What it does

Reference Rfc is an agent skill from talkincode/toughradius. Look up and cite international protocol standards (RFC/IEEE) (TR-F021). Any change to RADIUS/EAP/accounting/CoA/IPv6 protocol behavior should first check docs/rfcs and cite the clause.

Its SKILL.md is about 700 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 Business, Finance & HR, covering Accounting and bookkeeping. The repository describes itself as: A powerful, open-source RADIUS server designed for ISPs, enterprise networks, and carriers. Supports standard RADIUS protocols, a full EAP / 802.1X authentication suite (EAP-TLS… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Accounting and bookkeeping

Example prompts

  • “/reference-rfc”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Confirm it is truly missing (ls docs/rfcs/ | grep ).
  2. Fetch the spec text from an authoritative source (IETF datatracker / rfc-editor).
  3. Save it per docs/rfcs/FILE-NAMING.md (e.g. rfcXXXX-.txt).
  4. Update the docs/rfcs/README.md index, noting the implemented or to-be-implemented feature ID.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 50907c9. 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

Reference Rfc loads about 695 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 50 tokens; SKILL.md has 247 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~50
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~695

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.

description
Look up and cite international protocol standards (RFC/IEEE) (TR-F021). Any change to RADIUS/EAP/accounting/CoA/IPv6 protocol behavior should first check docs/rfcs and cite the clause.

Skill: Look Up & Cite International Protocol Standards

Feature ID: TR-F021 (protocol material) | Scope: all protocol-related changes

Principle

Any change to RADIUS / EAP / accounting / CoA / IPv6 protocol behavior must cite the corresponding international standard clause (RFC / IEEE, etc.), preferring material already in the repo.

Check the local library first

The repo's docs/rfcs/ already holds 50+ RFCs (see docs/rfcs/README.md); common ones:

TopicFile
RADIUS auth / accountingrfc2865-radius-authentication.txt / rfc2866-radius-accounting.txt
RADIUS extensions / protocol extensionsrfc2869-radius-extensions.txt / rfc6929-protocol-extensions.txt
RADIUS carrying EAPrfc3579-radius-eap-support.txt
EAP framework / EAP-TLS / TTLS / TEAPrfc3748-eap.txt / rfc5216-eap-tls.txt / rfc5281-eap-ttls.txt / rfc7170-teap.txt
Fragmentationrfc7499-packet-fragmentation.txt
Dynamic authorization / CoArfc3576-dynamic-authorization.txt / rfc5176-coa-disconnect.txt
IPv6 / prefix delegationrfc3162-radius-ipv6.txt / rfc4818-ipv6-prefix-delegation.txt / rfc6911-ipv6-access-networks.txt
RadSec / RADIUS over TCPrfc6614-radsec.txt / rfc6613-radius-over-tcp.txt
Status-Server / implementation issuesrfc5997-status-server.txt / rfc5080-implementation-issues.txt

Search:

text
grep -rni "Message-Authenticator" docs/rfcs/
view docs/rfcs/rfc5216-eap-tls.txt

Backfill when missing locally

  1. Confirm it is truly missing (ls docs/rfcs/ | grep <number>).
  2. Fetch the spec text from an authoritative source (IETF datatracker / rfc-editor).
  3. Save it per docs/rfcs/FILE-NAMING.md (e.g. rfcXXXX-<slug>.txt).
  4. Update the docs/rfcs/README.md index, noting the implemented or to-be-implemented feature ID.

How to cite

  • Cite the clause in inline code comments explaining "why this implementation" (e.g. // per RFC 5216 section 2.1.5, fragment via EAP-TLS Length+More-Fragments).
  • List the RFC numbers and sections relied upon in the PR description.

Boundaries

  • Spec material does not replace tests; new material must state the implemented or to-be-implemented feature ID (see the TR-F021 boundary).
  • Do not upload copyright-restricted, non-redistributable, non-standard documents.

Acceptance

  • Protocol changes cite specific RFC clauses
  • New specs are saved per the naming convention and registered in the README
  • Behavioral differences carry inline comments stating the basis
