capability

A development helper for adding a capability, meaning a reusable piece of tool behavior, to a TypeScript codebase.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or update behaviors such as agents, skills, commands, rules, plugins, hooks, or settings, then connect and test them.
Why use it?
It keeps the capability's interface, implementation, tool wiring, and tests aligned when adding or changing runtime behavior.

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

capability 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 yesterday.

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 — 56 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Capability

Builds a capability class that encapsulates one tool runtime behavior and its corresponding Has* interface in domain/tools/contracts.ts. Each capability class is instantiated in exactly one AiTool<C> file; the Has* interface declares the typed field in the C parameter.

Available actions

# Action Role Input
01 define-has-interface Declare the Has* interface in domain/tools/contracts.ts capability name + field type
02 write-capability-class Write the capability class in domain/capabilities/ Has* interface from 01
03 wire-into-tool Add the capability to an AiTool definition capability class from 02
04 test Write unit tests covering constructor params and public API completed capability from 02

Default flow

01 → 02 → 03 → 04

Skip 01 when the Has* interface already exists in contracts.ts and only the class needs updating. Skip 03 when the new capability is not yet needed by any existing tool (e.g. adding it speculatively).

Transversal rules

  • Has* interface lives in domain/tools/contracts.ts; the field type is the capability class.
  • Capability class file lives in domain/capabilities/<kebab-name>-capability.ts; one class per file.
  • Capability class name ends in Capability (e.g. WidgetsCapability).
  • Constructor accepts a single params object; no positional arguments.
  • All public fields are readonly; no setters.
  • Throw CapabilityConfigError (from domain/errors.ts) on invalid constructor params.
  • Capability presence guard uses the in operator: "widgets" in tool.capabilities — never instanceof.
  • Named export only; no default export.
  • No any types.
  • .js extensions on all relative imports.

What ships with it

7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

capability is a skill published in the GitHub repository ai-driven-dev/framework (445 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 122 tokens to every session and 655 once invoked, about $0.0006 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.
