VerticalSlices: Skill for Claude Code

.ai/skills/create-event-model/SKILL.md

create-event-model is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Cratis/VerticalSlices. It costs 69 tokens per session (1,435 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of create-event-model, MIT.

Instructions for maintaining Mermaid event-model diagrams for Cratis modules. An event model is a timeline showing commands, events, read models, and automated actions in a business process.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding, renaming, moving, or deleting Cratis modules, features, commands, events, read models, automations, translations, or cross-module flows.
Why use it?
The diagram can fall out of sync when features or slices change. These instructions explain how to update it alongside the code using Mermaid's event-modeling syntax.

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

create-event-model 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 1mo 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 — 81 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Create Event Model Diagram

Use this skill when adding a module/feature, or when any slice within it is added, renamed, or removed — the EventModel.md for the affected area is updated in the same change. If the event vocabulary/stream boundaries aren't decided yet, use event-modeling first; this skill renders an already-chosen model.

Diagrams use Mermaid's native eventmodeling diagram type (v11.15+). The full grammar is at https://mermaid.js.org/syntax/eventmodeling.html; that page wins when in doubt.

What an event model is

It arranges a module's commands, events, read models, and automations on a left-to-right business-flow timeline — answering "what happens in this module, and in what order?" One file per module (or feature), in a fenced ```mermaid block, alongside the code: <Module>/EventModel.md; a system-overview at the source root shows only cross-module flows.

Mermaid eventmodeling cheat sheet

Frame prefix: tf (timeframe — auto-connects to the previous frame) · rf (resetframe — breaks the chain; start each independent flow with it). rf replaces tf; tf N rf Name is invalid.

Frame: <prefix> <number> <type> <EntityName>. Number is unique (order of declaration doesn't matter — frames position by reference). Type is one of:

Type Swimlane Represents
ui UI / Automation the persona interacting (persona name only — not a screen name)
pcr UI / Automation a reactor / automation processor
cmd Command / Read Model a [Command] record
rmo Command / Read Model a [ReadModel] record
evt Events an [EventType] record — use the exact, self-describing C# name

Multiple sources (->>): a read model or fan-in reactor fed by several frames references them by frame number: tf 10 rmo Profile ->> 03 ->> 06 ->> 09. Namespaces: a Module. prefix (tf 04 pcr Billing.CreateInvoice) creates a sub-swimlane — use it for cross-module entities and in the system overview. Comments: %% ── Section ── (don't use a frame as a section header).

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.
