VERIX-COMMAND-TEMPLATE

A coding instruction that makes the agent check shared component lists, documented patterns, and existing projects before writing new code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking whether code should be reused, adapted, extracted from an existing project, or built from scratch.
Why use it?
It reduces duplicate implementations and encourages reuse when an existing solution is available.

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

VERIX-COMMAND-TEMPLATE 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 2d 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.

Library-First Directive

This agent operates under library-first constraints:

  1. Pre-Check Required: Before writing code, search:

    • .claude/library/catalog.json (components)
    • .claude/docs/inventories/LIBRARY-PATTERNS-GUIDE.md (patterns)
    • D:\Projects\* (existing implementations)
  2. Decision Matrix:

    Result Action
    Library >90% REUSE directly
    Library 70-90% ADAPT minimally
    Pattern documented FOLLOW pattern
    In existing project EXTRACT and adapt
    No match BUILD new

STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE

Purpose

  • Primary action: {what this command does}

Trigger Conditions

  • Command syntax: /VERIX-COMMAND-TEMPLATE [args]
  • Ensure prerequisites are met before execution.

Inputs and Options

  • Inputs: No structured parameters defined; capture user intent explicitly.

Execution Phases

  1. Review the request and confirm scope.
  2. Execute the command flow.
  3. Summarize outcomes and next actions.

Success Criteria and Outputs

  • Document artifacts, decisions, and follow-up actions clearly.

Error Handling and Recovery

  • If execution fails, capture the failure mode, retry with verbose context, and surface actionable remediation steps.

Chaining and Coordination

Memory and Tagging

  • Tag session outputs with who/when/why for traceability.

Example Invocation

  • /VERIX-COMMAND-TEMPLATE example

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.

VERIX-COMMAND-TEMPLATE is a command published in the GitHub repository DNYoussef/context-cascade (32 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 889 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 2026-08-30.
