What it does
Summarize File is an agent skill from pony-maggie/code_minions. Read a project file and produce a paragraph summary.
Its SKILL.md is about 190 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/run.py`).
It sits in Product & Project Management.
When your agent uses it
- Product & Project Management work in your project
Example prompts
- “/summarize-file”
Requirements
- Python 3
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ac75593. 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.
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 File loads about 188 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 17 tokens; SKILL.md has 62 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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 62 words (~188 tokens).
“Read a file from the project root and use the configured LLM to produce a one-paragraph summary of its contents. File reading is deterministic; the LLM is only responsible for the summary text.”
