What it does
Taxonomy Builder is an agent skill from WILLOSCAR/research-units-pipeline-skills. Build a 2+ level taxonomy (outline/taxonomy.yml) from a core paper set and scope constraints, with short descriptions per node.
Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 18 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `assets/domain_packs/embodied_ai.yaml`, `assets/domain_packs/gen_image.yaml` and `assets/domain_packs/llm_agents.yaml`).
The repository describes itself as: Research pipelines as semantic execution units: each skill declares inputs/outputs, acceptance criteria, and guardrails. Evidence-first methodology prevents hollow writing…
Example prompts
- “/taxonomy-builder”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- references/overview.md
- references/taxonomy_principles.md
- If a domain pack applies, read its references/domain_pack_.md and assets/domain_packs/.yaml
- Otherwise read references/archetypes_generic.md
- Calibrate naming/description quality with references/examples_good.md and references/examples_bad.md
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c92912a. 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
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
uv
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use uv, 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
Taxonomy Builder loads about 1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 37 tokens; SKILL.md has 404 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 404 words (~1,007 tokens).
