extend-oss-skills-to-claude

extend-oss-skills-to-claude is a skill for Claude Code from urmzd/dotfiles. It costs 74 tokens per session (2,358 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Guidance for adding Claude Code features to skills that follow the open agentskills.io format. Claude Code is a coding assistant, while agentskills.io is a portable format for describing reusable agent instructions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to control when Claude invokes a skill, run subagents, insert changing context, substitute text values, override model or effort settings, and limit where the skill can be used.
Why use it?
It lets one skill keep its portable instructions while adding Claude-specific controls. This avoids mixing features that other coding assistants may not understand into the shared format.

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions subagents; positional $N argument.

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

extend-oss-skills-to-claude 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 11d 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 — 289 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Extend OSS Skills to Claude Code

Prerequisite: read create-oss-skill first. That skill owns the base agentskills.io format and shared reference material (description optimization, eval workflow). This skill contains only the Claude Code-specific deltas (invocation control, subagent execution, dynamic context injection, model/effort overrides, deployment scoping).

Take a standard agentskills.io skill and layer on Claude Code execution features. The base spec defines a portable file format; Claude Code turns it into an execution framework.

What the Standard Covers

The open standard defines: name (required), description (required), license, compatibility, metadata, allowed-tools (space-delimited). These fields work across all compatible agents (Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Goose, etc.). Start with create-oss-skill for the base format.

Claude Code Extended Frontmatter

These fields are Claude Code-specific. Other agents ignore them.

Field Type Default Purpose
argument-hint string none Autocomplete hint: [issue-number], [filename] [format]
disable-model-invocation bool false true = only the user can trigger via /name. Removes from agent context entirely.
user-invocable bool true false = hidden from / menu. Agent-only background knowledge.
model string session Override model when skill is active.
effort string session Override reasoning effort: low, medium, high, max.
context string none fork = run in isolated subagent context.
agent string general-purpose Subagent type when context: fork. Built-in: Explore, Plan, general-purpose. Custom: any .claude/agents/ definition.
hooks object none Lifecycle hooks scoped to this skill. See hooks docs.

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.
