What it does
Gfonts is an agent skill from mvanhorn/printing-press-library. Search, browse, and download Google Fonts from the terminal via the gfonts CLI. No API key required. Use when the user asks about fonts, font recommendations, font pairing, or needs to download typefaces.
Its SKILL.md is about 570 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Typography. The repository describes itself as: Official library of CLIs generated by the CLI Printing Press. Endorsed, tested, and community-contributed.
When your agent uses it
- The user asks about fonts
- Font recommendations
- Needs to download typefaces
Example prompts
- “/gfonts”
Requirements
- Node.js
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Install via the Printing Press installer. It defaults binaries to $HOME/.local/bin on macOS/Linux and…
- Verify: gfonts-pp-cli --version
- Ensure the reported install directory is on $PATH for the agent/runtime that will invoke this skill.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 76de244. 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:
npxgo
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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
Gfonts loads about 574 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 194 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.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 194 words (~574 tokens).
“This file is a verbatim mirror of library/developer-tools/gfonts/SKILL.md, regenerated post-merge by tools/generate-skills/. Hand-edits here are silently overwritten on the next regen. Edit the library/ source instead. See the repository agent guide, section "Generated artifacts: registry.json, cli-skills/". -->”
