What it does

Spk Meta Skill Map is an agent skill from spec-kitty/spec-kitty. Discover the Spec Kitty 3.2.0 spk skill hierarchy, naming convention, legacy aliases, and the correct skill for a user intent.

Example prompts

  • “/spk-meta-skill-map”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e533131. 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 Meta Skill Map loads about 330 tokens when it runs, and up to ~995 if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 36 tokens; SKILL.md has 127 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~36
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~330
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~995

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.

spk-meta-skill-map

Use this skill when the user asks what skills exist, how spk-* names are organized, or which skill applies.

Naming Convention

Use spk-<family>-<action-or-topic>.

Legacy family means the pre-3.2.0 spec-kitty-* compatibility skills that remain alongside the newer spk-* hierarchy.

Families:

  • spk-start-*: onboarding and orientation.
  • spk-mission-*: authoring mission artifacts before runtime execution.
  • spk-run-*: runtime advancement, program orchestration, implementation, review, and blockers.
  • spk-gate-*: accept, merge, mission review, and retrospectives.
  • spk-admin-*: setup, configuration, upgrades.
  • spk-doctrine-*: charter, glossary, SPDD, profiles, visual communication, and bulk-edit policy.
  • spk-integrate-*: APIs, CI, external automation.
  • spk-meta-*: skill discovery and authoring.

Full 3.2.0 Pack

Use the reference map for the complete inventory: references/spk-skill-map.md.

Rule

Choose the narrowest matching skill. If multiple skills match, start at the earliest lifecycle family: start, mission, run, gate, admin/team, doctrine, integrate, meta.
