GroundRules: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/archive/v3/skill_odoo-discipline/skills/odoo-idea-gates/SKILL.md

odoo-idea-gates is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from chama-x/GroundRules. It costs 68 tokens per session (1,119 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A method for deciding whether a proposed Odoo addon or product is worth building before implementation. Odoo is business software that can be extended with modules called addons.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to test an idea, narrow its target problem, assess likely usefulness or buyer demand, and decide whether to build it.
Why use it?
It helps reveal whether the need is already covered by standard Odoo, paid Odoo features, configuration tools, community addons, or existing custom code.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is chama-x/GroundRules's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on GroundRules 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 GroundRules 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

odoo-idea-gates 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 7d 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.

Odoo Idea Gates

Validate the idea before designing or building it. Kill, narrow, or strengthen weak Odoo module/product ideas using evidence.

Use this skill before implementing a new Odoo module, OCA addon, marketplace app, internal tool, or SaaS/product idea connected to an Odoo workflow.

First Move

Gather discoverable facts before asking:

  • Search the current repo for related addons, models, views, settings, wizards, server actions, cron jobs, integrations, and docs.
  • Check whether the idea is already solved by Odoo standard, Enterprise, Studio/configuration, an OCA addon, an Odoo Apps module, or an existing custom addon.
  • Detect the Odoo version, edition, industry, and target workflow if visible from branch names, manifests, docs, or config.
  • If $ODOO_SOURCE is set, inspect framework features before assuming a custom addon is needed.

If evidence is missing, ask exactly one high-leverage question at a time. Include your recommended answer or likely disqualifier.

Gate Workflow

Apply gates in order. Stop early when an idea clearly fails unless the user asks to continue.

Gate Pass Test Kill Signal
1. Insider advantage User has firsthand workflow experience or direct access to users. Idea came from marketplace browsing, generic interest, or guessed workflow details.
2. Existing solution search Clear gap remains after checking Odoo standard, Enterprise, Studio/configuration, OCA, Odoo Apps, custom addons, and adjacent tools. The solution already exists and can be used, configured, bought, or contributed to.
3. Existing spend Buyers already spend time, money, or consultant budget on adjacent pain. No one pays for anything near the problem; demand must be created.
4. Reachable buyers User can name 50 likely buyers/users and reach five for discovery within a week. Buyer is abstract or distribution depends on marketplace luck.
5. Wedge narrowness v1 is narrow by Odoo version, edition, industry, model/workflow, role, company size, and workaround. It serves many industries, roles, or workflows; example bad wedge: project management for Odoo users.
6. Odoo fit Smallest correct shape is clear: config, Studio, extension, OCA contribution, server action, wizard/report tweak, or new addon. It fights standard Odoo workflow, needs fragile view hacks, broad sudo(), or unnecessary new domain models.
7. Build/maintenance cost Security, multi-company, migrations, integrations, reporting/accounting/stock risk, and testability are proportionate. Small pain requires deep risky changes or upgrades would consume the business.
8. Value equation (Dream Outcome x Perceived Likelihood) / (Time Delay x Effort) is strong and first value is under 30 minutes. Buyer must reorganize Odoo, clean lots of data, or rely on consultant-led rollout before seeing value.
