skill-sync

Instructions for keeping skill metadata synchronized with the Auto-invoke sections of AGENTS.md files. These sections tell coding agents when to use particular skills.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after changing skill scope or automatic-invocation metadata, or when regenerating the relevant AGENTS.md tables with the provided sync script.
Why use it?
It prevents the metadata and the agent instructions from drifting apart after a skill is created or changed.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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-sync 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (assets/sync_test.sh, assets/sync.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 122 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Purpose

Keeps AGENTS.md Auto-invoke sections in sync with skill metadata. When you create or modify a skill, run the sync script to automatically update all affected AGENTS.md files.

Required Skill Metadata

Each skill that should appear in Auto-invoke sections needs these fields in metadata.

auto_invoke can be either a single string or a list of actions:

metadata:
  author: prowler-cloud
  version: "1.0"
  scope: [ui]                                    # Which AGENTS.md: ui, api, sdk, root

  # Option A: single action
  auto_invoke: "Creating/modifying components"

  # Option B: multiple actions
  # auto_invoke:
  #   - "Creating/modifying components"
  #   - "Refactoring component folder placement"

Scope Values

Scope Updates
root AGENTS.md (repo root)
ui ui/AGENTS.md
api api/AGENTS.md
sdk prowler/AGENTS.md
mcp_server mcp_server/AGENTS.md

Skills can have multiple scopes: scope: [ui, api]


Usage

After Creating/Modifying a Skill

./skills/skill-sync/assets/sync.sh

What It Does

  1. Reads all skills/*/SKILL.md files
  2. Extracts metadata.scope and metadata.auto_invoke
  3. Generates Auto-invoke tables for each AGENTS.md
  4. Updates the ### Auto-invoke Skills section in each file

Example

Given this skill metadata:

# skills/prowler-ui/SKILL.md
metadata:
  author: prowler-cloud
  version: "1.0"
  scope: [ui]
  auto_invoke: "Creating/modifying React components"

The sync script generates in ui/AGENTS.md:

### Auto-invoke Skills

When performing these actions, ALWAYS invoke the corresponding skill FIRST:

| Action | Skill |
|--------|-------|
| Creating/modifying React components | `prowler-ui` |

Commands

# Sync all AGENTS.md files
./skills/skill-sync/assets/sync.sh

# Dry run (show what would change)
./skills/skill-sync/assets/sync.sh --dry-run

# Sync specific scope only
./skills/skill-sync/assets/sync.sh --scope ui

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

skill-sync is a skill published in the GitHub repository prowler-cloud/prowler (14,736 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 58 tokens to every session and 783 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
