What it does

Gdpr Data Handling is an agent skill from wshobson/agents. Implement GDPR-compliant data handling with consent management, data subject rights, and privacy by design. Use when building systems that process EU personal data, implementing privacy controls, or conducting GDPR compliance reviews.

Its SKILL.md is about 660 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/details.md`).

It sits in Legal & Compliance, covering Privacy and GDPR. The repository describes itself as: Multi-harness agentic plugin marketplace for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot, Google Antigravity, and Pi. The licence is MIT.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 46891e7. 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.
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

Gdpr Data Handling loads about 657 tokens when it runs, and up to ~5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 183 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~63
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~657
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them: ~5k

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.

Core Concepts

1. Personal Data Categories

Category	Examples	Protection Level
Basic	Name, email, phone	Standard
Sensitive (Art. 9)	Health, religion, ethnicity	Explicit consent
Criminal (Art. 10)	Convictions, offenses	Official authority
Children's	Under 16 data	Parental consent

2. Legal Bases for Processing

Article 6 - Lawful Bases:
├── Consent: Freely given, specific, informed
├── Contract: Necessary for contract performance
├── Legal Obligation: Required by law
├── Vital Interests: Protecting someone's life
├── Public Interest: Official functions
└── Legitimate Interest: Balanced against rights

3. Data Subject Rights

Right to Access (Art. 15)      ─┐
Right to Rectification (Art. 16) │
Right to Erasure (Art. 17)       │ Must respond
Right to Restrict (Art. 18)      │ within 1 month
Right to Portability (Art. 20)   │
Right to Object (Art. 21)       ─┘

Best Practices

Do's

Minimize data collection - Only collect what's needed
Document everything - Processing activities, legal bases
Encrypt PII - At rest and in transit
Implement access controls - Need-to-know basis
Regular audits - Verify compliance continuously

Don'ts

Don't pre-check consent boxes - Must be opt-in
Don't bundle consent - Separate purposes separately
Don't retain indefinitely - Define and enforce retention
Don't ignore DSARs - 30-day response required
Don't transfer without safeguards - SCCs or adequacy decisions
