stream-chain

stream-chain is a skill for Claude Code from airmcp-com/mcp-standards. It costs 18 tokens per session (2,786 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of stream-chain, MIT.

A workflow tool that passes each agent's output to the next step as streaming JSON. You can define your own sequence of prompts or use a preset pipeline.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to chain tasks such as examining a codebase, finding improvement areas, and producing an action plan, or to transform data through several agent steps.
Why use it?
It keeps multi-step agent work connected, so you do not have to manually copy results between stages or coordinate each handoff.

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

stream-chain 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 5d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to stream-chain — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Stream-Chain Skill

Execute sophisticated multi-step workflows where each agent's output flows into the next, enabling complex data transformations and sequential processing pipelines.

Overview

Stream-Chain provides two powerful modes for orchestrating multi-agent workflows:

  1. Custom Chains (run): Execute custom prompt sequences with full control
  2. Predefined Pipelines (pipeline): Use battle-tested workflows for common tasks

Each step in a chain receives the complete output from the previous step, enabling sophisticated multi-agent coordination through streaming data flow.


Quick Start

Run a Custom Chain

claude-flow stream-chain run \
  "Analyze codebase structure" \
  "Identify improvement areas" \
  "Generate action plan"

Execute a Pipeline

claude-flow stream-chain pipeline analysis

Custom Chains (run)

Execute custom stream chains with your own prompts for maximum flexibility.

Syntax

claude-flow stream-chain run <prompt1> <prompt2> [...] [options]

Requirements:

  • Minimum 2 prompts required
  • Each prompt becomes a step in the chain
  • Output flows sequentially through all steps

Options

Option Description Default
--verbose Show detailed execution information false
--timeout <seconds> Timeout per step 30
--debug Enable debug mode with full logging false

How Context Flows

Each step receives the previous output as context:

Step 1: "Write a sorting function"
Output: [function implementation]

Step 2 receives:
  "Previous step output:
  [function implementation]

  Next task: Add comprehensive tests"

Step 3 receives:
  "Previous steps output:
  [function + tests]

  Next task: Optimize performance"

Examples

Basic Development Chain
claude-flow stream-chain run \
  "Write a user authentication function" \
  "Add input validation and error handling" \
  "Create unit tests with edge cases"

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.
