What it does

Code Writer is an agent skill from WildGums/Orc.LicenseManager. Write production C code following repository coding standards and architecture. Triggers: "write code", "implement feature", "add feature", "fix bug", "create class", "add method", "implement interface", "refactor", "add property", "extend functionality", any GitHub issue number referencing a feature or bug fix.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.3k 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 Debugging and Code quality. It works with C# and GitHub.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Debugging
  • Tasks that involve Code quality

Example prompts

  • “write code”
  • “implement feature”
  • “add feature”
  • “/code-writer”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Understand the requirement
  2. Plan the implementation
  3. Implement the code
  4. Write or update tests
  5. Validate changes
  6. Create a pull request

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0bc0efa. 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:

    • dotnet

    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

Code Writer loads about 2.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 912 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~82
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.3k

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 912 words (~2,295 tokens).

“Implement high-quality, maintainable production C# code that fully respects the project's coding standards, architecture, and ABI stability requirements.”
