iterate-feature

A guided workflow for improving a software feature by sorting reported problems, applying fixes, and checking the result again.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when fixing issues, iterating on an implementation, or addressing code-review feedback.
Why use it?
It provides a structured way to handle review feedback and bugs without losing track of priority or verification.

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.

Made for: Cursor.

Per session 27 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 173 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

iterate-feature 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 2d 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

@docs/skills/iterate-feature/SKILL.md contains the full skill specification. Read and follow it completely.

The user's request is to iterate on the feature "$ARGUMENTS".

Follow all phases in order:

  1. Phase 0: Load context — design doc, feedback sources, changed files
  2. Phase 1: Triage issues by priority (P0–P3)
  3. Phase 2: Plan iterations with approach and risk
  4. Phase 3: Execute fixes with per-fix verification
  5. Phase 4: Re-validate (build, tests, design compliance)
  6. Phase 5: Iteration summary with verdict

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.

iterate-feature is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository janekbaraniewski/openusage (180 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 173 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. 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.
