What it does

Quick is an agent skill from notque/vexjoy-agent. Tracked lightweight execution with composable rigor flags: --trivial, --discuss, --research, --full. Covers zero-ceremony inline fixes (typo, spelling fix, small mistake in a single file, ≤3 edits) through contained multi-file changes.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/templates.md`).

It sits in Development. The repository describes itself as: VexJoy AI Agent with Jev Intelligent Routing - /do routes plain-English requests to the right specialist agent and gates the work with reviews, tests, and a learning loop. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Development work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/quick”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Grep, Glob, Skill, Task

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Resolve decisions and investigate
  2. Plan and assign an ID
  3. Execute and watch scope
  4. Commit and log

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5218674. 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:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Bash
    • Grep
    • Glob
    • Skill
    • Task

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git
    • python3
    • go
    • tsc

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Quick loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 60 tokens; SKILL.md has 872 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~60
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.6k

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.

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.

/quick

Make contained changes in one execution thread. Use /do for multiple components, architectural changes, or parallel work. Keep plans inline; do not create task_plan.md.

Flags

All flags default off. Combine discussion, research, and verification as needed.

FlagEffect
--trivialMechanical fix: at most 3 edits across at most 3 files; no displayed plan, task ID, or subagents.
--discussResolve independent ambiguities together before planning.
--interviewResolve dependent decisions one question at a time, with a recommendation.
--researchInvestigate unfamiliar code before planning.
--fullVerify the plan, then run affected tests, configured lint, and diff review.
--no-branchStay on the current branch if repository branch rules permit it.
--no-commitLeave edits uncommitted, including in trivial mode.

Deep References

WhenLoadContent

Setup

Read repository CLAUDE.md unless already loaded and current. Parse flags; the remaining text is the task. Follow existing authorization and repository constraints throughout.

Check the branch during setup. Never let --trivial or --no-branch bypass branch safety. For trivial work on main/master, create quick/<brief-description>; for standard work, create quick/<task-id>-<brief-kebab-description> after assigning the ID in step 2 and before editing, unless --no-branch is allowed. Preserve unrelated changes.

Trivial mode

Use for --trivial or a clearly mechanical one-line change identified by the router.

  1. Read the targets and check scope. Investigation or unfamiliar behavior requires /quick --research; more than 3 files, new package imports, or dependency-file changes require standard /quick. For ambiguity, ask one clarifying question; if unresolved, use /quick --discuss.
  2. Edit directly and count edits. If more than 3 are needed, preserve completed work and continue standard /quick. Explain the scope change and carry forward the original request and completed edits.
  3. Review the diff and run applicable repository checks. Stage only intended files with git add <specific-files> and commit using references/templates.md, unless --no-commit applies.
  4. Emit the trivial summary and stop. Report an omitted commit as skipped, never as successful.

Standard procedure

1. Resolve decisions and investigate

Use discussion for --discuss or material uncertainty about the requested change, approach, or acceptance criteria. Batch independent questions using the DISCUSS template. Wait for answers needed to proceed; do not ask again about decisions or actions already authorized.

For --research or unfamiliar code, read relevant source, tests, and configuration. Establish current behavior, where the change fits, and what could break. Summarize findings and their effect on the plan in 3–5 lines.

2. Plan and assign an ID

Use YYMMDD-xxx, with a Base36 sequence: 001 through 009, 00a through 00z, then 010.

bash
date_prefix=$(date +%y%m%d)

Increment today's highest sequence in root STATE.md, starting at 001 if absent. If corrupted, recover the sequence from git log entries matching Quick task YYMMDD-. Increment again on branch-name collision.

Display the inline plan from references/templates.md: intended edits, files, rationale, and estimated edit count. Create the branch under the setup rules. With --full, verify that the plan meets acceptance criteria before editing. Recommend --full for security, payments, or data migration.

Show full SKILL.md (381 more words)Show less
3. Execute and watch scope

Make the planned edits and track their count. Above 15 estimated edits, suggest /do. Warn at 10 actual edits and reassess at 15. These standard-mode thresholds are advisory; continue within established authorization when the work remains contained. Ask only when a scope decision is unresolved. Trivial mode's 3-edit limit remains strict.

For base verification, run an appropriate syntax/build check, such as python3 -m py_compile <files>, go build ./..., or tsc --noEmit, plus required repository checks.

With --full, run tests for affected packages/modules, configured lint on changed files, and git diff review for unintended changes, missing error handling, and broken imports. Run the full suite when required by the repository or requested by the user. Fix relevant failures before claiming completion; report unrelated blockers accurately.

4. Commit and log

Unless --no-commit, stage specific intended files with git add <specific-files>, use the conventional commit format from references/templates.md, and include Quick task <task-id> in the body. Verify with git log -1 --oneline.

Create or append to root STATE.md using the reference schema. Use tier trivial->quick after escalation; otherwise quick. Record skipped commits explicitly. Emit the completion summary with changes, checks, commit or skipped status, branch, flags, and log location. Continue any already-authorized delivery steps.

Examples

Base mode: /quick add --verbose flag to the CLI -- Generate ID 260322-001, plan 3 edits (flag definition, handler, help text), create branch quick/260322-001-add-verbose-flag, execute, commit, log.

With research: /quick --research fix the timeout bug in auth middleware -- Read auth middleware first, trace call path, then plan and execute.

Escalated from trivial: --trivial hit 3-edit limit across 5 files. Quick picks up with context, plans remaining edits, commits all changes, logs as tier trivial->quick.

Full rigor: /quick --full update payment amount rounding logic -- Plan edit, execute, run tests + lint + diff review, commit.

Error Handling

Can I use Quick 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 notque/vexjoy-agent --skill quick -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/quick, .gemini/skills/quick, .github/skills/quick and .opencode/skills/quick in your project.

What does Quick need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Quick needs the command-line tools its instructions call (git, python3, go and tsc). Our summary lists: Python 3. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Grep, Glob, Skill, Task.

Does Quick access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Quick safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (pre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: bash)), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Quick use?

Quick is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Quick use?

About 1.9k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 7.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 667 tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
