What it does

Clarify Docs is an agent skill from serpro69/claude-toolbox. TRIGGER when: asked to clarify or improve the explanation in existing local human documentation or a PR-description draft, including a PR URL or pasted body. Grounds edits in requirements and source while preserving technical meaning. Not for code, config, generic response brevity, or agent instructions. Explicit instruction or SKILL.md targets receive a /kk:implement suggestion without edits or automatic handoff.

Its SKILL.md is about 910 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `shared-document-clarity.md`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Agent instruction files and Pull requests. The repository describes itself as: Minimal by design, explicitly multi-lang, production-ready and battle-tested collection of configs and plugins for your Claude Code agentic development workflows: mcp, configs…

When your agent uses it

  • : asked to clarify
  • Improve the explanation in existing local human documentation
  • A PR-description draft
  • Including a PR URL

Example prompts

  • “/clarify-docs”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Load shared-document-clarity.md in full.
  2. Resolve the selected artifacts, reader, purpose and destination from the request
  3. Apply the shared procedure in order: understand the relevant work, establish
  4. Report changed paths and material unresolved gaps briefly. If no edit was needed,

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c2d28c9. 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

Clarify Docs loads about 910 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 108 tokens; SKILL.md has 429 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~108
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~910

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 429 words (~910 tokens).

“Improve an existing document so its intended reader can understand the underlying work. Produce a local edit; success depends on comprehension and fidelity, with no document-length target.”
