What it does

Management Talk is an agent skill from thananon/9arm-skills. Rewrite engineer-to-engineer content for engineering-org leadership (VPs, directors, PMs, release managers, execs in an engineering-savvy company) and shape it for the channel it is going to — JIRA comment, Slack post, async standup line, email, or meeting talking-points. Trigger when the user asks to write/rewrite for management / exec / VP / director / PM / release manager, asks for an "executive summary / leadership update / status update", says "make this less technical / less jargony", or asks for a slack /…

Its SKILL.md is about 3.2k 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 Productivity & Automation, covering Meeting notes and agendas and Summarization. It works with Jira and Slack.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to write/rewrite for management / exec / VP / director / PM / release manager
  • Asks for an executive summary / leadership update / status update
  • Says make this less technical / less jargony
  • Asks for a slack / email / standup / meeting version of work originally written engineer-to-engineer

Example prompts

  • “executive summary / leadership update / status update”
  • “make this less technical / less jargony”
  • “/management-talk”

Workflow steps

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

  1. A JIRA ticket key (e.g. JIRA-12345) → fetch via GET /rest/api/3/issue/?fields=summary,status,priority,assignee,comment plus any custom…
  2. Pasted technical text → use directly.
  3. The current conversation → if you (or the user) just produced engineering content and the user now says "now in slack" / "now for the VP,"…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a1fc303. 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

Management Talk loads about 3.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 154 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,752 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~154
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.2k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,752 words (~3,217 tokens).

“Same audience and translation rules as a written status report, but shaped for the channel — JIRA comment, Slack post, async standup, email, or meeting talking-points. The audience reads code names but not code. The channel decides the length, formatting…”
