At a glance

A skill your agent uses when auditing robots meta tags. An agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist.

  • Auditing robots meta tags
  • SKILL.md covers Quick Reference, Check, Fix and Explain, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Tasks that involve Landing pages

What it does

Nosnippet is an agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist. Use when auditing robots meta tags. Applies to any important landing page, article, or product page that should appear with a description in search results.

Its SKILL.md is about 530 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/rule.md`).

It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Landing pages and On-page SEO. The repository describes itself as: 🗂 The essential checklist for modern web development, for humans and AI agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Auditing robots meta tags
  • Tasks that involve Landing pages
  • Tasks that involve On-page SEO

Example prompts

  • “/nosnippet”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e8d14d0. 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

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • frontendchecklist.io

    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

Nosnippet loads about 531 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 230 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~42
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~531
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.5k

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.

Avoid nosnippet on important pages

Pages with nosnippet display without a description in search results, reducing click-through rates and making it harder for users to understand whether the result is relevant to their query.

Quick Reference

  • nosnippet prevents Google from showing a description under your title in search results
  • Pages without snippets have significantly lower click-through rates
  • Use max-snippet:-1 to explicitly allow unlimited snippet length instead
  • Only use nosnippet deliberately on legally sensitive content

Check

Check the <meta name='robots'> tag and X-Robots-Tag response header for each important page. Flag any that contain 'nosnippet' or 'max-snippet:0'. Confirm these pages intentionally suppress snippets.

Fix

Remove 'nosnippet' from the <meta name='robots'> content attribute on important pages. Replace with 'max-snippet:-1' to explicitly allow full-length snippets, or simply omit snippet directives to use the default (allowed).

Explain

The nosnippet directive tells Google not to display a text snippet (description) for your page in search results. Without a snippet, users see only the page title and URL—this reduces click-through rates and is rarely the intended behaviour for content pages.

Code Review

Check all pages for <meta name='robots' content='...'> tags. Parse the content value and flag any that include 'nosnippet' or 'max-snippet:0'. Generate a report of affected URLs, their page type, and whether the nosnippet directive is intentional. Also check X-Robots-Tag response headers.
