skills: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

skills CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from luongnv89/skills. It costs 1,133 tokens per session, scanned C, original, MIT.

A catalogue and operating guide for reusable agent skills in a repository. It explains the skill folder structure, required metadata, validation commands, packaging commands, and project limitations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when inspecting, validating, packaging, installing, or creating skills in the catalogue.
Why use it?
It gives agents a reliable map of the repository and prevents them from inventing unavailable tools or commands.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents.

This is luongnv89/skills's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on skills itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything skills configures →

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 C, and why

skills CLAUDE.md scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 6d 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

- Ask before destructive ops (`rm -rf`, `git reset --hard`, force-push, branch delete).

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 68 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md — Agent Skills Catalog

Project context for Claude when working in this repo. Skill definitions live here; the runtime that loads them lives in ~/.claude/skills/ (out of scope for edits).

Critical commands

  • Validate a skill: python3 ~/.claude/skills/skill-creator/scripts/quick_validate.py skills/<skill-name>
  • Package a skill: python3 ~/.claude/skills/skill-creator/scripts/package_skill.py skills/<skill-name>
  • Scaffold a new skill: python3 ~/.claude/skills/skill-creator/scripts/init_skill.py <name> --path skills/
  • Local install dry-run: bash install.sh (interactive TUI; never pipe to non-tty without flags)

There is no npm, pnpm, make, or pytest in this repo. Don't invent test commands.

Architecture map

  • skills/<name>/SKILL.md — required skill definition with YAML frontmatter (name, description, metadata.version, metadata.author).
  • skills/<name>/references/ — on-demand docs the agent loads when the skill triggers.
  • skills/<name>/scripts/ — executable helpers shipped with the skill.
  • skills/<name>/agents/ — subagent prompts.
  • skills/<name>/docs/README.md — human-only catalog page; must start with the AI-skip HTML comment.
  • install.sh / remote-install.sh — end-user installers (bash, no deps).
  • dist/ — generated .skill bundles. Never edit by hand.
  • *-workspace/ — scratch dirs for individual skills. Never commit working files there.
  • Root *.md files (CHANGELOG, CONTRIBUTING, etc.) — repo-level governance, not skill content.

Hard rules

  1. IMPORTANT: Bump metadata.version (semver) on every SKILL.md edit. No exceptions.
  2. IMPORTANT: Quote any frontmatter string containing : # - < > | , & ? ! to keep YAML valid.
  3. YOU MUST keep each SKILL.md under 500 lines. Split overflow into references/.
  4. YOU MUST start every docs/README.md with the AI-skip HTML comment (see existing skills for the boilerplate).
  5. Never edit anything under ~/.claude/skills/ or ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md from this repo.
  6. Never edit dist/ artifacts; regenerate via package_skill.py instead.
  7. Never commit *-workspace/ contents, .claude/scheduled_tasks.lock, or local scratch files.
  8. Never commit secrets, .env, or anything matching **/credentials*.
  9. NEVER add Co-Authored-By: Claude to any commit message.
  10. Do not commit or push without an explicit user request — drafting the message is fine, executing isn't.
  11. Use Conventional Commits (feat:, fix:, chore:, docs:). Breaking changes go in the body, not the title.
  12. Skill name field must exactly match the parent directory name (lowercase, hyphens, no consecutive hyphens).
  13. Do not rewrite a whole SKILL.md for a one-line change. Use targeted edits.
  14. When a skill mutates a git repo, its SKILL.md must contain a "Repo Sync Before Edits" section.
  15. Run quick_validate.py against any skill you touched before declaring done.

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.
