update-skill

update-skill is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from initlabsai/vibekit. It costs 58 tokens per session (928 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A maintenance skill for keeping VibeKit's built-in skills and their generated command-line copies aligned with the product.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding, reviewing, refreshing, or removing VibeKit skill content, source links, upstream versions, or related behavior guidance.
Why use it?
It prevents user guidance from describing behavior that the implementation does not provide and keeps source and installed copies consistent.

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

update-skill 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 4d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Update a VibeKit skill

Treat skills/ as product code. Keep each skill aligned with shipped behavior, current primary sources, and the CLI bundle that installs it into projects.

Start from current state

Before editing:

  1. Read the repository AGENTS.md, the affected skill, and only its relevant references.
  2. Inspect git status and preserve unrelated or user-authored changes.
  3. Read the implementation and tests for any product behavior the skill describes. Read docs/CONSTITUTION.md before a structural change.
  4. Load an available skill-creator skill for current format and authoring guidance.

Do not document a plan, pending API, or intended release as current behavior. If implementation and guidance disagree, determine which is wrong before editing either surface.

Choose the source map

Maintenance task Reference
Shape descriptions, routing, progressive disclosure, references, and validation Skill design and review
Refresh AVM, PuyaTs, clients, tests, wallets, ARCs, security, migration, or x402 guidance Algorand sources
Refresh VibeKit CLI, tool, signing, deployment, plugin, MCP, or starter guidance VibeKit sources

Load only the source map needed for the change. The affected product skill remains the authoritative operational guidance; these references record where to verify it.

Editing rules

  • Keep the entrypoint compact: stable purpose, important boundaries, and a task-to-reference router. Move conditional detail into focused references.
  • Include guidance that changes an agent's decisions. Remove generic advice, copied manuals, stale compatibility paths, and duplicated API catalogs.
  • Prefer direct canonical documentation and GitHub source examples. Verify the exact branch and path before linking.
  • Keep build-on-algorand TypeScript-only. Exclude Python and AlgoKit CLI workflows, and delegate lifecycle, LocalNet, accounts, signing, deployment, and VibeKit operations to use-vibekit.
  • Preserve upstream license text and a reviewed commit SHA when retained material requires attribution.
  • Keep x402 and other fast-moving integrations short and link-driven.
  • Do not add eval artifacts unless the user asks for them. Add tests for repository behavior or meaningful skill invariants, not prose snapshots.

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.
