At a glance

Review a pull request's title, description, and scope against the repository's PR conventions.

  • Works in 3 steps: Product or area identified (warning) —… → Description explains the work (warning)… → Scope accuracy (warning) — path: "pr"
  • Tasks that involve Pull requests
  • SKILL.md covers Inputs, Security, Rules and Severities, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Conventions Check is an agent skill from try-works/role-model. Review a pull request's title, description, and scope against the repository's PR conventions.

Its SKILL.md is about 960 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 Development, covering Pull requests. The repository describes itself as: role-model is a protocol for assigning the right model for the right job. Use local and cloud AI together, or route between several cloud providers.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Pull requests

Example prompts

  • “s title, description, and scope against the repository”
  • “/conventions-check”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Product or area identified (warning) — path: "pr"
  2. Description explains the work (warning) — path: "pr"
  3. Scope accuracy (warning) — path: "pr"

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit de1c04a. 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 json).

    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

Conventions Check loads about 958 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 28 tokens; SKILL.md has 515 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~28
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~958

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 515 words (~958 tokens).

“You are checking a pull request for adherence to this repository's contribution conventions. Your job is to flag concrete violations — do not invent issues or second-guess the author's intent when the evidence is ambiguous.”
