What it does

Dough Update is an agent skill from terryyin/lizard. Apply the latest released Open Dough guidance from this project's recorded source, or from a supplied repository URL on first install. Use when the user asks to update Open Dough or invokes dough-update.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files.

The repository describes itself as: A simple code complexity analyser without caring about the C/C++ header files or Java imports, supports most of the popular languages.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to update Open Dough
  • Invokes dough-update

Example prompts

  • “/dough-update”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Capture the target project's absolute path before fetching anything. Use this
  2. If the user asked to install or update a specific version, tag, or branch,
  3. Identify the running tool from the current host. Do not infer it from which
  4. Resolve the Open Dough source from the invoking root. If that updater

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d5228c1. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Dough Update loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,168 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~54
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.2k

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,168 words (~2,214 tokens).

“Install and update the latest numeric Open Dough release for Codex, Cursor, and Claude Code together. Codex and Cursor share .agents/skills/; Claude Code uses .claude/skills/. The running tool is only the entry context used to find the recorded source for…”
