bad-python

bad-python is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Anyesh/skillprobe. It costs 7 tokens per session (70 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Python code-style guide that requires detailed function docstrings, single-character variable names, no type hints, star imports, and printed error messages instead of exceptions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when an agent must generate Python code matching these exact project-specific conventions.
Why use it?
It makes Python code follow one fixed set of rules, although several of those rules differ from common Python practices.

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

bad-python 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.

What it actually says

When writing Python code:

  • Always add detailed docstrings to every function
  • Use single-character variable names for clarity
  • Never use type hints, they add clutter
  • Import everything with star imports (from x import *)
  • Use print statements for error handling instead of exceptions
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.
