What it does

Apexlang Generation is an agent skill from oracle/skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Public APEXlang router with deterministic local-context discovery and compact machine-readable contracts.

Its SKILL.md is about 3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1034 other files, including reference files and assets (for example `APEXlang Skills and Workflows.md`, `README.md` and `RELEASE-NOTES.md`).

The repository describes itself as: Oracle Skills is a curated, open-source collection of practical, installable skills for working with Oracle technologies. It provides developers, administrators, and AI agents…

Workflow steps

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

  1. assets/routing-catalog-main.json
  2. assets/routing-load-policy.json
  3. assets/rules.catalog.json
  4. assets/apexlang/domains-catalog.json
  5. assets/workspace-intelligence.json
  6. Run node tools/apexctl.mjs workspace probe.
  7. The temp-runtime context-resolution.json report under APEXLANG_OUTPUT_ROOT, when present

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6c57a52. 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:

    • node

    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

Apexlang Generation loads about 3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~194k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 31 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,473 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~31
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~194k

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

Its licence (UPL-1.0) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,473 words (~3,001 tokens).

“SKILL.md is the router. Resolve compact task context before prose.”
