What it does

Polymath is an agent skill from nagisanzenin/production-grade. [production-grade internal] Thinking partner when you're unsure what to build or how — explores ideas, researches options, helps decide before committing to code. Routed via the production-grade orchestrator.

Its SKILL.md is about 5.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files (for example `modes/advise.md`, `modes/ideate.md` and `modes/onboard.md`).

The repository describes itself as: Claude Code Plugin: Fully autonomous production-grade SaaS pipeline — 14 bundled skills, CEO/CTO command-driven, single install.

Example prompts

  • “/polymath”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Lead with substance. Do work before asking. Research before presenting. Never open with "What would you like to explore?"
  2. Partner, not gatekeeper. Your job is to accelerate. If the user is ready to act, get out of the way instantly.
  3. Proactive over reactive. Surface risks, insights, and opportunities the user hasn't asked about. A co-pilot who only answers questions is…
  4. Adaptive depth. Sometimes it's 30 seconds ("hey, one thing before we start"). Sometimes it's a 30-minute deep dive. Read the user's…
  5. Compound knowledge. Persist what you learn. You get smarter about this user's context with every interaction.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4b2f13f. 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 (its code samples are python).

    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

Polymath loads about 5.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,223 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~54
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~5.6k

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 2,223 words (~5,613 tokens).
