essays-in-persuasion-keynesApply Keynes policy reasoning. An agent skill from simbajigege/book2skills.
Essays In Persuasion Keynes is an agent skill from simbajigege/book2skills. Apply Keynes policy reasoning. Trigger on: "will austerity work?", "inflation or deflation?", "analyze this economic crisis".
Its SKILL.md is about 750 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 11 other files (for example `README.md`, `quotes/demand-confidence-quotes.md` and `quotes/policy-diagnosis-quotes.md`).
The repository describes itself as: Create best skills based on best books.
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e5ba66c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
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.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Essays In Persuasion Keynes loads about 750 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 280 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.
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.
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 280 words (~750 tokens).
“Apply John Maynard Keynes's policy reasoning from Essays in Persuasion to contemporary macroeconomic questions. This is a modular skill because users may ask separate, independently triggered questions about debt capacity, inflation versus deflation, fixed exchange-rate traps, demand shortfalls, or economic…”
