What it does

Deprecate API is an agent skill from remotion-dev/remotion, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Reference for how deprecation of public Remotion APIs is represented in TypeScript source and documentation. Use when adding, reviewing, or discussing a deprecation of a function, component, hook, type, prop, option, or other public API that remains available.

Its SKILL.md is about 530 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Video production. It works with Remotion and TypeScript. The repository describes itself as: 🎥 Make videos programmatically with React.

When your agent uses it

  • Discussing a deprecation of a function
  • Other public API that remains available

Example prompts

  • “/deprecate-api”

Workflow steps

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

  1. A JSDoc @deprecated annotation on the public TypeScript API.
  2. Strikethrough formatting on the API's documentation heading.
  3. An info admonition named Deprecated directly after that heading.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1e4c5de. 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 mdx and typescript).

    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:

    • remotion.dev

    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

Deprecate API loads about 529 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 69 tokens; SKILL.md has 210 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~69
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~529

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 210 words (~529 tokens).
