What it does

Building And Verifying is an agent skill from NangoHQ/nango. Use when building the Nango monorepo or verifying TypeScript compilation - covers build commands, project references, common tsc errors, and package dependency order

Its SKILL.md is about 900 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 Development, covering Monorepo tooling. It works with TypeScript and npm. The repository describes itself as: Connect your agents & product to 1,000 APIs.

When your agent uses it

  • Building the Nango monorepo
  • Verifying TypeScript compilation - covers build commands
  • Project references
  • Common tsc errors

Example prompts

  • “/building-and-verifying”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  1. Core: types, utils, frontend — no internal deps
  2. Infrastructure: database, kvstore, logs, keystore
  3. Services: shared, node-client, nango-yaml, runner, scheduler, orchestrator
  4. Applications: server, webapp, connect-ui, cli

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b309bc1. 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:

    • npm
    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm and 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

Building And Verifying loads about 902 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 47 tokens; SKILL.md has 359 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~47
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~902

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 359 words (~902 tokens).

“Nango is a TypeScript monorepo using npm workspaces and TypeScript project references (no Turborepo/Nx). Build order matters — packages depend on each other via tsconfig.build.json references.”
