What it does

Maintain Agent Docs is an agent skill from videojs/video.js. Maintain repository agent guidance. Use for AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md compatibility, skill drift, duplicated instructions, or context budgets.

Its SKILL.md is about 480 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 Agent Workflows, covering Agent instruction files and Context engineering. The repository describes itself as: Video.js v10 - open source media player framework for HTML and React.

When your agent uses it

  • CLAUDE.md compatibility
  • Duplicated instructions
  • Context budgets

Example prompts

  • “/maintain-agent-docs”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify the repeated failure or new fact and the executable source that proves it.
  2. Search existing agent docs and skills for overlap or contradiction.
  3. Prefer updating a source pointer or validator over copying code, schemas, commands, or examples.
  4. Remove obsolete guidance in the same change.
  5. Keep skill frontmatter portable: name and a precise description only.
  6. Run pnpm check:workspace and review the reported context budgets.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 50f59a2. 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:

    • pnpm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pnpm, 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

Maintain Agent Docs loads about 479 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 39 tokens; SKILL.md has 238 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~39
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~479

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 238 words (~479 tokens).

“Keep agent guidance as a routing and correction layer over project sources, not a second documentation system.”
