What it does
Project Context is an agent skill from shinpr/ai-coding-project-boilerplate. Marks project context as unconfigured until domain constraints, repository quality standards, phase, conventions, and external-resource access are recorded. Use when project-specific context has not yet been configured.
Its SKILL.md is about 160 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including reference files (for example `references/external-resources-api.md`, `references/external-resources-backend.md` and `references/external-resources-frontend.md`).
It sits in Agent Workflows. The repository describes itself as: Agentic coding TypeScript boilerplate for Claude Code: sub-agent workflows with built-in quality checks and context engineering. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Project-specific context has not yet been configured
Example prompts
- “Use the project-context skill to mark project context as unconfigured until domain constraints, repository quality standards, phase, conventions…”
- “/project-context”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 56913a2. 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
Project Context loads about 164 tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 57 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

Project Context
Status: Unconfigured.
Report that project context is unconfigured and direct the user to run /project-inject once to collect it. A configured body contains at least the ## Project Overview section. When the command is unavailable or cannot complete its hearing, report that project context is unknown and name the missing project decision instead of assuming one.

When should I use Project Context?
Project Context fits situations like: project-specific context has not yet been configured.
How do I install Project Context in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add shinpr/ai-coding-project-boilerplate --skill project-context -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills-en/project-context in shinpr/ai-coding-project-boilerplate) into .claude/skills/project-context in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Project Context in Codex?

Can I use Project Context in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add shinpr/ai-coding-project-boilerplate --skill project-context -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/project-context, .gemini/skills/project-context, .github/skills/project-context and .opencode/skills/project-context in your project.
What does Project Context need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Project Context is instructions for the agent only.
Does Project Context access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Project Context safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
What licence does Project Context use?
Project Context is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
How many tokens does Project Context use?
About 164 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 656 characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 5.9k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
