At a glance

A test skill that responds to the magic word "alakazam" with a specific phrase

  • Works in 4 steps: The plugin was fetched correctly from… → The skill was loaded and merged into the… → The skill triggers are working properly → …
  • SKILL.md covers Instructions, Purpose and Example
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Magic Word is an agent skill from OpenHands/extensions. A test skill that responds to the magic word "alakazam" with a specific phrase

Its SKILL.md is about 230 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Public registry for OpenHands extensions. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “alakazam”
  • “/magic-word”

Workflow steps

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

  1. The plugin was fetched correctly from the repository
  2. The skill was loaded and merged into the agent context
  3. The skill triggers are working properly
  4. The skill instructions are being followed

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d008b81. 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

    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.

  • 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

Magic Word loads about 226 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 110 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~22
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~226

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.
