anomalia: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/wait-what/SKILL.md

wait-what is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from anomaliaso/anomalia. It costs 18 tokens per session (100 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of wait-what, Apache-2.0.

A short instruction for stopping and asking the user to explain the previous message again. It requests plain Simplified Technical English and the project's shared terminology.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when an agent needs a clearer explanation of the current context, progress, or requested task.
Why use it?
It is useful when the conversation has become unclear or the current direction is not understood. It helps reset the discussion before more work is done.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for Claude Code and Codex: disable-model-invocation in frontmatter, but also agents/openai.yaml present. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is anomaliaso/anomalia's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on anomalia itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything anomalia configures →

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

wait-what 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 10d 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 wait-what — 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.

What it actually says

Wait, I don't understand where you've got to here. Re-pitch that: give me a little bit of context, talk in ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English, and use the ubiquitous language from CONTEXT.md (follow CONTEXT-MAP.md to the right one if the repo has more than one).

Files

What ships with it

1 file 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.
