dart: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/dart-contribute/SKILL.md

dart-contribute is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from dartsim/dart. It costs 24 tokens per session (544 once invoked), scanned A, original, BSD-2-Clause.

A contribution workflow for the DART project covering branches, pull requests, reviews, testing, and changelog decisions. A pull request is a proposed code change submitted for review.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for preparing features, documentation, refactors, and dual pull requests for bug fixes, including local checks and release-note decisions.
Why use it?
It gives contributors project-specific rules for choosing branches, validating changes, and handling bug fixes across release lines.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is dartsim/dart's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on dart itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything dart configures →

About the project

DART is an open-source C++23 physics engine that simulates the movement and interactions of articulated rigid-body systems for robotics, animation, and machine learning. Researchers and developers use it for kinematics, dynamics, collision handling, constraints, and loading robot models, with C++ and Python interfaces. The catalogue add-ons support workflows built around this engine.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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

dart-contribute 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 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.

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.

Branch Naming

  • feature/<topic> - New features
  • fix/<topic> - Bug fixes
  • refactor/<topic> - Refactoring
  • docs/<topic> - Documentation

Features, docs, and non-bugfix refactors branch from origin/main. Bug fixes that apply to the current release line branch from the active DART 6 LTS origin/release-6.* branch first and then reach main as a second PR (the dual-PR rule in docs/onboarding/contributing.md).

PR Path

Run pixi run lint before committing and the task-type gate set from docs/ai/verification.md; use dart-pr for authorized local preparation and commits. Before publication or another approval-gated action, verify existing explicit maintainer/user approval covers its action, target, and scope; ask only for missing authority. Use dart-changelog to decide the CHANGELOG.md entry per docs/onboarding/changelog.md. Use plain descriptive commit messages and PR titles without agent tags. Update published PR branches with additive commits after merging the target branch; never rebase or force-push a published PR branch unless the maintainer explicitly asks.

Milestones (Required)

Target Branch Milestone
main DART 7.0 (or next major)

# After explicit maintainer/user approval, set milestone on an existing PR

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.
