personal

personal is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ntaffzii/Skill-Agents. It costs 46 tokens per session (499 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for keeping personal-only agent instructions separate from shared or public instructions. It covers private preferences, local setup details, and workflows that apply to one person or machine.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to classify new instructions, maintain private skill rules, document machine-specific workflows, and decide whether a personal rule is suitable for wider use.
Why use it?
It prevents personal context from making shared skills noisy, fragile, or overly specific. It also keeps secrets out of personal instruction files.

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

personal 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 6d 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.

Personal Skill Rules

Use this skill for instructions tied to one user, one machine, one vault, or one private workflow.

Purpose

skills/personal/ keeps personal context out of general-purpose skills. This prevents public skills from becoming noisy, brittle, or too specific to one setup.

What Belongs Here

  • Personal writing preferences
  • Local machine paths
  • Private project conventions
  • Personal Obsidian vault rules
  • Private API or service usage notes without secrets
  • Repeated workflows that only one user needs

What Does Not Belong Here

  • Secrets, tokens, passwords, or private keys
  • Generic engineering practices that belong in engineering/
  • Team-wide rules that deserve a stable shared skill
  • Large reference dumps that should live in a separate private document

Rules

  • Never store secrets in a personal skill.
  • Keep local paths and user preferences clearly scoped.
  • Do not let personal rules override explicit user instructions in a task.
  • Promote only a cleaned, non-private version into public buckets.

Workflow

  1. Classify the instruction

    • If it helps only this user, keep it personal.
    • If it helps a team or repo, consider a stable skill bucket.
    • If it is executable behavior, consider mcp-tools/.
  2. Keep it scoped

    • Write the smallest instruction that changes agent behavior.
    • Avoid turning preferences into universal rules.
    • Include examples only when they prevent ambiguity.
  3. Protect private context

    • Do not store secrets.
    • Do not paste sensitive personal data unless explicitly needed.
    • Prefer references to local files over copied private content.
  4. Review promotion

    • If a personal skill becomes broadly useful, promote a cleaned version to a public bucket.
    • Remove user-specific paths, names, secrets, and assumptions before promotion.

Verification

  • Confirm the skill does not contain secrets.
  • Confirm the instruction is personal rather than broadly reusable.
  • Confirm any local paths are intentional.

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.
