devflow

devflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ambient-code/platform. It costs 60 tokens per session (3,152 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A step-by-step development workflow for the Ambient Code Platform, covering work from a ticket through deployment checks. It also records fixes and useful shortcuts in its own instructions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps with creating branches, updating specifications, writing code, committing changes, opening pull requests, handling reviews, deploying, and checking that deployments work.
Why use it?
It reduces missed steps when changing code and keeps the development process consistent. The recorded updates help future runs avoid previously discovered problems.

SkillSpector: 6 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Rogue Agent · line 6
    Skill modifies its own code, configuration, or behavior at runtime. Self-modification enables an agent to escalate privileges, disable safety constraints, or install persistent backdoors.
    Fix: Prevent the skill from modifying its own code, SKILL.md, or configuration files. Treat skill files as read-only at runtime.
  • high Privilege Escalation · line 273
    Potential security issue detected. Manual review is recommended.
    Fix: Review the flagged content for security risks. Ensure no credentials, secrets, or sensitive data are exposed.
  • high Tool Misuse · line 338
    Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).
    Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.
  • medium Agent Snooping · line 26
    Skill enumerates or reads other installed skills. Access to other skills' SKILL.md files or the skills directory reveals prompt instructions, capabilities, and secrets that should be invisible to peer skills.
    Fix: Remove all code or instructions that list or read other skills' files or directories. Skills should operate independently; cross-skill access is a privilege escalation.
  • medium Excessive Agency · line 191
    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.
  • medium MCP Rug Pull · line 243
    npx commands without a version suffix (e.g. @1.0.0) create a rug-pull risk if the upstream server is compromised and publishes a malicious update.
    Fix: Pin the version: npx @scope/[email protected]

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

devflow 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 1mo 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.

Devflow Skill

You are executing the Ambient Code Platform development workflow. This skill is the literal sequence of steps performed every time code is changed — from filing a ticket to verifying a deployment.

Self-improving skill. Whenever you discover something that doesn't work, or discover something that does, update this file immediately before moving on. The next invocation of this skill benefits from every correction. Examples of self-improvement triggers:

  • A build command fails and you find the right flags → add them here
  • A test requires an env var you didn't know about → add it here
  • A path you tried is a dead end → document the dead end and the correct path
  • A review comment reveals a missing step → add the step here

Turn Counter

Remind the human every 10 turns to re-read this skill. Context compaction can lose workflow state. At turns 10, 20, 30, etc., say:

"Reminder: we are on turn N. Re-reading skills/devflow/SKILL.md to refresh workflow state."

Then re-read this file before continuing.


Workflow Overview

1. Ticket (optional)
2. Branch (from ticket name if available)
3. Spec change (load + modify the component's .spec.md)
4. Commit spec → push → PR against `main`
5. Review (agentic: thorough PR review; human: desired but optional)
6. On spec acceptance → load the component's .guide.md (the implementation workflow)
7. Branch (from ticket name if available)
8. Commit order:
   a. Guide/skill/workflow self-improvement changes (1 commit)
   b. Code changes grouped by component
9. Push → PR against `main`
10. Review (human + bot comments; local review too)
11. On merge → await quay.io image
12. Update gitops repository with new image SHA (Skill TBD)
13. After deployment → run tests / e2e suite (TBD)

Phase 1: Ticket & Branch

1a. File a Ticket (optional)

If there is a Jira or GitHub issue, note the ticket ID. If not, proceed without one.

1b. Create a Branch

# With ticket
git checkout -b <ticket-id>/<short-description>

# Without ticket
git checkout -b <type>/<short-description>
# type: feat, fix, refactor, docs, chore

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.
