What it does

Absinthe Schema is an agent skill from TheBushidoCollective/han. Use when designing GraphQL schemas with Absinthe. Covers type definitions, interfaces, unions, enums, and schema organization patterns.

Its SKILL.md is about 770 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 Backend & APIs, covering GraphQL. The repository describes itself as: A curated marketplace of Claude Code plugins that embody the principles of ethical and professional software development.

When your agent uses it

  • Designing GraphQL schemas with Absinthe
  • Tasks that involve GraphQL

Example prompts

  • “/absinthe-schema”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Organize types by domain - Group related types in separate modules
  2. Use non_null sparingly - Only for truly required fields
  3. Leverage interfaces - For shared fields across types
  4. Define input objects - For complex mutation arguments
  5. Use custom scalars - For dates, UUIDs, JSON, etc.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 19caa51. 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 (its code samples are elixir).

    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

Absinthe Schema loads about 774 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 38 tokens; SKILL.md has 99 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~38
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~774

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 99 words (~774 tokens).
