Unicli Operate

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Productivity & Automation work in your project

Example prompts

• “/unicli-operate”

Requirements

• Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash

Workflow steps

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

1. 1open -> navigate to URL
2. 2state -> inspect DOM, get [ref] numbers for interactive elements
3. 3interact -> click, type, select, keys using ref numbers
4. 4verify -> state again or get value to confirm
5. 5extract -> eval for structured data

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9316f93. 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

  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

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

  • news.ycombinator.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

Unicli Operate loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 164 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~40

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~1k

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

• NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md

  allowed-tools: Bash

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.
