What it does

Weft Node Authoring is an agent skill from WeaveMindAI/weft. Read before dispatching a node-smith (the brief and the review) and when an expert writes a node by hand: the node authoring manual, the test tiers, and the shapes half-done work takes. The node-smith reads this same file as its manual.

Its SKILL.md is about 16k 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 programming language for AI orchestrations.

Example prompts

  • “/weft-node-authoring”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Design [the contract]. The node-smith implements it and never invents it. One job per node, and the permissions it needs are fixed by that…
  2. Dispatch one node-smith per package. [the brief] is [the contract] plus the project context the node-smith cannot see (what [stage] this…
  3. Run [the review] on [the report] against the checklist below. A report that fails goes back as a redispatch whose brief carries the…
  4. Wire it. With the node green and in the catalog, read its metadata.json once more as delivered, and write the weft code.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6e28f31. 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 rust, json, javascript and toml).

    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

Weft Node Authoring loads about 16k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 64 tokens; SKILL.md has 8,957 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~64
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~16k

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 8,957 words (~16,191 tokens).

“Tangle reads the dispatch protocol and [the review] checklist. The node-smith subagent, and an expert taking the hand, read the manual that follows them.”
