What it does
Summarize Interview is an agent skill from Owl-Listener/designer-skills. Turn one interview transcript into themes, supporting quotes, and action items. Use immediately after a session. For synthesising many sessions at once, use affinity-diagram.
Its SKILL.md is about 350 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: Designer Skills Collection: agentic skills, commands, and plugins for design — from research to systems, UI, interaction, and delivery. The licence is MIT.
Example prompts
- “/summarize-interview”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Read the transcript carefully, noting key moments.
- Create a structured summary with
- Rate confidence: For each insight, note whether it was explicitly stated or inferred.
- Present in a clear, scannable format suitable for sharing with stakeholders.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a6930c. 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
Summarize Interview loads about 352 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 150 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
