What it does

Shrt is an agent skill from N4darae/shrt. Use when defining, running, or verifying an ordered chain of internal API calls to reproduce a state — writing a shrt chain YAML, authoring or reading an RPC contract, composing a chain from the contract graph, replaying a chain against a running backend, or diffing a replay against a confirmed safe spot. Triggers on "shrt", "chain", "contract", "replay the API flow", "reproduce this state", "safe spot", "which API broke".

Its SKILL.md is about 480 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 Backend & APIs, covering gRPC and Protobuf. The repository describes itself as: A contract-driven gRPC regression harness for AI coding agents, with human-approved baselines. Snapshot the valid call chains of an API so an agent can look one up instead of….

When your agent uses it

Verifying an ordered chain of internal API calls to reproduce a state — writing a shrt chain YAML
Reading an RPC contract
Composing a chain from the contract graph
Replaying a chain against a running backend

Example prompts

“contract”
“replay the API flow”
“reproduce this state”
“/shrt”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5ce8754. 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

Shrt loads about 483 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 108 tokens; SKILL.md has 202 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~108
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~483

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 202 words (~483 tokens).

“Record, replay and verify ordered chains of internal API calls. A chain is an ordered list of RPC calls that reproduces a backend state. A safe spot is a run a person approved as correct; later replays are diffed against…”

Shrt is an agent skill from N4darae/shrt. Use when defining, running, or verifying an ordered chain of internal API calls to reproduce a state — writing a shrt chain YAML, authoring or reading an RPC contract, composing a chain from the contract graph, replaying a chain against a running backend, or diffing a replay against a confirmed safe spot.

When should I use Shrt?

Shrt fits situations like: verifying an ordered chain of internal API calls to reproduce a state — writing a shrt chain YAML; reading an RPC contract; composing a chain from the contract graph; replaying a chain against a running backend.

How do I install Shrt in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add N4darae/shrt --skill shrt -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (agentkit/skill in N4darae/shrt) into .claude/skills/shrt in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Shrt in Codex?

Run `npx skills add N4darae/shrt --skill shrt -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (agentkit/skill in N4darae/shrt) into .agents/skills/shrt in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Shrt in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add N4darae/shrt --skill shrt -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/shrt, .gemini/skills/shrt, .github/skills/shrt and .opencode/skills/shrt in your project.

What does Shrt need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Shrt is instructions for the agent only.

Does Shrt access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Shrt safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Shrt use?

No licence was found for Shrt or its repository. Without one, default copyright applies: ask the author before reusing or redistributing it.

How many tokens does Shrt use?

About 483 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 1.9k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Shrt?

Skills that share tags, products or a category with Shrt: Use Yaak (mountain-loop/yaak, 19k stars), Nestjs Trpc (trycompai/crm, 11k stars), Backend Dev Guidelines (langfuse/langfuse, 36k stars) and Golang Pro (antoniopaya22/go-rest-template, 172 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.

Who maintains Shrt?
