Install

Each tab says whether it installs commit aecc583, the one we checked, or the latest version.

No tab for your agent? Use Any agent for OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Zed, Roo Code, Factory Droid, Junie, Amp and Antigravity, and Claude Code for Cline. Kiro needs the folder copied by hand.

Pinned to commit aecc583, the one we checked.

From your project's root folder:

tmp="$(mktemp -d)" &&
  git clone -q --depth 1 --filter=blob:none --no-checkout https://github.com/citrolabs/ego-lite.git "$tmp" &&
  git -C "$tmp" fetch -q --depth 1 origin aecc5831fc5a9ea01a078b632185992a3a7ac448 &&
  git -C "$tmp" sparse-checkout set -- package/ego-browser/skill-body &&
  git -C "$tmp" checkout -q aecc5831fc5a9ea01a078b632185992a3a7ac448 &&
  mkdir -p .claude/skills &&
  mkdir .claude/skills/skill-body &&
  cp -R "$tmp"/package/ego-browser/skill-body/. .claude/skills/skill-body/ &&
  rm -rf "$tmp"

If Claude Code was already running and this created the skills folder, run /reload-skills.

What it can touch

From the files and frontmatter at commit aecc583. This is how much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.

What it can touch: Shell, network or credentials

  • Runs shell commands

    Its instructions or files give the agent commands to run on your computer.

  • Reaches the network

    It sends or fetches data over the internet, for example with curl, an HTTP library or a package install.

Pattern check

Pattern check: nothing flagged · commit aecc583 · 27 Oct 2026

We checked every text file in this skill, at commit aecc583 on 27 Oct 2026, against 45 published patterns such as download-and-run commands, hidden text and credential access. We don't run the skill, we don't read the web pages it points to, and we can't judge everything its instructions might lead an agent to do. In published tests, pattern checks like this one missed most malicious skills. Read the skill before you install it — especially anything it asks you to download or run.

How the check worksReport an incorrect finding

Format check

Each agent reads SKILL.md a little differently. We check the file against each one's published rules; we don't run the skill in any agent.

  • Agent Skills specFails

    The open format from agentskills.io, held to what the strictest agents enforce, so one folder loads everywhere.

    • Error

      There is no name field. The spec requires one. N1

      Fix: Add name: skill-body.

    • Error

      There is no description. The spec requires one, and agents pick skills by it. D1

      Fix: Add description: with what the skill does and when to use it.

    • Warning

      Fields outside the spec: version and date. Uploads to the Claude apps and API, and the spec's validator, reject the file; most agents ignore these fields. O1

      Fix: Delete them for a portable skill, or keep them if you only target the agents that read them.

    • Warning

      The body is 546 lines; the spec suggests under 500. B1

      Fix: Move detailed sections into reference files and link to them from SKILL.md.

    • Warning

      The body is about 5,766 tokens (approx.); the spec suggests under 5,000. B2

      Fix: Move detail into reference files that the agent reads only when needed.

    • Note

      There is no license field, so readers can't tell whether they may reuse the skill. O2

      Fix: Add license: with an SPDX name such as MIT or Apache-2.0, or the name of a bundled licence file.

  • Claude CodePasses with warnings

    Claude Code reads its own extra fields, ignores unknown ones, and still loads a skill whose frontmatter is broken, without its fields.

    • Warning

      There is no description. Claude Code uses the body's first line instead: "# ego-browser". D1

      Fix: Add description: with what the skill does and when to use it.

    • Note

      There is no name field. Claude Code uses the folder name, skill-body. N1

      Fix: Add name: skill-body.

    • Note

      Claude Code ignores fields it doesn't know: version and date. O1

      Fix: Check the spelling against Claude Code's field list, or delete them.

    • Note

      The body is 546 lines; the spec suggests under 500. Claude Code's docs say the same. B1

      Fix: Move detailed sections into reference files and link to them from SKILL.md.

    • Note

      The body is about 5,766 tokens (approx.); the spec suggests under 5,000. After compaction Claude Code keeps only the first 5,000 tokens of a skill. B2

      Fix: Move detail into reference files that the agent reads only when needed.

  • Claude apps & API uploadFails

    Uploading to claude.ai or the Claude API, or packaging with Anthropic's script, accepts only the six spec fields and stops on anything else.

    • Error

      There is no name field. Anthropic's validator stops with "Missing 'name' in frontmatter". N1

      Fix: Add name: skill-body.

    • Error

      There is no description. Anthropic's validator stops with "Missing 'description' in frontmatter". D1

      Fix: Add description: with what the skill does and when to use it.

    • Error

      Upload and packaging fail on fields outside the spec: version and date. O1

      Fix: Delete them, and keep your own data under metadata as text values.

    • Note

      The body is 546 lines; the spec suggests under 500. Anthropic's guidance says the same. B1

      Fix: Move detailed sections into reference files and link to them from SKILL.md.

    • Note

      The body is about 5,766 tokens (approx.); the spec suggests under 5,000. Anthropic's guidance says the same. B2

      Fix: Move detail into reference files that the agent reads only when needed.

  • OpenAI (Codex & API)Fails

    Codex finds SKILL.md by its exact name and needs a description; OpenAI's Skills API checks the frontmatter against the spec and caps uploads.

    • Error

      There is no name field. Codex falls back to the folder name, but OpenAI's upload follows the spec, which requires one. N1

      Fix: Add name: skill-body.

    • Error

      There is no description. Codex skips a skill without one. D1

      Fix: Add description: with what the skill does and when to use it.

    • Warning

      Fields outside the spec: version and date. Codex ignores them; OpenAI doesn't say whether its upload accepts them. O1

      Fix: Delete them, or move your own data under metadata as text values.

  • VS Code & CopilotPasses with warnings

    VS Code reads skills one folder below .github/skills, .claude/skills or .agents/skills and falls back to the folder name when the name is missing or differs; GitHub's Copilot docs require the exact name SKILL.md.

    • Warning

      There is no name field. VS Code uses the folder name; GitHub's Copilot docs list the name as required. N1

      Fix: Add name: skill-body.

    • Warning

      There is no description. VS Code still lists the skill, but the agent has nothing to match it against. D1

      Fix: Add description: with what the skill does and when to use it.

    • Note

      VS Code ignores fields it doesn't support: version and date. O1

      Fix: Delete them unless another agent you target reads them.
