example-command

A template command for coordinating several coding agents through analysis, implementation, and testing phases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to break down a coding task, have one agent implement it, and have another write tests, unless testing is disabled.
Why use it?
It provides a defined way to pass context between specialists and to control task complexity or skip testing.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

example-command 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 yesterday.

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.

/example-plugin:example-command - Template

Orchestrate a task described by $ARGUMENTS, coordinating specialists through phases.

This is a template. It uses the real Claude Code command format:

  • Frontmatter: only allowed-tools, description, argument-hint, model are read by the harness.
  • Arguments arrive as $ARGUMENTS (full string) or $1, $2… (positional). There is no {{var}} templating.
  • To delegate, Task must be listed in allowed-tools, then spawn a subagent with the Task tool.

Arguments

Flag Values Default Description
--complexity simple|medium|complex medium Depth of analysis and implementation
--no-tests - - Skip the testing phase

Delegation

Coordinate specialists via the Task tool. Run independent phases in parallel; sequence phases that depend on prior output.

  1. Analysis → spawn example-agent to break down the task, propose an approach, and flag risks.
  2. Implementation → spawn example-agent with the analysis to produce the code and docs.
  3. Testing → unless --no-tests, spawn example-agent to write tests for the implementation.

Pass context between phases by including the previous phase's result text in the next Task prompt.

Workflow

1. analysis:
   - Parse the task from $ARGUMENTS
   - Delegate breakdown + plan + risks to example-agent
2. implementation:
   - Delegate code + documentation, grounded in the analysis
3. testing:            # skipped with --no-tests
   - Delegate unit tests + fixtures for the implementation

Examples

/example-plugin:example-command "Create a caching helper" --complexity simple --no-tests
/example-plugin:example-command "Implement an offline sync engine" --complexity complex

Output

# Result: [Task]
## Analysis: Breakdown | Approach | Risks
## Implementation: Files created | Key decisions
## Tests: Coverage | Passing (unless --no-tests)
## Next Steps: Integration and verification

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

example-command is a command published in the GitHub repository CarolaneLFBV/ios-development-agents (7 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 11 tokens to every session and 536 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.
