What it does

Odyssey Skill is an agent skill from yaosiyuuu6/odyssey-skill. Use when a user describes a life decision situation or asks for real decision reference cases or podcast recommendations around choices such as quitting, changing careers, studying abroad, entrepreneurship, city selection, or major life forks.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 31 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/data-contract.md` and `references/response-style.md`).

The repository describes itself as: 真实人生决策筛选器,当你面对人生重大决策时,帮你找到最符合你当下情况的播客/B站视频.

Workflow steps

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

  1. If the user has not described a situation yet, open like a friend: “最近有什么选择难到你了吗?”
  2. When the user shares a dilemma, respond to the real tension in their words and ask at most one light question that helps locate the real…
  3. If the user keeps expressing their situation, keep listening and ask one gentle follow-up. Do not interrupt with search results.
  4. Before showing story fragments, if the user has not shared enough background to search precisely, ask one light optional background…
  5. If the user gives a short answer, shows little need to continue expressing, or asks to see cases, move into search.
  6. Before searching, frame it as looking at stories together: “好,那我先往‘想停下来,但现实压力还在’的方向找几个真实故事。我们不急着下结论,先一起看看别人是怎么走过这段的。”
  7. Search the cloud index with scripts/search_odyssey.py --json to inspect a broad candidate pool before choosing what to show. The script…
  8. First offer a few short story fragments and let the user choose which one to continue with. Default to 3 different cases, but show fewer…
  9. When expanding a story, tell what they faced, why it was uncertain, what they tried, what it cost, what happened later, and where to…
  10. End by pointing back to the full source rather than forcing the user to summarize themselves.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ccda0cc. 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 13 files in scripts/ (Python, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    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

Odyssey Skill loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 64 tokens; SKILL.md has 646 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~64
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.2k

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 646 words (~1,233 tokens).
