Using Agent Skills
addyosmani/agent-skills
Meta-skill for choosing which workflow skill fits the task at hand, plus always-on habits: surface assumptions, stop on confusion, push back, keep it simple and stay in scope.
A skill your agent uses when someone asks to link a project, file, folder, or important context into AGENTS.md or their AIOS routing, or says "link this into my AIOS" or "add this to my routing".

What it does
Link is an agent skill from nateherkai/AIS-OS. Use when someone asks to link a project, file, folder, or important context into AGENTS.md or their AIOS routing, or says "link this into my AIOS" or "add this to my routing".
Its SKILL.md is about 540 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Agent instruction files. The repository describes itself as: AI Operating System starter kit for Claude Code and Codex. Five skills: /onboard, /audit, /link, /level-up, and /3d-brain. Includes the Three Ms framework.
When your agent uses it
- Someone asks to link a project
- Important context into AGENTS.md
- Their AIOS routing
- Says link this into my AIOS
Example prompts
- “link this into my AIOS”
- “add this to my routing”
- “/link”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Confirm the intended project root. Read its applicable AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and relevant index. Do not edit an unrelated ancestor.
- Verify the target exists and inspect its purpose. For inaccessible URLs, label access unverified. If the target is missing, or its…
- Add one concise route: when to use it → exact path/link → entry point if needed. Put individual items in an existing domain/project index…
- If the full route already works from the runtime's manual, make no edit. Otherwise, preserve unrelated text and synchronize shared manual…
- Read back and follow manual → index → target. Check links and required manual parity. Report what was linked, where, and any unverified…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ce9cb93. 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
Link loads about 542 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 278 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
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 278 words (~542 tokens).
“Make the supplied target findable from the operating manual with the smallest useful routing edit. Input: $ARGUMENTS or the target from the conversation.”

- link
- disable-model-invocation
- true

Questions about Link
What does Link do?
A skill your agent uses when someone asks to link a project, file, folder, or important context into AGENTS.md or their AIOS routing, or says "link this into my AIOS" or "add this to my routing". Link is an agent skill from nateherkai/AIS-OS.md or their AIOS routing, or says "link this into my AIOS" or "add this to my routing".
When should I use Link?
Link fits situations like: someone asks to link a project; important context into AGENTS.md; their AIOS routing; says link this into my AIOS.
How do I install Link in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add nateherkai/AIS-OS --skill link -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/link in nateherkai/AIS-OS) into .claude/skills/link in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Link in Codex?
Run `npx skills add nateherkai/AIS-OS --skill link -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/link in nateherkai/AIS-OS) into .agents/skills/link in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Link 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 nateherkai/AIS-OS --skill link -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/link, .gemini/skills/link, .github/skills/link and .opencode/skills/link in your project.
What does Link need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Link is instructions for the agent only.
Does Link 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 Link 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 Link use?
Link has a licence file (the repository's licence) that doesn't match a standard licence. Read it on GitHub before reusing the skill.
How many tokens does Link use?
About 542 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2.2k 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 Link?
