ng-impact

ng-impact is a command for coding agents from FlyFission/nuclear-grade-context-engineering. It costs 0 tokens per session (569 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that checks what other project materials may be affected by a controlled change.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before changes to systems, schemas, stored data, APIs, or other shared project items to identify follow-up checks and updates.
Why use it?
It helps prevent related documentation, tests, templates, prompts, stored versions, or release information from becoming outdated.

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

ng-impact 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 4d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 46 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

ng-impact

Portable command prompt generated from skills/checking-what-a-change-affects/SKILL.md. Edit the skill, then run python tools/ng.py gen-commands; do not edit this file by hand.

Screens what a controlled change might leave out of date across docs, tests, skills, commands, templates, checkers, prompts, releases, saved versions, and evidence, and names the triggers to re-check. Use when a change touches a controlled item. Do not use for a single edit that nothing else depends on.

Use when

  • A change affects more than one kind of artifact.
  • A change touches a running system, a schema, stored data, or an API other code depends on (brownfield or migration work).
  • Public claims, where ideas came from, checkers, tests, templates, skills, commands, dependencies, prompts, or the release may need updates.
  • A saved version or a re-check trigger may change.
  • A near miss, a weak control, or a lesson from real operation (OPEX) hints at hidden ripple effects.

Do not use when

  • The change is clearly Quick. It affects one local item and needs one proof step.
  • A current change-impact.md already covers the exact scope.

Inputs

  • The controlled-item list.
  • risk.md, basis.md, plan.md, and the diff.
  • docs/02-operating-system/change-impact.md.

Prompt text

Run a Nuclear-grade ripple-effect check.

Inputs:

  • packet:
  • controlled items:
  • planned or actual diff:

For each family of files, decide one of: update, leave as is, defer, or block. Name the updates needed, the controls now stale, the evidence links, the owners, and what should trigger a re-check. Pay close attention to public claims, validator behavior, source-lineage notes, handoffs, trust checks, lessons from operation (OPEX), and the release. When the change touches a running system or stored data, also screen the runtime blast radius: schema and state migration, API consumers that depend on the contract, backward-compatibility, and rollback-of-state.

Verification

  • No stale public claim, test, checker, skill, command, template, or release record is quietly accepted.
  • Deferred ripple effects have owners and triggers.
  • Blocking ripple effects show up in the release posture.

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.

ng-impact is a command published in the GitHub repository FlyFission/nuclear-grade-context-engineering (33 stars, last pushed 25d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 569 tokens. 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.
