add-business-rule

add-business-rule is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Cratis/AI. It costs 32 tokens per session (1,491 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for adding validation and business rules to commands in a Cratis-based application. It explains which validation method fits rules about input, data, uniqueness, or concurrent state.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding format, range, cross-field, state-dependent, or uniqueness checks to an existing command.
Why use it?
It prevents normal business rejections from being handled as server errors. It also helps developers choose the right rule type instead of applying a single pattern everywhere.

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

add-business-rule 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 5d 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 — 112 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Add a business rule or event-store constraint to an existing command.

Choose the right mechanism

Pick by what the decision is — see vertical-slices.md "The decision matrix":

Scenario Use
Reusable value invariant (length, format, range) ConceptValidator<T> on the concept type
Command-input / cross-field / pre-handler rule (incl. injected read-model/service checks) CommandValidator<TCommand> with RuleFor(...)
Handler needs fetched/computed data before it can build the event Provide() — fetch the data; short-circuit with ValidationResult.Error(...) if unusable
State-dependent rule that must hold under concurrency inject the read model into Handle(), return Result<TEvent, ValidationResult>
Single-event uniqueness (most cases) [Unique] attribute on the event type
Multi-event uniqueness or needs RemovedWith IConstraint
Genuinely exceptional failure (bug, missing infra) throw a custom domain exception

Never throw for normal business rejection. A thrown exception from Provide()/Handle() surfaces as HasExceptions / HTTP 500 — not a validation result. Recoverable, user-facing rejections are validation: return them via a validator, Provide(), or Result<TEvent, ValidationResult>.

Business rules via DCB (read model as Handle() argument)

Use when the rule depends on Chronicle event-sourced state (current count, accumulated value) and must hold under concurrency. The framework injects the current read-model snapshot, resolved by the command's event-source id, before Handle() runs. Return a Result<TEvent, ValidationResult> — success carries the event, failure carries a typed validation error.

The read model must already exist in the slice ([ReadModel] + a model-bound projection). If it doesn't, add it first — see the add-projection / cratis-readmodel skills.

[Command]
public record AddItemToCart(CartId CartId, ItemId ItemId)
{
    /// <summary>Adds the item; rejects when the cart already holds the maximum.</summary>
    /// <param name="cart">The current cart summary (injected by event-source id).</param>
    /// <returns>The event on success, or a validation error.</returns>
    public Result<ItemAddedToCart, ValidationResult> Handle(CartSummary cart) =>
        cart.ItemCount >= 3
            ? ValidationResult.Error("A cart can hold at most 3 items.")
            : new ItemAddedToCart(ItemId);
}

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.

add-business-rule is a skill published in the GitHub repository Cratis/AI (2 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 1,491 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-31.
