kube-agents: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/skill-review/SKILL.md

skill-review is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from gke-labs/kube-agents. It costs 17 tokens per session (405 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A review procedure for agent skill definition files, which are instruction documents that tell coding agents how to perform tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Reviewing SKILL.md files for concise language, clear headings, imperative steps, consistent formatting, and complete technical requirements.
Why use it?
It removes unnecessary wording and inconsistent structure while checking that the instructions still preserve every required rule and check.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is gke-labs/kube-agents's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on kube-agents 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 kube-agents 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

skill-review 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 1mo 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

Task

Review agent skill definitions (SKILL.md files) to enforce maximum token efficiency, eliminate conversational fluff, and ensure standardized formatting without losing functional fidelity.

Checks

1. Frontmatter

  • Discovery: A harness loads name and description at session start and the body only once the description matches the request, so the description is what decides whether the skill is ever read. Require it to open with the action the user asks for and to name the thing acted on; flag one that describes the skill to a reader who already found it (Discovers and removes provisioned kube-agents GCP/GKE infrastructure never says "uninstall").
  • Loadability: Require frontmatter a YAML parser accepts. Flag an unquoted : in a description, and a value opening with {, [, * or &.

2. Structure & Headers

  • Standardization: Require a top-level # Task section and # Checks (or # Workflow) section.
  • Header Conciseness: Flag overly verbose headers (e.g., ## Focus Areas & Deterministic Checks). Require terse headers.

3. Prose & Verbosity

  • Persona Elimination: Flag conversational AI persona setups (e.g., "You are an expert..."). Replace with imperative tasks.
  • Conversational Fluff: Flag transitional phrases, unnecessary adverbs, and filler words.
  • Imperative Voice: Require bullet points to start with strong, punchy verbs (Flag..., Require..., Ensure...).

4. Formatting

  • Density: Ensure rules are condensed into terse, single-sentence commands where possible.
  • Fidelity: Ensure no deterministic rules, checks, or domain knowledge are lost during token optimization.

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.
