example-skill

example-skill is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from PromptPartner/agentsmith. It costs 35 tokens per session (230 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A minimal example of how a reusable coding-agent skill can be structured. It shows a short description, a workflow, and notes about keeping supporting files beside the instructions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for creating a new skill, defining when it should load, documenting its steps, and recording reusable workflow guidance.
Why use it?
It gives skill authors a small starting template instead of requiring them to design the structure from scratch. The example itself does not provide a specialised coding capability.

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

example-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 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

Example Skill

This is a working but trivial skill, here to show the shape. Copy this folder, rename it, and rewrite the body with your real workflow.

When this fires

The agent loads this when the task matches the description above, or when you invoke it using the client's supported skill syntax. Keep the description precise — it's the only thing the agent matches on.

Steps

  1. State the goal in one line.
  2. Do the work, following the project's core/ rules (verify before done, no secrets, etc.).
  3. Report the outcome with evidence.

Notes

  • Put supporting files (scripts, references, longer instructions) next to this SKILL.md; they load only when referenced (progressive disclosure — keeps context lean).
  • Delete this example once you've added your own skills.
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.
