Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. 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
Personal Statement loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 150 tokens; SKILL.md has 554 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

- personal-statement
- description
- Write a personal statement for a university, grad-school, or job application that's specific, coherent, and unmistakably you — showing fit and motivation, not a résumé in prose. Use when asked to write my personal statement, help with my university/grad application essay, statement of purpose, or make my personal statement stronger. Produces a read of what this program/role wants, a clear through-line (your motivation and fit), a structure that shows rather than lists, evidence from your real experience, and an authentic voice — drawing it out of you, not inventing a story.
Personal Statement
A personal statement fails when it's a résumé rewritten in paragraphs, or a generic "I've always been passionate" essay that could be about anyone. A strong one has a through-line — why you, why this, and the evidence — told in your own voice. This helps you find that thread and build the statement from your genuine experience, tuned to what the specific program or role is looking for.
What This Skill Produces
- A fit read — what this specific program/role values and wants to see (motivation, fit, potential), so the statement targets it
- A clear through-line — the central thread (your motivation and why you fit) that gives the statement coherence instead of a list
- A show-don't-list structure — an opening, evidence from real experience that demonstrates your claims, and a close on fit and goals
- Evidence over assertion — specific experiences and results that prove your qualities, not adjectives about yourself
- An authentic voice — genuinely yours, not inflated or generic
- Drawn from you — prompts to surface your material; it shapes your truth, it doesn't fabricate
Required Inputs
Ask for these if not provided:
- The target — the program/role, institution/company, and any prompt or word limit
- What they want — the field, and what this program/role emphasizes
- Your material — experiences, motivations, results, and goals (as much as you'll share)
- Your angle — why you want this and what makes you a fit
- Any draft — existing text to strengthen
Framework: Through-Line, Evidence, Fit
- Understand what they want. Different programs/roles prize different things (research potential, clinical experience, specific skills, motivation) — target the statement to this, not a one-size essay.
- Find the through-line. A single coherent thread — your motivation and the logic of your path to this — turns a list of achievements into a story with direction.
- Show with evidence. Demonstrate your qualities through specific experiences and results, rather than asserting "I'm dedicated and hardworking."
- Structure with purpose. Hook the reader, build the case with real material, and close on why you fit and where you're headed.
- Sound like you. Keep an authentic, genuine voice; avoid inflation and cliché, which admissions readers see instantly.
- Stay honest and on-brief. Build from real experience within the word limit and prompt — never invent.

Output Format
Personal statement: [program/role] · [field] · limit [x]
What they want: [program/role values → what to emphasize]. Your through-line: [the central motivation/fit thread]. Structure
- Opening: [a hook rooted in something real].
- Body: [evidence — experiences/results that show your qualities and path].
- Close: [why you fit + your goals].
Show, don't assert: [replace "I'm dedicated" with proof]. Voice: [authentic, not inflated].
Built from your real experience — this helps you tell your story, not invent one.
Quality Checks
- Targets what the specific program/role values
- Has a clear motivation/fit through-line, not a list
- Shows qualities with evidence rather than asserting them
- Uses a purposeful hook-build-close structure
- Keeps an authentic voice, no cliché/inflation
- Stays within the prompt/word limit; nothing fabricated
Anti-Patterns
- A résumé in prose — listing achievements with no thread.
- Generic "always been passionate" openings.
- Asserting qualities with no evidence.
- Ignoring what the specific program/role wants.
- Inflated voice or fabricated experiences.
Example Trigger Phrases
- "Help me write my personal statement for university."
- "I need a statement of purpose for grad school."
- "Make my application essay show fit, not just list my achievements."
- "Strengthen my personal statement draft."
- "Why-this-program essay — help me find my angle."
