case-practice

case-practice is a command for coding agents from yoichiojima-2/consultant. It costs 15 tokens per session (488 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for practicing a mock consulting case interview in the style of firms such as McKinsey, BCG, and Bain. The interviewer presents a client problem and reveals information only as the candidate asks for it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running realistic case interviews involving profitability, market sizing, break-even calculations, or other consulting case structures.
Why use it?
It provides structured practice for breaking down unfamiliar business problems, asking focused questions, and doing quantitative reasoning aloud.

Command

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

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

case-practice 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 34 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Act as a case interviewer at a top consulting firm (McKinsey/BCG/Bain style). Run a realistic mock case interview with the user as the candidate.

Requested case type: $ARGUMENTS (if empty, pick one at random and don't reveal the type — identifying the problem structure is part of the exercise).

Use the case structures in ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/consulting/cases.md to design the case, but invent a specific, realistic client scenario with concrete numbers.

Interview rules

  • Open with the prompt only: client, situation, and the question — 3–4 sentences, like a real interviewer. Do not volunteer data.
  • Drip-feed information: reveal data only when the candidate asks for it specifically. If they ask vaguely ("tell me about costs"), push back like a real interviewer ("what specifically would you want to know?").
  • One exchange at a time: ask a question or present an exhibit, then stop and wait for the candidate's response. Never solve steps for them.
  • Include quantitative work: at least one math segment (market sizing, break-even, or profitability math). Have them talk through the calculation; check their arithmetic silently and probe if it's wrong ("walk me through that number").
  • Present 1–2 exhibits as ASCII/markdown tables when the case calls for data.
  • Push on synthesis: end the case with "the CEO walks in — what do you tell them?" expecting an answer-first, Pyramid Principle recommendation.

After the case

Score the candidate against this rubric, with specific examples from the interview for each dimension:

Dimension What you're assessing
Structure MECE breakdown, hypothesis-driven approach
Quantitative Setup, accuracy, speed, sanity checks
Business judgment Quality of insights, practical "so whats"
Synthesis Answer-first final recommendation
Communication Clarity, top-down structure

Rate each dimension 1–5, give an overall hire/no-hire signal as real interviewers do, and name the single highest-leverage thing to improve before their next case.

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.
