fail-loud

fail-loud is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Dailyaiagents/daily-ai-agent-toolkit. It costs 23 tokens per session (139 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command that records a failed dependency or tool step as a structured blocker.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it in build or release workflows to mark blocked work and state the reason and repair needed.
Why use it?
It prevents a workflow from claiming success when a required package or tool is missing. It also does not silently switch to another provider or send notifications.

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

fail-loud 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 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/run.sh, scripts/selftest.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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

Fail Loud

bash scripts/run.sh --lane build-1 --what "package build" --where "release" --reason "dependency missing" --repair "install the declared build dependency"

The command prints a structured BLOCKED record and exits non-zero. It never sends a notification or substitutes another provider.

Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
