What it does
Handouts is an agent skill from nateberkopec/dotfiles. Compose and typeset polished PDFs for personal reading on paper. Use when asked for a handout, reading packet, printable report, comparison brief, or one-page guide, including research reports and existing text needing layout. Existing PDFs that only need printing belong to the printing skill instead.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 18 other files (for example `evals/README.md`, `evals/evals.json` and `evals/files/family-flight-options/flight-options-2026-10-01.json`).
It sits in Documents & Office, covering Deep research. The repository describes itself as: yup we're doin the thing.
When your agent uses it
- Asked for a handout
- Printable report
- Comparison brief
- Including research reports and existing text needing layout
Example prompts
- “/handouts”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c60133f. 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:
pdftotext
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
Handouts loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 78 tokens; SKILL.md has 999 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 999 words (~1,821 tokens).
“Make a document the reader can comfortably read, compare, annotate, or use beside the task. Own composition, typography, graphics placement, PDF production, and validation; choose any available production toolchain.”
