What it does

Spk Charter Profile Load is an agent skill from spec-kitty/spec-kitty. Load a Spec Kitty agent profile on demand for interactive sessions, including identity, governance scope, boundaries, and initialization. Triggers: "act as the architect", "load the reviewer profile", "switch to researcher", "use the planner role", "adopt a profile".

Its SKILL.md is about 360 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/profile-load-mechanics.md`).

It sits in Security, covering Access reviews and audit trails. 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 Access reviews and audit trails

Example prompts

  • “act as the architect”
  • “load the reviewer profile”
  • “switch to researcher”
  • “/spk-charter-profile-load”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify the requested profile, action, and active Mission context.
  2. Resolve the profile through the CLI
  3. Load action-scoped governance
  4. Apply the resolved initialization declaration, specialization boundaries,
  5. Return to spk-run-next for Mission advancement.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d12146f. 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 (its code samples are bash).

    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 Charter Profile Load loads about 364 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 113 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~73
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~364
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.1k

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.

argument-hint
<profile-id>

spk-charter-profile-load

Use this skill when the agent needs a profile outside the runtime loop or the user asks to adopt a specific role.

Resolver-Backed Flow

  1. Identify the requested profile, action, and active Mission context.

  2. Resolve the profile through the CLI:

    bash
    spec-kitty agent profile show <profile-id>
  3. Load action-scoped governance:

    bash
    spec-kitty charter context --action <action> --json
  4. Apply the resolved initialization declaration, specialization boundaries, directive and tactic references, collaboration handoffs, and mode defaults.

  5. Return to spk-run-next for Mission advancement.

Do not substitute a raw .agent.yaml read for resolution. A narrowly scoped read-only-harness fallback is documented in the reference below.

For a one-shot governed request outside a Mission, use:

bash
spec-kitty dispatch "<request>" --profile <profile-id>
