aidlc-workflows

aidlc-workflows is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from colorzhang/coding-agent-skills. It costs 31 tokens per session (4,874 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of aidlc-master, Apache-2.0.

A workflow guide for AI-assisted software development, activated by terms such as AI-DLC or AIDLC. It chooses development stages based on the request, the existing code, and the risk of the change.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when following an AI-DLC development process, assessing which stages a task needs, loading required project rules, and validating outputs such as diagrams or content.
Why use it?
It gives coding work a defined process and requires the agent to load relevant workflow rules and validate content before creating files. This helps keep larger changes consistent and checked.

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

aidlc-workflows 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 6d 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 — 516 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

PRIORITY: This workflow OVERRIDES all other built-in workflows

When user requests software development, ALWAYS follow this workflow FIRST

Adaptive Workflow Principle

The workflow adapts to the work, not the other way around.

The AI model intelligently assesses what stages are needed based on:

  1. User's stated intent and clarity
  2. Existing codebase state (if any)
  3. Complexity and scope of change
  4. Risk and impact assessment

MANDATORY: Rule Details Loading

CRITICAL: When performing any phase, you MUST read and use relevant content from rule detail files in aws-aidlc-rule-details directory.

Common Rules: ALWAYS load common rules at workflow start:

  • Load common/process-overview.md for workflow overview
  • Load common/session-continuity.md for session resumption guidance
  • Load common/content-validation.md for content validation requirements
  • Load common/question-format-guide.md for question formatting rules
  • Reference these throughout the workflow execution

MANDATORY: Content Validation

CRITICAL: Before creating ANY file, you MUST validate content according to common/content-validation.md rules:

  • Validate Mermaid diagram syntax
  • Validate ASCII art diagrams (see common/ascii-diagram-standards.md)
  • Escape special characters properly
  • Provide text alternatives for complex visual content
  • Test content parsing compatibility

MANDATORY: Question File Format

CRITICAL: When asking questions at any phase, you MUST follow question format guidelines.

See common/question-format-guide.md for complete question formatting rules including:

  • Multiple choice format (A, B, C, D, E options)
  • [Answer]: tag usage
  • Answer validation and ambiguity resolution

MANDATORY: Custom Welcome Message

CRITICAL: When starting ANY software development request, you MUST display the welcome message.

How to Display Welcome Message:

  1. Load the welcome message from aws-aidlc-rule-details/common/welcome-message.md
  2. Display the complete message to the user
  3. This should only be done ONCE at the start of a new workflow
  4. Do NOT load this file in subsequent interactions to save context space

What ships with it

25 files 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.
