build

build is a command for Claude Code from akka/ai-marketplace. It costs 23 tokens per session (1,013 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A local development loop that compiles, runs tests, and starts the service on your computer.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to compile the project, run its tests, and start a local environment with service discovery, gRPC proxying, and trace collection.
Why use it?
It gives you a way to find and fix build or test failures while developing, without building containers or deploying to a platform.

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

build 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 9d 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.

User Input

$ARGUMENTS

You MUST consider the user input before proceeding (if not empty).

Purpose

This command is the local development loop. It compiles, tests, and runs the service locally so you can iterate quickly. No Docker images are built, no containers are pushed, no platform deployments happen. When the service works locally and you're ready to ship, hand off to /akka-specify:deploy.

Outline

  1. Compile: Use the akka_maven_compile MCP tool to compile the project. If compilation fails, the tool returns extracted [ERROR] lines — read them, report to the user, and fix the code before proceeding.

  2. Test: Use the akka_maven_test MCP tool to run all tests. If tests fail:

    • The tool returns test failure details and [ERROR] lines
    • Report which tests failed and why
    • Suggest fixes based on the failure messages
    • Stop and hand off to /akka-specify:implement for fixes
  3. Start local environment: Use the akka_local_start MCP tool to start the local development environment in the background. Tell the user that the local runtime is starting — it provides gRPC proxying, service discovery, and trace collection on localhost:9889. This is idempotent — if already running, tell the user it is already active and report its status.

  4. Run the service: Use akka_local_run_service to start the service locally. This tool compiles first (catching errors immediately), then runs mvn exec:java in the background. Tell the user the service is launching against the local runtime.

    • Pass the environment parameter to set additional environment variables (e.g. {"LOG_LEVEL": "DEBUG", "DB_HOST": "localhost"}). These are merged with the current environment — useful for config overrides, debug flags, or connecting to external services during local development.
  5. Verify: Use akka_local_status to confirm the service registered. Use akka_local_logs with source: "service" to check for runtime errors. Test endpoints through the local proxy (localhost:9889). Tell the user the service endpoint URL and whether it started successfully.

build is a command published in the GitHub repository akka/ai-marketplace (6 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 1,013 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
