What it does

Update Stars is an agent skill from remotion-dev/remotion, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Update Remotion homepage GitHub star counts. Use when asked to refresh the displayed GitHub star count and push the change to main.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to refresh the displayed GitHub star count and push the change to main
  • Tasks that involve Video production

Example prompts

  • “/update-stars”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4d2a66f. 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.

    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

Update Stars loads about 129 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 36 tokens; SKILL.md has 27 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~36
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~129

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
