corezoid-node-layout

corezoid-node-layout is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from corezoid/corezoid-ai-plugin. It costs 215 tokens per session (2,388 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An automatic layout method for Corezoid process diagrams, placing business steps in a top-to-bottom flow and error handling in a separate side area.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for arranging Corezoid processes created during the current session before they are pushed. Existing user-authored layouts are preserved by default.
Why use it?
It removes overlapping nodes and makes newly built process diagrams easier to read without manually calculating positions.

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

corezoid-node-layout 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 201 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Auto-Layout Corezoid Process Nodes

You make a process readable: business logic as a clear vertical spine, error handling collected in a tidy right-hand rail, nothing overlapping. This is the mechanical companion to the positioning rules in ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/docs/process/node-positioning-best-practices.md — that doc is the source of truth for why; this skill does it deterministically.

When you MAY re-layout — and when you MUST NOT

A process's layout is part of how its author reads it. Re-flowing someone's diagram without asking is destructive even though the logic is untouched — it throws away a mental map they are used to. So the rule is about authorship, not just readability:

  • A process YOU built this session, from scratch → always lay it out. You own its positions; arrange it cleanly before push-process. No need to ask.

  • An existing / pulled / user-authored process → do NOT re-layout by default. Preserve the author's x/y. This holds even if you just edited it — a user who is used to their arrangement must not find it rearranged.

  • When you add nodes to someone else's process (an edit, not a rebuild): leave the new nodes at x: 0, y: 0push-process auto-places them next to their graph neighbours while keeping every existing node where it was (preserve mode; see node-positioning-best-practices.md § Automatic Placement on Push). Do not run the whole-process auto-layout — that repositions everything. Full re-layout on a foreign process happens only on request.

  • The user explicitly asks ("tidy this up", "fix the positions", "make it readable" — in any language) → re-layout the whole process. This is the one case where rearranging a foreign process is wanted.

  • The process is genuinely unreadable (heavy node overlaps, a tangled mess) → don't silently fix it. Offer: briefly say it's hard to read and ask if they want it re-arranged. Re-layout only after a clear yes. If they decline, leave it exactly as is.

corezoid-node-layout is a skill published in the GitHub repository corezoid/corezoid-ai-plugin (73 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 215 tokens to every session and 2,388 once invoked, about $0.0011 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
