What it does

Release Windows is an agent skill from xD3I/PZ_Optimization. Build the release zip of the class overrides (same zip for Windows and Linux) and publish it with the install.sh / install.ps1 installers as GitHub release assets. Use when asked for a new Windows or Linux build, a release, a zip for the Windows test, or to update the release asset after a change under src/ or the installers.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It works with GitHub and Linux. The repository describes itself as: Project Zomboid Build 42 performance work: class overrides, harness, findings.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked for a new Windows
  • A zip for the Windows test
  • Update the release asset after a change under src/

Example prompts

  • “/release-windows”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

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

  1. scripts/build.sh (javac against the local jar, build/classes/) and scripts/test.sh.
  2. Zips the flat content of build/classes/ (class files, media/lua/...,
  3. With --publish: tags the full SHA of HEAD as b--- (UTC; GitHub lists releases by creation day, then by tag name, so the time keeps them in…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 84b483c. 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:

    • git
    • ffmpeg

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • steamcommunity.com

    Also links to:

    • discord.gg

    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

Release Windows loads about 3.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,594 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~86
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.1k

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

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,594 words (~3,080 tokens).
