What it does

Revyl CLI Dev Loop is an agent skill from RevylAI/revyl-cli. Generic CLI-first Revyl dev loop for hot reload, rebuild-loop, and device exploration.

Its SKILL.md is about 4.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

Example prompts

  • “/revyl-cli-dev-loop”

Requirements

  • A credential in REVYL_AUTH_BYPASS_TOKEN

Workflow steps

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

  1. Start from the detected app stack, then override only when detection is wrong.
  2. Keep the dev loop running while using separate short-lived revyl device commands for interaction.
  3. Prefer user-visible outcomes over implementation details.
  4. Stop local loop cleanly with Ctrl+C or revyl dev stop when done.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6bcef0d. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • jq
    • npx

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • REVYL_AUTH_BYPASS_TOKEN

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Revyl CLI Dev Loop loads about 4.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 26 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,851 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~26
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.1k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,851 words (~4,142 tokens).

“Use this skill when the user wants the generic Revyl CLI dev loop instead of MCP tool-by-tool orchestration. Start from the app's real stack, keep the session running, and use the device as the source of truth.”
