What it does
No Workarounds is an agent skill from pedronauck/skills. Evaluate a proposed fix that suppresses errors, diagnostics, or symptoms. Use for suspected workarounds and unavoidable external defects; not as a mandatory stage for every bug fix.
Its SKILL.md is about 500 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/philosophical-foundations.md` and `references/workaround-catalog.md`).
It sits in Development, covering Debugging. The repository describes itself as: My personal favorite skills.
When your agent uses it
- Suspected workarounds and unavoidable external defects
- Not as a mandatory stage for every bug fix
Example prompts
- “/no-workarounds”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0422940. 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
No Workarounds loads about 498 tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 232 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.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 232 words (~498 tokens).
“Use this skill when a proposed repair suppresses a diagnostic or hides a failure instead of correcting it. Start from the evidence already collected; use systematic-debugging only when the cause remains unclear.”
