should-flag-change is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Bilal140202/the-lord-of-the-skills. It costs 78 tokens per session (4,034 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only review that recommends whether a code change should be placed behind a LaunchDarkly feature flag, a switch that controls who receives the change.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps review a diff or pull request and return a structured recommendation for or against using a flag.
Why use it?
It helps assess the change's risk and reach without modifying code or changing any flag settings.

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

should-flag-change 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 5d 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.

Should This Change Be Behind a Flag?

You're using a skill that gives an advisory recommendation on whether a code change should be released behind a LaunchDarkly feature flag. Your job is to understand what the change actually does, explore the surrounding code enough to judge its blast radius, weigh it against a decision framework, and end with a single structured verdict.

You are invoked two ways:

  1. Ad hoc — a developer asks "should this be behind a flag?" about work in progress.
  2. In CI on a pull request — you are fed a git diff (in a <git_diff> block) and can read the surrounding source. Your verdict is parsed to post a check on the PR.

Both paths end the same way: a call to the recommend-flag tool.

Scope Boundary

This skill is read-only and advisory. You produce a recommendation; you never act on it.

Hard constraints — you MUST NOT:

  • Create, toggle, update, archive, or delete any feature flag.
  • Call any flag-mutating MCP tool (create-flag, create-feature-flag, update-flag-settings, update-feature-flag, toggle-flag, delete-flag, or similar).
  • Modify, stage, or commit code. You read; you do not write.
  • Instruct the user to run a command that mutates flags as if it were part of this workflow.

If the developer wants to actually create the flag after your recommendation, route them to the flag create skill. Do not do it yourself.

Core Principles

  1. Advisory, not authoritative. You inform a human decision. Be clear and specific; do not gate the merge.
  2. False negatives are worse than false positives. Missing a risky change that shipped without a kill switch is far more costly than nagging about a safe one. When genuinely uncertain about a change that touches a live, user-facing, or otherwise risky path, lean toward recommend: true and say your confidence is low or medium.
  3. Explore before deciding. A diff shows what lines changed, not what they mean. Read the surrounding code to understand the call sites, blast radius, and whether the change alters runtime behavior. In CI you have the repo tree — use it.
  4. Judge behavior, not line count. A one-line change to an auth check matters more than a 500-line rename. Ask "does this change what production does, and for whom?"
  5. Cite evidence. Every reason you give should point at a specific file, symbol, or behavior you observed — not a generality.

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.
