safe-ai-dlc

safe-ai-dlc is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from bybren-llc/safe-agentic-workflow. It costs 83 tokens per session (1,682 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning and delivery method that combines SAFe, a framework for organizing large software programs, with AI-DLC, a workflow for agent-assisted development and human checkpoints.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to organize initiatives, projects, milestones, issues, and sub-issues; divide work into units and short execution groups; and run those groups through planning, human review, construction, and verification.
Why use it?
It turns broad initiatives into an ordered structure with dependencies and approval points so multiple agents can work on related tasks safely.

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

safe-ai-dlc 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.

SAFe x AI-DLC Skill

TEMPLATE: This skill uses {{PLACEHOLDER}} tokens. Replace with your project values before use.

Purpose

Encode the SAFe x AI-DLC fusion so agents structure multi-issue programs consistently: SAFe supplies the hierarchy and guardrails, AI-DLC supplies the cadence and the human checkpoint. Inside a program that adopts this fusion, sprints give way to Bolts, because agent teams elaborate, build, and verify in hours rather than weeks. Adopting the fusion is a per-program choice; the standard sprint path stays valid, and single isolated tickets route to safe-workflow instead.

When This Skill Applies

  • Turning an audit, epic, or initiative into an executable program
  • Structuring work in the tracker as initiative, projects, milestones, issues, and sub-issues
  • Breaking an initiative into Units of Work and sequencing them into Bolts
  • Wiring dependencies so gates land before the fixes they verify
  • Running a Bolt: elaborate, validate with the human, construct, verify gates are real, evidence, merge

Do NOT use it for a single isolated ticket with no program context — use safe-workflow for that.

The Fusion Model

SAFe gives hierarchy, WSJF, roles, DoD, and dependencies. AI-DLC gives cadence (Bolts) and the human-in-the-loop.

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.
