What it does
Pre Flight Check is an agent skill from pskoett/pskoett-ai-skills. [Beta] Session-start scan that surfaces relevant learnings, recent errors, and eval status before work begins. Bridges the outer loop back into the inner loop by making accumulated knowledge visible at task start. Activated via SessionStart hook or manually before major tasks.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/pre-flight.sh`).
It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering LLM evaluation.

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5a836dc. 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/ (Shell), 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
Pre Flight Check loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 74 tokens; SKILL.md has 491 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 491 words (~1,356 tokens).
“Surfaces relevant accumulated knowledge at the start of a session. This is the bridge that connects the outer loop back into the inner loop — it makes prior learnings visible before the agent starts work.”
