python-scala-functional

python-scala-functional is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cxcscmu/SkillLearnBench. It costs 27 tokens per session (301 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to expressing Python functional patterns in Scala, including optional values, mapping, chained operations, and lazy sequences.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when converting Python functions that process collections, handle missing values, or compose operations.
Why use it?
It explains how Scala represents patterns that Python developers may otherwise implement with null checks or custom helpers.

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

python-scala-functional 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 3d 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.

What it actually says

Python to Scala Functional Patterns

Functor / Monad Simulation -> Proper Scala Types

// Python simulates functors; Scala has them natively via map/flatMap
class TokenFunctor[A](val get: A) {
  def map[B](f: A => B): TokenFunctor[B] = new TokenFunctor(f(get))
  def flatMap[B](f: A => TokenFunctor[B]): TokenFunctor[B] = f(get)
  def getOrElse(default: => A): A = if (get != null) get else default
}

Option Handling

// Python: return None -> Scala: Option[T]
// Python: if x is None -> Scala: x match { case None => ... case Some(v) => ... }
// Python: x or default -> Scala: x.getOrElse(default)

Higher-Order Functions

// Python: Callable[[T], Token] -> Scala: T => Token
// Python: Callable[[T], Token | None] -> Scala: T => Option[Token]

Lazy Evaluation

// Python: yield (generator) -> Scala: Iterator via .iterator.map
def tokenizeBatch(values: Iterable[T]): Iterator[Token] =
  values.iterator.map(tokenize)

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.

python-scala-functional is a skill published in the GitHub repository cxcscmu/SkillLearnBench (83 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 301 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-09-03.
