What it does

Fantasia Yagni is an agent skill from vishiri/fantasia-archive. YAGNI and minimal diffs inside Fantasia mandatory structure: reuse ladder, no unrequested features or deps, shortest change that passes gates. Apply when scoping work, reviewing bloat, or choosing reuse vs greenfield.

Its SKILL.md is about 470 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: A world-builder's best friend! The licence is GPL-3.0.

Example prompts

  • “/fantasia-yagni”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Need build at all?
  2. Already in codebase?
  3. Stdlib / platform?
  4. Installed package.json dep?
  5. Minimum inside conventions — shortest diff passing dev scoped gate (dev-scoped-verify.mdc); full yarn testbatch:verify at commit/final…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 26d4648. 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:

    • yarn

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

  • Network

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

Fantasia Yagni loads about 474 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 149 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~58
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~474

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.

YAGNI and minimal diffs inside Fantasia mandatory structure: reuse ladder, no unrequested features or deps, shortest change that passes gates. Apply when scoping work, reviewing bloat, or choosing reuse vs greenfield.

YAGNI — implementation discipline

When to follow

  • New feature, refactor, or dependency choice
  • User request sounds heavy — check reuse first
  • Diff review: duplicate util, speculative abstraction, parallel pattern

Always-on rule: yagni.mdc. Precedence: other .cursor/rules/* and fantasia-* skills win on structure, tests, i18n, gates.

Ladder (summary)

  1. Need build at all?
  2. Already in codebase?
  3. Stdlib / platform?
  4. Installed package.json dep?
  5. Minimum inside conventions — shortest diff passing dev scoped gate (dev-scoped-verify.mdc); full yarn testbatch:verify at commit/final cleanup

Trace real flow before picking rung. Grep callers, then Read. Mandatory two-level, types/, Vitest/Playwright/Storybook, neverthrow, line caps — not skippable for brevity.

Orthogonal to caveman

LayerRule / skillJob
Repliescaveman-default.mdc, .agents/skills/caveman/Terse agent prose
Codeyagni.mdcMinimal correct implementation

Both can stay on. YAGNI does not replace caveman or cavemem hooks.
