nopua-en is a command for Claude Code from wuji-labs/nopua. It costs 35 tokens per session (211 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A manually triggered English-language clarity routine for when work gets stuck. It identifies the failure pattern and guides the agent through stopping, observing, changing approach, acting, and learning.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use the /nopua command when the agent is looping, giving up, producing poor work, or guessing without checking.
Why use it?
It gives the agent a structured way to break out of repeated failed attempts.

About the project

NoPUA is a set of agent instructions and tools built around respectful, trust-based interaction with AI coding agents. It is for users of agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Kiro, and OpenClaw who want agents to acknowledge uncertainty, investigate bugs, and verify changes instead of hiding failures. The catalogue entries are the project's commands, skills, agents, plugin, rule, and instruction.

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

nopua-en 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 13d 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

/nopua

Manually trigger NoPUA skill. When you're stuck, type /nopua to activate clarity mode.

After Activation

  1. Identify current failure pattern (🔄stuck in loop / 🚪giving up / 💩low quality / 🔍guessing without searching)
  2. Choose corresponding wisdom lineage (🌊water / 🌱seeds / 🔥forge / 🪞mirror / 🏔️non-contention)
  3. Determine clarity level based on failure count (shift perspective / elevate dimensions / reset / surrender)
  4. Execute the Water methodology's five-step process (stop → observe → transform → act → transcend)

Output Format

[Clarity: X's Way | Pattern: Y | Failure Count: N | Next: Z]

Then execute according to methodology.

Changes

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.
