  • Tasks that involve Game development

Example prompts

  • “/header-api-review”

Workflow steps

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

  1. @function / @struct / @enum — declaration kind; value is the symbol name
  2. @category — groups symbol in docs (e.g. graphics, audio, input, allocator, sprite)
  3. @brief — one-line summary
  4. @param — one entry per parameter (omit if none)
  5. @return — return value description (omit for void)
  6. @remarks — extended notes, caveats, usage details (optional)
  7. @example — code example with > title (optional)
  8. @related — space-separated list of related symbols (highly recommended)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 96e6034. 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 (its code samples are c).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • randygaul.github.io

    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

Header API Review loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 35 tokens; SKILL.md has 478 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~35
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 478 words (~1,875 tokens).
