What it does

Using Open Exam Skills is an agent skill from serenakeyitan/open-exam-skills. Route requests to the right Open Exam Skills before responding.

Its SKILL.md is about 270 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 Education. The repository describes itself as: A high-quality collection of study skills built for high school and college students, teachers, and TAs. Use it directly in Kael.im for free without installing skills.

When your agent uses it

  • Education work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/using-open-exam-skills”

Workflow steps

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

  1. citation-check: trust, claims, numbers, slide bullets, summaries with facts
  2. mindmap: structure, outline, relationships, concept maps
  3. flashcards: memorization, drilling, spaced repetition
  4. quiz: testing, exam simulation, grading

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit fe13bb2. 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

Using Open Exam Skills loads about 269 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 22 tokens; SKILL.md has 132 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~22
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~269

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
