What it does

Rust Deps Visualizer is an agent skill from fjrevoredo/mini-diarium. Visualize Rust project dependencies as ASCII art. Triggers on: /deps-viz, dependency graph, show dependencies, visualize deps, 依赖图, 依赖可视化, 显示依赖

Its SKILL.md is about 600 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with Rust. The repository describes itself as: A local-only journal with serious encryption. Free, open source, and never touches the internet. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Dependency graph
Show dependencies

Example prompts

“/rust-deps-visualizer”

Requirements

Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Glob

Workflow steps

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

Check for Cargo.toml in current directory
Run cargo tree with specified options
Parse output and generate ASCII visualization
Optionally categorize by purpose (runtime, dev, build)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 75c1286. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
- Bash
- Read
- Glob
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- cargo
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

Rust Deps Visualizer loads about 603 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 41 tokens; SKILL.md has 119 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~41
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~603

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
```
allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Glob
```

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.
