arn-code-swift

A workflow for making small software changes through a lightweight engineering process. It assesses the change, creates a short plan, implements it, checks the result, and records a report.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for small features, enhancements, fixes, or other changes affecting a limited number of files without introducing new architectural patterns.
Why use it?
It provides a documented path for straightforward changes without requiring the full process used for large architectural work. More complex changes can be redirected to a broader workflow.

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

arn-code-swift 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 — 617 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Arness Swift

Implement small features and enhancements through a lightweight, pattern-aware workflow: quick architectural assessment, inline plan, direct execution, verification, and review -- all in a single session. Every swift implementation produces a plan (SWIFT_<name>.md) and a report (SWIFT_REPORT.json), giving the same auditability as the full pipeline without the overhead.

This skill follows the arn-code-bug-spec dual-path architecture: assess complexity, route simple tasks to direct execution, escalate moderate tasks to task-tracked execution, and redirect complex tasks to the full pipeline.

This is an execution skill. It runs in normal conversation (NOT plan mode).

Step 0: Ensure Configuration

Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/arn-code-ensure-config/references/step-0-fast-path.md and follow its instructions. This guarantees a user profile exists and ## Arness is configured with Arness Code fields before proceeding.

Files

What ships with it

3 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.
