ℹ

Purpose & Capability

The description (text reformatting/reflow) matches what scripts/fmt.py actually does: it reads a file or stdin and calls textwrap.fill. However the SKILL.md documents options (-w, -u, -s), multiple files, and a default width of 75 — none of which the script implements. The core capability is coherent, but the user-facing contract is inaccurate.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md instructs use of flags (-w, -u, -s) and multiple file arguments. The script ignores flags and only accepts an optional single filename as argv[1] and a width as argv[2] (positional integer). This mismatch can produce unexpected behavior (e.g., users passing '-w 80 file' will break). The script also uses open(sys.argv[1]) which will read any path the user supplies — expected for a formatter but worth noting.

✓

Install Mechanism

Instruction-only install: no install spec and no external downloads. The script is included in the bundle and is small and readable; no high-risk installers or remote fetches are present.

✓

Credentials

The skill requests no environment variables, no credentials, and no config paths. The script performs only local file/stdin reads and text reflow — credentials or extra env access are not required.

✓

Persistence & Privilege

The skill does not request always:true and has no special persistence or system-wide changes. It does not modify other skills or global agent settings.

What to consider before installing

This package is small and not obviously malicious, but it is inconsistent: SKILL.md promises CLI flags, multi-file support, and a default width of 75, while scripts/fmt.py only implements a simple positional interface and defaults to width 80. Before installing or invoking it in automation: (1) review or run the script on a harmless test file to confirm behavior; (2) fix or request the author to implement proper CLI parsing (argparse) or update SKILL.md to match the actual interface; (3) avoid running it on sensitive files until you confirm it behaves as expected. If you need the documented features (-w, -u, -s, multiple files), prefer a version that implements them or patch the script yourself.

Like a lobster shell, security has layers — review code before you run it.
