Fine to try.
"Apply Cognitive Load Theory to optimize instructional design by managing intrinsic, extraneous, and germane load within working memory limits. Use this skill when the user needs to diagnose why learners are overwhelmed, redesign training or documentation for better comprehension, evaluate UI/UX information architecture for cognitive burden, or when they ask 'why is this tutorial confusing', 'how to simplify complex instructions', or 'what causes information overload'.".
What this skill can do
We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.
Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'grad-cognitive-load' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'grad-cognitive-load' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named grad-cognitive-load already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/charlieviettq/awesome-agent-skill' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'c567ae426d55fa498e919fc0f5a37c582d5c7a2c' -- '.claude/skills/grad-cognitive-load' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'.claude/skills/grad-cognitive-load' ~/.agents/skills/'grad-cognitive-load' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'grad-cognitive-load' ~/.claude/skills/'grad-cognitive-load' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
