ordinary-claude-skills. Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) skill for the D&D 5e System Reference Document (SRD). Use when answering questions about D&D 5e core rules, spells, combat, equipment, conditions, monsters, and other SRD content. This skill provides agentic search-based access to the SRD split into page-range markdown files.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `metadata.json`).

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering Retrieval-augmented generation. It works with Python. The repository describes itself as: An unappealing collection of Claude Skills and resources.

When your agent uses it

  • Answering questions about D&D 5e core rules
  • Other SRD content

Example prompts

  • “/dnd5e-srd”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify Relevant Page Ranges
  2. Search Using the Python Tools
  3. Expand Context When Needed
  4. Multi-hop Queries
  5. Provide Accurate Answers with Source Citations
  6. Search Tool (search_with_positions.py)
  7. Context Expansion Tool (expand_context.py)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1056d29. 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:

    • python

    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

Dnd5e Srd loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 81 tokens; SKILL.md has 599 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~81
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 599 words (~1,818 tokens).

“This skill provides search-based retrieval access to the Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition System Reference Document (SRD), organized by page ranges as markdown files in the references/ directory.”
