Review a FlyDSL release candidate against published releases for API stability violations, including export paths, signatures, result interfaces, semantics, and deprecation windows.

  • Release compatibility reviews and breaking-change checks
  • SKILL.md covers Establish the comparison, Build the protected interface…, Review behavior and retirement… and Validate and report

What it does

Release API Check is an agent skill from ROCm/FlyDSL. Review a FlyDSL release candidate against published releases for API stability violations, including export paths, signatures, result interfaces, semantics, and deprecation windows. Use for release compatibility reviews and breaking-change checks.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k 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 Development. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: FlyDSL is the Python front‑end of the project: a Flexible Layout Python DSL for expressing tiling, partitioning, data movement, and kernel structure at a high level.

When your agent uses it

  • Release compatibility reviews and breaking-change checks

Example prompts

  • “/release-api-check”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1941889. 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:

    • git
    • python3

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, 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 no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

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

Context cost

Release API Check loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,087 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~66
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.2k

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 1,087 words (~2,154 tokens).

“Work in the FlyDSL repository and use docs/api_stability.md as the policy source. Produce a compatibility report with source locations and validation evidence. A review does not itself authorize tagging, publishing packages, or changing release status.”
