BenchBox: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/shared-agent-execution/SKILL.md

agent-execution is a skill for Claude Code from BenchBox-dev/BenchBox. It costs 60 tokens per session (1,184 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of rules for choosing models and delegating work to other coding agents. It matches task complexity and risk with model tiers, reasoning effort, and an agent-running method.

In plain words
What is it for?
Selecting an agent model, setting its reasoning effort, and launching manager, worker, or independent-review tasks through supported agent systems.
Why use it?
It gives multi-agent workflows a consistent way to decide who should handle planning, implementation, investigation, or review. This avoids making every workflow choose models and delegation settings from scratch.

This is BenchBox-dev/BenchBox's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on BenchBox 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 BenchBox 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

agent-execution 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 2d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 87 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Agent Execution

Use this component when another skill delegates work and needs a consistent model tier, reasoning effort, or agent harness configuration. The calling skill continues to own task decomposition, authorization, workspace isolation, and acceptance criteria.

Model Tiers

Tiers describe operating roles, not absolute quality rankings. Match models to task complexity and risk.

Selection Rule: Pick the tier here. For native dispatch, choose the listed tier model directly. When an external harness is selected, take its exact harness-specific identifier from references/external-harnesses.md. Default reasoning effort to medium. Use maximum effort only for Tier 1 adversarial review; use low for mechanical bulk work.

  • Tier 1: Strategic
    • Models: gpt-5.6-sol, claude-fable-5, grok-4.6, gemini-3.7-flash-high
    • Usage: Strategic planning, architecture, high-risk tradeoffs, and final adversarial review.
  • Tier 2: Generalist
    • Models: gpt-5.6-terra, claude-opus-5, grok-4.5, gemini-3.7-flash-medium, muse-spark-1.2
    • Usage: Management, decomposition, integration, investigation, and routine review.
  • Tier 3: Contributor
    • Models: gpt-5.6-luna, claude-sonnet-5, gemini-3.7-flash-low, gemini-3.7-flash-tiered, muse-spark-1.2-contributor
    • Usage: Focused implementation, bounded research, bulk work, and parallel coverage.

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.

agent-execution is a skill published in the GitHub repository BenchBox-dev/BenchBox (12 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 1,184 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-04.
