What it does

Spk Admin Git Workflow is an agent skill from spec-kitty/spec-kitty. Operate Spec Kitty git workflows, worktrees, safe commits, merge preflights, stale state checks, and recovery.

Its SKILL.md is about 210 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, covering Git workflow and Git worktrees. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Spec-Driven Development with organizational governance. Specs tell AI agents what to build; Charter governs how they build it. Git-native missions, enforceable workflows, and… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Git workflow
  • Tasks that involve Git worktrees

Example prompts

  • “/spk-admin-git-workflow”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Inspect the active mission, branch, worktree, and target branch.
  2. Let Spec Kitty-managed git operations run through the CLI when available.
  3. Perform manual git operations only when the workflow explicitly requires it.
  4. Preserve user changes and avoid destructive repair.
  5. Return to spk-gate-merge or spk-run-blocked-recovery after repair.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4cabb90. 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

Spk Admin Git Workflow loads about 207 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 33 tokens; SKILL.md has 87 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~33
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~207

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.
