ai-build-quality

ai-build-quality is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from 05-deepak-patidar/claude-skills. It costs 105 tokens per session (1,146 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A software-development process for getting dependable results from AI coding tools. It covers how to package tasks with goals, limits, project references, and checks for verifying the result.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write AI coding prompts, delegate implementation work, review generated changes, control scope, and set up project guidance files.
Why use it?
It reduces plausible but incorrect code caused by vague instructions, missing project context, and weak verification.

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

ai-build-quality 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 12d 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.

AI Build Quality

An AI model is a brilliant contractor with amnesia: enormous skill, zero memory of your project beyond what you hand it, and a bias toward plausible over correct. Quality is therefore not a property of the model — it's a property of your packaging, constraints, and verification. This works for any model; better models raise the ceiling, this process raises the floor.

Law 1: The spec is the product

Vague in, plausible-looking garbage out. Before delegating any non-trivial task, package it as:

  • Goal: the user-visible outcome, one paragraph. Not "add validation" but "reject payments exceeding the invoice balance with error code PAYMENT_EXCEEDS_BALANCE".
  • Boundaries: what NOT to touch/change ("don't modify the schema", "keep the public API stable", "no new dependencies"). Models over-help; unfenced tasks sprawl. Explicitly state what's out of scope.
  • Ground truth: point at the files/patterns that define "how we do it here" ("follow the pattern in payments_service.py", "errors use core/errors.py"). A model imitates what it sees; show it the best neighbor, or it imports its training-data habits.
  • Acceptance checks: how you'll verify — the command to run, the behavior to demo, the test that must pass. If you can't state the check, you can't detect failure.
  • Constraints that survive: invariants worth repeating every time (money is Decimal, all writes tenant-scoped, one transaction per use case). Repetition is cheap; corruption isn't.

Law 2: Persistent project memory beats per-prompt heroics

Maintain a project instructions file (CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md / equivalent — every serious tool reads one) containing what every task needs: run/test/deploy commands, architecture's non-obvious parts, conventions enforced, gotchas that already burned you. Rules of thumb: if you've corrected the model twice for the same thing, it goes in the file; keep it curated and short (a bloated file gets skimmed by models too); update it in the same commit as the change that made it stale.

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.

ai-build-quality is a skill published in the GitHub repository 05-deepak-patidar/claude-skills (4 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 105 tokens to every session and 1,146 once invoked, about $0.0005 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 2026-08-31.
