briefbound-code-structure-guard

briefbound-code-structure-guard is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from CCDawn/codex-skills. It costs 86 tokens per session (973 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-structure review skill that checks whether a source file or component is taking on too many independently changing responsibilities. It can recommend staying with the current structure, checking it more closely, or making a small responsibility split.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it during development or refactoring when a file, class, component, or function is becoming difficult to navigate or test, or when repeated changes affect distant parts of the same file.
Why use it?
It helps prevent large, hard-to-navigate files and avoids splitting code merely to reduce its line count. The focus is preserving behavior while keeping responsibilities and tests clear.

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

briefbound-code-structure-guard 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 4d 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

Briefbound 代码结构守卫

目标

防止本轮开发继续制造多职责巨型文件。只提取稳定职责,不为压低行数制造薄包装、转发层或碎片目录。

Briefbound task contract

  • Context Boundary: 已对齐结果、当前开发 owner、目标文件、相邻模块、调用方、测试和允许写入范围。
  • Output Contract: STAY / CHECK / SPLIT 判断;必要时完成最小职责拆分,并保持公共行为和验证证据。
  • Allowed Action: 读取目标、调用方和测试;在授权 scope 内提取代码并验证;不重写模块、改变公共行为或全仓扫描。
  • Success Evidence: 目标行为保持,提取单元具有可说明的职责和依赖边界,相关测试/类型/构建检查通过,且没有新增无价值抽象。
  • Stop Condition: 行数是唯一信号、文件仍保持单一内聚职责、拆分会扩大用户范围、缺少行为保护,或需要公共 API/架构取舍。
  • Route Out: 当前开发 owner、briefbound-planningbriefbound-pr-reviewbriefbound-simplification-reviewbriefbound-development-cleanupbriefbound-router 或 BLOCKED。

统一调用契约

  • 只处理 Briefbound task contract 范围;不匹配时回 briefbound-router 或当前 owner,不接管功能、Bug、性能或普通审查。
  • 用户可见内容默认中文,只报结构决策、修改、证据和风险;保留代码、命令、路径、API、skill 名和枚举;Route Out 仅以 Briefbound task contract 为准,末行写 下一步建议: <一个具体动作>

三档结构闸门

  • STAY:职责内聚且修改位于同一行为边界。继续开发,不输出结构报告。
  • CHECK:接近项目阈值、修改跨远距离区段或可能形成第二职责。检查 imports/exports、状态所有权、调用方和测试;证据不足即 STAY
  • SPLIT:至少存在两个独立信号,例如多个领域/层/生命周期混在一起、不同部分独立变化或复用、测试与所有权边界可分、反复修改造成导航或合并冲突。由本 skill 完成最小拆分。

优先使用项目规则;没有规则时,函数约 75 行、类/组件约 300 行、源文件约 500 行 只能触发 CHECK,不能单独触发 SPLIT。手写源文件超过约 800 行时优先检查,仍按职责判断。

默认排除 generated、vendor、migration、schema、fixture、快照、声明式数据和明确的单文件产物。

最小拆分

  1. 读目标、直接调用方和最近测试,只定位本次职责,不扫描全仓排行榜。
  2. 候选单元须能用一句话说明职责;仍共享大量私有状态时不拆。
  3. 优先提取完整行为、领域服务、独立组件或适配边界。类型、常量和 helper 只有独立消费者或所有权时才成文件。
  4. 保持公共 API、导入路径、错误语义和顺序;一次只移动解除当前风险的部分。
  5. 运行最近行为测试及必要类型/构建检查;纯移动也检查 imports、初始化和 mock/patch 路径。

拆分没有降低耦合、认知负担或未来冲突时,撤销本轮自己的结构修改并保持 STAY

低噪声约束

  • 不默认生成规划文档、结构评分、长度榜、worktree、子 Agent 或严格 TDD。
  • 不设统一行数硬门槛;普通 PR 仍由 briefbound-pr-review 主责。
Files

What ships with it

1 file 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.
