What it does

Publish Agent Skill is an agent skill from mizchi/skills. Package, publish, verify and update an agent skill through a Claude Code plugin marketplace, APM or the npx skills CLI. Use when preparing skill distribution or diagnosing installation, missing resources and stale updates.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 15 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `README.md`, `assets/apm.yml` and `assets/marketplace-flat.json`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Monitoring and alerting and Hooks and plugins. The repository describes itself as: Agent skills by mizchi, distributed via APM.

When your agent uses it

  • Preparing skill distribution
  • Diagnosing installation
  • Missing resources and stale updates

Example prompts

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 62f5808. 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 1 file in scripts/ (JavaScript), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • node
    • npx
    • ruby

    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):

    • agentskills.io

    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

Publish Agent Skill loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 61 tokens; SKILL.md has 720 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~61
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.7k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~5.7k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 720 words (~1,747 tokens).

“Keep one portable skill directory as the source of truth, then verify each requested distribution channel from a consumer's environment. Publishing means both discoverable metadata and an install that delivers the instructions and resources at the intended revision.”
