What it does
Herdr Board is an agent skill from nelsonPires5/herdr-board. Interact with the herdr-board kanban from inside an agent run or an interactive session. Use whenever you need to report progress on a board card, close out a run, add or edit a comment, move/cancel/retry a card, inspect cards or columns, or create new work on the board. Triggers on mentions of the board, cards, columns, kanban, board comment/done/move, or $BOARDCARDID.
Its SKILL.md is about 4.6k 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 Productivity & Automation, covering Sprint planning and agile and Task management. The repository describes itself as: Kanban board for herdr — cards are prompts dispatched to AI agents in visible panes.
When your agent uses it
- You need to report progress on a board card
- Close out a run
- Move/cancel/retry a card
- Create new work on the board
Example prompts
- “/herdr-board”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 754c836. 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 bash).
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
Herdr Board loads about 4.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 97 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,987 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 1,987 words (~4,619 tokens).
“This is the operational skill for people and dispatched agents using herdr-board. It covers the TUI, CLI, cards, runs, comments, columns, and Herdr-backed spaces; it does not prescribe how to develop, prototype, test, or release herdr-board itself.”
