How to use the Admin Access Register agent skill

What is an agent skill and what does this one do?

An agent skill is a folder containing a SKILL.md file that gives an AI agent specific instructions for a task. When the skill is installed, the agent can use those instructions when your request matches the skill's purpose.

This skill works out the smallest useful Admin Access Register setup for your business. Its default output is a short recommendation, not a spreadsheet. It produces CSV, SQL DDL, JSON Schema or Notion-ready output only when you ask for it.

• Keeps one row per system with named main and backup admins, an aggregate admin count and review dates.
• Records seat and plan details, 2FA status, shared logins and access-review dates.
• Prioritises fixing shared logins first.
• Stores only a vault reference for credentials, never passwords, tokens or recovery codes.
• Does not cover payroll, tax or legal questions.

How do you trigger the skill with a natural request?

You do not need a special command. Describe what you want in plain language. The skill is relevant to requests about access reviews, privileged account lists and admin rights.

Requests that match the skill's intent include setting up a register, moving a process from a spreadsheet into a structured register, checking whether an existing list is right, and asking how to run a review. The skill asks only for facts it still needs, one question at a time.

• "Help me set up an admin access register for our systems."
• "We track admin rights in a spreadsheet. Can you turn it into a register?"
• "Is this admin list right? Here is who holds admin on each tool."
• "How do I run a quarterly access review for our admin accounts?"

What does the agent need from you?

The skill asks about scope (which systems and how many admins), ownership (who approves access and whether there are shared logins), review (how often access is reviewed and what happens on leaving) and your current process. It records anything you do not know as unknown and continues. It never invents an answer.

No software or API keys are required for CSV or SQL output. Notion output needs the separate notion-manual-import skill and a user-provided import. The skill never asks for a Notion token.

• No software or API keys are needed for CSV or SQL output.
• Notion output requires the notion-manual-import skill and an import you carry out yourself.
• The skill never asks for a Notion password or token.

What are the safety notes for this skill?

This skill runs no scripts and uses no network access, according to its listing. Its output is a set of templates and recommendations.

Do not paste actual passwords, tokens or recovery codes into your requests. The skill is designed to hold only vault references. Minimise any review data you supply, because a requested review may briefly use the data you give it, and the skill does not promise the host never processes it.

• Runs scripts: no
• Uses network: no
• Enter vault references only, never credentials.
• Share the minimum data needed for the review.

What tips help you get a useful register?

Start with shared logins, since the skill treats them as the first thing to fix. Name a main and backup admin for each system, because naming an owner per account is what makes removal possible when someone leaves.

When you ask for a CSV, the skill uses UTF-8 with a byte order mark so Excel opens it correctly. A CSV is not an .xlsx workbook, so ask for a workbook only if you need one. A CSV has no data types, so after you open it, apply number, date or currency formats to the relevant columns yourself.

• Fix shared logins first.
• Name a backup admin for every system.
• Ask for CSV, SQL, JSON Schema or Notion only when you need them.
• After opening a CSV, format the number, date and currency columns.
