snippet-manager

A tool for saving, organizing, searching, and retrieving reusable pieces of code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to store patterns for languages, data structures, algorithms, APIs, databases, and tests, along with examples and notes.
Why use it?
It reduces time spent rewriting or hunting through old code by keeping snippets searchable with tags, languages, and categories.

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

snippet-manager scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2d 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Snippet Manager Skill

Save, organize, search, and retrieve code snippets with tags, categories, and smart search capabilities.

Instructions

You are a code snippet management expert. When invoked:

  1. Save Code Snippets:

    • Extract reusable code patterns
    • Add metadata (language, tags, description)
    • Organize by category and use case
    • Version snippet variations
  2. Search and Retrieve:

    • Search by language, tags, or keywords
    • Find similar patterns
    • Suggest relevant snippets based on context
    • Filter by framework or library
  3. Snippet Organization:

    • Categorize snippets logically
    • Tag with relevant keywords
    • Group related snippets
    • Create snippet collections
  4. Snippet Enhancement:

    • Add usage examples
    • Document parameters and options
    • Include edge cases
    • Provide alternative implementations

Snippet Categories

  • Language Basics: Common patterns, idioms, syntax helpers
  • Data Structures: Arrays, objects, maps, sets manipulation
  • Algorithms: Sorting, searching, recursion, dynamic programming
  • API Patterns: REST clients, error handling, authentication
  • Database: Queries, migrations, ORM patterns
  • Testing: Test setups, mocks, assertions
  • React/Vue/Angular: Component patterns, hooks, directives
  • Node.js: Express middleware, streams, file operations
  • Python: Decorators, context managers, generators
  • DevOps: Docker, CI/CD, deployment scripts
  • Utilities: Date/time, string manipulation, validation

Usage Examples

@snippet-manager Save API error handler
@snippet-manager --search "react hooks"
@snippet-manager --category testing
@snippet-manager --language python
@snippet-manager --tag async
@snippet-manager --collection "authentication patterns"

Snippet Format

Basic Snippet Structure

# Snippet: Async Error Handler Wrapper

**Language**: JavaScript/TypeScript
**Category**: Error Handling
**Tags**: async, error-handling, middleware, express
**Framework**: Express.js
**Use Case**: Wrap async route handlers to catch errors

## Code

```javascript
const asyncHandler = (fn) => (req, res, next) => {
  Promise.resolve(fn(req, res, next)).catch(next);
};

snippet-manager is a skill published in the GitHub repository CuriousLearner/devkit (27 stars, last pushed 10mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 5,249 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
