What it does

Org Chart is an agent skill from microsoft/work-iq, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Display a beautifully formatted ASCII org chart for any person in the organization — showing their manager, peers, and direct reports in a visual tree.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: MCP Server and CLI for accessing Work IQ.

Example prompts

  • “/org-chart”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify the Current User
  2. Resolve the Target Person
  3. Fetch Org Data
  4. Clean Up Direct Reports
  5. Classify Roles for Layout
  6. Render the Org Chart

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1060873. 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

    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

Org Chart loads about 3.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,173 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~40
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.1k

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 1,173 words (~3,150 tokens).

“Render a visual ASCII org chart for any person in the organization. Shows the target person in context — their manager above, their peers alongside, and their direct reports below — in a clear tree layout that fits the terminal.”
