creator.skill: Skill for Codex

.agents/skills/goal-writer/SKILL.md

goal-writer is a skill for Codex from arctan303/creator.skill. It costs 66 tokens per session (493 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for turning a long or complex task into one bounded Goal that an agent can carry out with limited retries and clear stopping points. It defines what success looks like and how work can resume after an interruption.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write an agent-ready task with scope, exclusions, acceptance checks, retry limits, stop conditions, and recovery instructions. It is intended for work that spans multiple steps or requires ongoing execution.
Why use it?
It prevents vague instructions from becoming endless autonomous work or repeated reviews. It also exposes missing information, permissions, dependencies, and decisions before execution starts.

Skill for Codex

Written for Codex: agents/openai.yaml present. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is arctan303/creator.skill's own configuration. It tells Codex how to work on creator.skill itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything creator.skill configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

goal-writer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Goal 编写技能 (goal-writer)

Purpose

把长期任务写成 Agent 能自主执行、明确停止、失败后恢复并用证据验收的单一 Goal。

Trigger

  • 任务需要跨较长时间、多个工具调用或宿主自动执行。
  • 用户明确要求持续执行、托管、直到交付或生成 Goal。
  • 普通单轮任务不需要额外 Goal 文件。

Required context

  • 唯一目标、范围和非目标。
  • 当前状态、依赖、授权与可用资源。
  • 可观察完成标准和验收证据。
  • 最大重试/复审边界、中断条件和恢复入口。

Workflow

  1. 将愿望改写为单一、有限、可完成的目标。
  2. 写出可观察完成标准和可复现验收方式。
  3. 明确授权边界、最大重试次数、reviewer 收敛条件和外部依赖。
  4. 规定容量、网络、工具或宿主故障时的中断状态与恢复检查点。
  5. 检查 Goal 不会通过“永远继续”“不断生成 reviewer”等文字制造无限循环。

Output

  • 可直接发送给 Agent 的 Goal 块。
  • 目标、范围/非目标、完成标准、验收方式。
  • 停止条件、失败条件、重试上限和恢复方式。
  • 需要用户先授权或决策的事项。

Stop or escalate

  • 目标包含互相依赖的多个大型结果:拆分后再输出。
  • 完成标准不可观察或依赖未确认信息:停止并指出缺口。
  • 用户要求无限重试、无限审查或规避容量/权限限制:改写为有界目标并明确说明。
  • 必须扩大外部权限才能执行:请求用户授权,不自行扩权。

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
