Writing Specs is an agent skill from Netflix-Skunkworks/oci-agent. Invoke this skill when initiating an OCI analysis from a plan or user prompt — i.e. before any notebook is parameterized or executed. Keywords: - analysis spec, eval spec, spec.yaml - treatment, outcome, covariates, confounders - ATE, ATT, ATO, atothreshold - econml.ipynb, analysisnotebook - ACIC, acictreatment, acicresponse
Its SKILL.md is about 360 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 Data & Analytics, covering Jupyter notebooks. It works with Jupyter. The licence is Apache-2.0.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a978030. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
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.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Writing Specs loads about 364 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 131 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.
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.

Invoke this skill when initiating an OCI analysis from a plan or user prompt — i.e. Writing Specs is an agent skill from Netflix-Skunkworks/oci-agent.e.
Writing Specs fits situations like: tasks that involve Jupyter notebooks.
Run `npx skills add Netflix-Skunkworks/oci-agent --skill writing-specs -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/writing-specs in Netflix-Skunkworks/oci-agent) into .claude/skills/writing-specs in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add Netflix-Skunkworks/oci-agent --skill writing-specs -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/writing-specs in Netflix-Skunkworks/oci-agent) into .agents/skills/writing-specs in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Netflix-Skunkworks/oci-agent --skill writing-specs -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/writing-specs, .gemini/skills/writing-specs, .github/skills/writing-specs and .opencode/skills/writing-specs in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Writing Specs is instructions for the agent only.
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.
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.
Writing Specs is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 364 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 1.5k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Writing Specs: Jupyter Notebook (microsoft/ai-agents-for-beginners, 77k stars), Notebook For Experiment (JetBrains/intellij-community, 21k stars), Jupyter To Marimo (ericmjl/llamabot, 183 stars) and Nbreview (awdeorio/dotfiles, 102 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
Netflix-Skunkworks (a GitHub organization) maintains it in Netflix-Skunkworks/oci-agent, which has 144 GitHub stars. The repository holds 4 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on August 15, 2026.
