dx-standards-update

dx-standards-update is a skill for Claude Code from dikamilo/dx-workflow. It costs 33 tokens per session (611 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for creating, editing, or promoting project-wide development rules in a standards directory. A standard is a recurring rule for how the project works, rather than a note about one isolated event.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to record a new standard from a discussion, promote a mature lesson, or copy a rule from another file. It updates the appropriate standards topic and requires the project's context structure.
Why use it?
It helps turn repeated lessons into an organized rulebook instead of leaving them scattered across conversations or temporary notes. It also checks that a proposed rule is general enough to apply across the project.

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

dx-standards-update 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 — 41 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

dx-standards-update

Land a rule in the right context/standards/<layer>/<topic>.md. Standards are the rulebook — prescriptive, project-wide, stable, and edited in place (a catalog, not an append-only log). Read foundation/glossary.md for naming (a one-line habit — no section).

Guard. context/standards/ must exist. If it is missing, tell the user to run /dx-init first.

1 — Get the rule (three entry points)

  • From the conversation (no argument) — the user said "make this a standard." Lift the rule from what was just discussed; if it is fuzzy, ask one clarifying question, no more.
  • From a graduated lesson — a foundation/lessons.md entry that has stopped being "this one time" and become "how we do it here." Read it and carry its rule forward.
  • From --from=PATH — read the named file (e.g. a graduated lesson, or another project's context/standards/…) and take the rule from it.

2 — Load the contract (invoke dx-references with knowledge-layer)

Use it for the standards-vs-lessons distinction, the standard entry shape, and the promotion criteria — confirm this rule is recurring and generalized, not a one-off (a one-off stays a lesson).

3 — Place it: layer × topic

Pick the file by layer (global / frontend / backend / testing) × topic (the existing filename it belongs in, e.g. coding-style.md, error-handling.md). Prefer an existing file; create a new <topic>.md only when nothing fits.

4 — Edit in place

Append the rule or refine an existing entry — a ## <heading> plus one to a few prescriptive lines ("do this"), matching the shape and tone of the neighbours. No preamble, no rationale essays. If you are promoting a lesson, add a one-line note to that foundation/lessons.md entry that it graduated (leave the entry — lessons are append-only).

Done when

The rule lives in one context/standards/ file, prescriptive and concise; any promoted lesson is marked graduated. Then print what changed and stop:

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.
