errors

errors is a command for Claude Code from MadAppGang/magus. It costs 30 tokens per session (282 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for adding error handling and resilience to Bun and TypeScript services. Resilience means continuing safely or failing clearly when dependencies or requests go wrong.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design error types, validate inputs, add retries and timeouts, configure circuit breakers, or review code that should fail more gracefully.
Why use it?
It helps prevent hidden failures and makes validation errors, timeouts, retries, and service outages easier to handle safely.

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

errors 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

<user_request>$ARGUMENTS</user_request>

  1. Read skills/errors/SKILL.md in full first, resolved against this plugin's own directory (the tree this command was loaded from). It is the router: it names which files in skills/errors/references/ your task actually needs. Read those too before writing code.

Use this for error handling, custom error types, validation boundaries, retries, timeouts, circuit breakers, or any "this should fail more gracefully" task.

  1. Copy skills/errors/assets/errors/ into the project rather than retyping the hierarchy. The operational-vs-programmer distinction is the whole design; AppError.isOperational() returns false for anything unrecognised, which is the safe default.
  2. Before reporting done: grep the diff for the four swallow patterns in the skill's Acceptance section, and confirm every fetch/DB call on a request path is wrapped in withTimeout. catch (e) { throw new Error(e.message) } destroys the stack AND the cause.

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.
