At a glance

Fetches Zig language and standard library documentation via CLI.

  • Documents & Office work in your project
  • SKILL.md covers Instructions, Quick Reference, Documentation Sources and Common Module Paths, plus 4 more sections
  • Calls curl, pandoc and jq; reaches raw.githubusercontent.com and ziglang.org

What it does

Zig Docs is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Fetches Zig language and standard library documentation via CLI. Activates when needing Zig API details, std lib function signatures, or language reference content that isn't covered in zig-best-practices.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `skill-report.json`).

It sits in Documents & Office. It works with GitHub, Pandoc and JavaScript. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • Documents & Office work in your project

Example prompts

  • “Use the zig-docs skill to fetch Zig language and standard library documentation via CLI”
  • “/zig-docs”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4ac52da. 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:

    • curl
    • pandoc
    • jq

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • raw.githubusercontent.com
    • ziglang.org
    • zig.guide
    • api.github.com

    Also links to:

    • github.com

    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

Zig Docs loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 247 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~54
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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 247 words (~1,262 tokens).

“Standard library modules are self-documenting. Fetch source directly:”
