What it does

Rencal is an agent skill from t4t5/rencal. Create and test renCal plugins that contribute themes or calendar providers. Use when someone wants to make, edit, or publish a renCal plugin; use the caldir skill for calendar events.

Its SKILL.md is about 330 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/providers.md` and `references/themes.md`).

It sits in Frontend & Design. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: A modern desktop calendar. Built for Omarchy. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Someone wants to make
  • Publish a renCal plugin
  • Use the caldir skill for calendar events

Example prompts

  • “/rencal”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4388156. 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

Rencal loads about 327 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 48 tokens; SKILL.md has 152 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~48
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~327
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.

renCal plugins

Help the user build a plugin in their own checkout. A plugin is a GitHub repository with a rencal-plugin.toml at its root. It can contribute CSS themes, calendar providers, or both.

Read the relevant guide before creating files:

Keep plugin source in the user's checkout. For live testing, add its absolute path or ~/ path to the plugins array in ~/.config/rencal/plugins.toml; renCal links local checkouts and reloads theme edits. Preserve any existing entries and other settings in that file. Avoid editing installed copies under ~/.local/share/rencal/plugins/.

Check that the manifest names existing files and uses a unique, lowercase <github-owner>.<name> ID. For a published plugin, the ID owner must match the GitHub repository owner. Test the local checkout in renCal before publishing. Only create a repository, push, publish a release, or change the user's plugin declarations when the request authorizes that action.
