At a glance

Phase 1 — check and update dependencies for scaffold-stark-2 itself (Starknet toolchain, Cairo/OpenZeppelin, starknet.js, Next.js frontend, security advisories).

  • Asked does anything need updating?

What it does

Stark Update Phase1 is an agent skill from Scaffold-Stark/scaffold-stark-2. Phase 1 — check and update dependencies for scaffold-stark-2 itself (Starknet toolchain, Cairo/OpenZeppelin, starknet.js, Next.js frontend, security advisories). Use when asked "does anything need updating?", before planning a release, or when returning to the project after time away. Phase 1 covers THIS repo only; sibling forks are Phase 2 and must not be touched here.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.2k 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 Next.js and OpenZeppelin. The repository describes itself as: Open source forkable Starknet dev stack. Codebase of Scaffold Stark.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked does anything need updating?
  • Before planning a release
  • Returning to the project after time away

Example prompts

  • “does anything need updating?”
  • “/stark-update-phase1”

Requirements

  • Docker

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ae1b689. 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:

    • gh
    • npm
    • yarn
    • jq

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use gh, npm and yarn, 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

Stark Update Phase1 loads about 3.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 98 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,484 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~98
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.2k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,484 words (~3,178 tokens).

“Answer one question: which dependencies in this repo need updating, and which should deliberately stay put?”
