gentle-ai-skill-registry

gentle-ai-skill-registry is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Gentleman-Programming/gentle-pi. It costs 31 tokens per session (527 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of skill-registry, MIT.

A registry-maintenance workflow that creates an index of available coding skills by their trigger and file path.

In plain words
What is it for?
It scans skill locations, resolves duplicates, writes .atl/skill-registry.md, and supplies matching skill paths for delegated work.
Why use it?
It helps agents find the right skill after skills are installed, removed, moved, or renamed, without replacing the original skill instructions.

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

gentle-ai-skill-registry 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 7d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

94% identical to skill-registry — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 52 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Activation Contract

Use this skill after installing, removing, creating, moving, or renaming skills, or when a delegator needs a fresh skill index.

Hard Rules

  • The registry is an index, not a compiler or summary. SKILL.md remains the source of truth.
  • Do not generate or inject compact rules by default; preserve author intent by passing exact skill paths to subagents.
  • Always write .atl/skill-registry.md regardless of SDD persistence mode.
  • Save the registry to Engram as topic_key: skill-registry when available, with capture_prompt: false.
  • Skip sdd-*, _shared, and skill-registry; deduplicate by skill name, preferring project-level skills over user-level skills.
  • Add .atl/ to .gitignore when possible unless explicitly disabled.

Decision Gates

Situation Action
Same skill exists globally and in project Keep the project-level skill
Same skill exists in multiple global locations Keep the first source in scan order
No skills found Write an empty registry so agents stop searching blindly
Agent will delegate work Select matching registry rows and pass their SKILL.md paths

Execution Steps

  1. Scan all known user and project skill directories for */SKILL.md.
  2. Read frontmatter only as needed to extract name and description trigger text.
  3. Render .atl/skill-registry.md with scanned sources, registry contract, skill name, trigger/description, scope, and exact path.
  4. Persist to Engram when available using title: skill-registry, topic_key: skill-registry, type: config, and capture_prompt: false.
  5. Return the registry path, skill count, cache status, and whether Engram was updated.

Output Contract

Return:

  • Project name and .atl/skill-registry.md path.
  • Number of indexed skills.
  • Whether the cache was hit or regenerated.
  • Any skipped or duplicate skills when relevant.

References

  • docs/skill-style-guide.md — how skills should be authored before indexing.
  • skills/_shared/skill-resolver.md — how delegators use the index.

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.
