  • Changing log calls in a Common Lisp project that uses log4cl (the LOG package)
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, When to Use, Prefer log:info over format t and First argument is a format…, plus 3 more sections

What it does

Logging With Log4cl is an agent skill from ultralisp/ultralisp. Use when adding or changing log calls in a Common Lisp project that uses log4cl (the LOG package), when compilation fails with "Package LOG does not exist" in an ASDF package-inferred system, or when a log:info call with a path or tilde crashes or garbles at runtime.

Its SKILL.md is about 830 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. The repository describes itself as: The software behind a Ultralisp.org Common Lisp repository.

When your agent uses it

  • Changing log calls in a Common Lisp project that uses log4cl (the LOG package)
  • Compilation fails with Package LOG does not exist in an ASDF package-inferred system
  • A log:info call with a path
  • Garbles at runtime

Example prompts

  • “Package LOG does not exist”
  • “/logging-with-log4cl”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3439788. 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 lisp).

    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

Logging With Log4cl loads about 832 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 72 tokens; SKILL.md has 326 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~72
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~832

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 326 words (~832 tokens).

“log4cl exposes the LOG package (log:info, log:error, log:debug, …). These macros are cl:format-based: the first argument is a format control string and any further arguments are format args.”
