What it does

Editorial Dot Cover is an agent skill from Pluviobyte/rnskill. Create deterministic editorial-style cover images with a warm paper-gray background, oversized black slab-serif/Chinese display typography, generous whitespace, and a dotted vector analysis icon. Use when the user asks for a “点阵编辑风封面”, “暖灰杂志风封面”, “Codex + Hyperframes 同款封面”, or wants to reproduce/adapt the specific minimal left-text/right-icon banner style. Produce editable SVG and a rendered PNG; do not use this skill for generic covers without this visual direction.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including scripts and assets (for example `agents/openai.yaml` and `scripts/render_cover.py`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Motion graphics, Social media graphics and Typography. It works with HeyGen. The repository describes itself as: 雪踏乌云的 AI Agent Skills 集合.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks for a 点阵编辑风封面
  • Codex + Hyperframes 同款封面
  • Wants to reproduce/adapt the specific minimal left-text/right-icon banner style
  • Generic covers without this visual direction

Example prompts

  • “点阵编辑风封面”
  • “暖灰杂志风封面”
  • “Codex + Hyperframes 同款封面”
  • “/editorial-dot-cover”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. Open the PNG at full size and at 25% scale.
  2. Confirm every Chinese character and punctuation mark matches the requested text.
  3. Confirm no glyph, dotted stroke, or magnifier handle is clipped.
  4. Confirm the headline is the first focal point and the icon remains secondary.
  5. Confirm background texture is visible only on inspection, not as obvious noise.
  6. Confirm the SVG remains editable and the PNG dimensions match the contract.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 83d1783. 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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3
    • codex

    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

Editorial Dot Cover loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 123 tokens; SKILL.md has 541 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~123
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

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

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 541 words (~1,087 tokens).

“Create a typographically accurate cover from vectors. Prefer the bundled renderer over image generation so Chinese text and punctuation remain exact.”
