What it does
Yao Meta Skill is an agent skill from yaojingang/yao-meta-skill. Create, improve, or evaluate an existing skill from workflows, prompts, SOPs, scripts. Use for migration/release/package, routing, evals/tests, install/trust checks, 优化已有 skill, 补 trigger 评测. Exclude summary/translation/docs, brainstorming, one-off prompts, copy-only edits, outline-only requests.
Its SKILL.md is about 770 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 827 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `.github/workflows/test.yml`, `.previews/yao-meta-skill-v2-report-demo/geo-content-brief-skill/README.md` and `.previews/yao-meta-skill-v2-report-demo/geo-content-brief-skill/SKILL.example.md`).
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering LLM evaluation, Brainstorming and Operations and SOPs. The repository describes itself as: YAO = Yielding AI Outcomes. A rigorous engineering, evaluation, governance, and portability system for reusable agent skills. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Migration/release/package
- Install/trust checks
Example prompts
- “/yao-meta-skill”
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Require repeated use + reusable output contract; skip one-offs.
- Lock target path + identity before writes; self-edits require --self.
- Capture job, output, exclusions, constraints, standards, mode.
- Scan 3-5 useful external/user/local references.
- Write description early; route edits need trigger_eval.py; release gates follow risk.
- Add deeper profiles only when earned.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f5d8f68. 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/, which the agent can run.
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
Yao Meta Skill loads about 768 tokens when it runs, and up to ~33k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 78 tokens; SKILL.md has 246 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.

Governed Package Boundary
Governed/file-backed packages: label input_files a file-backed fixture; include owner, review cadence, output contract, rollback boundary; require trust report and reports/output_quality_scorecard.md; mark unavailable telemetry/approvals/metrics/benchmarks as missing evidence; never fabricate evidence.
Preserve labels literally when they apply: file-backed fixture, input_files, output contract, rollback boundary, trust report, reports/output_quality_scorecard.md, missing evidence.
First-Turn Style
- Infer non-core gaps; ask one core-fork question per round, max two, then use recorded preferred inference.
- In Chinese, sound soft and companion-like; use Intent Dialogue.
Output Contract
Builds: SKILL.md, aligned interface, justified assets, boundary/gate summary. Audits: findings + fixes; edit only when asked. No-skill: no files.

Primary: Method, Artifact Design, Systems, Governance, SkillOps.
