yet-another-agent-harness: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/tech-debt/SKILL.md

tech-debt is a skill for Claude Code from dirien/yet-another-agent-harness. It costs 83 tokens per session (1,462 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A systematic review guide for finding technical debt, meaning code or project problems that make future changes harder. It examines architecture, tests, documentation, infrastructure, and code quality.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect a repository, identify technical debt, score findings, and create a remediation plan.
Why use it?
It turns scattered maintenance concerns into a prioritized list based on impact and effort.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is dirien/yet-another-agent-harness's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on yet-another-agent-harness 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 yet-another-agent-harness configures →

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

tech-debt 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 167 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Technical Debt Analysis

Investigate the codebase across 8 categories, score each finding by impact and effort, and generate a prioritized TECH_DEBT.md remediation plan. Four categories are analyzed directly; four delegate to specialized skills.

Prerequisite check

git --version 2>/dev/null && git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree 2>/dev/null

If not in a git repository, warn but proceed — git history analysis will be unavailable but other checks still work.

Step 1: Project context

Gather baseline metrics before analysis:

echo "Project: $(basename $(pwd))"
echo "Files: $(find . -type f -name '*.go' -o -name '*.js' -o -name '*.ts' \
  -o -name '*.py' -o -name '*.rs' -o -name '*.cs' | grep -v node_modules \
  | grep -v vendor | grep -v .git | wc -l)"
echo "Branch: $(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD 2>/dev/null)"
echo "Last commit: $(git log -1 --format='%h %s' 2>/dev/null)"

Detect project type (Go, Node, Python, .NET, Rust, mixed) from config files present.

Step 2: Delegated categories

For categories covered by specialized skills, delegate or note for future delegation:

Code quality — if the scout skill is available, run it against recently changed files. Scout identifies the top 3 improvement opportunities per file using Impact x Low-Risk scoring.

Linting — if the lint-fix skill is available, run its detection mode (Step 1 only) to identify which linting tools are configured and whether any are missing. Do not run the full fix pipeline.

Security — if the security-audit skill is available, run it for OWASP Top 10 analysis, secrets detection, supply chain assessment, and threat modeling. Include the security score in the tech debt scorecard.

Dependencies — if the dep-upgrade skill is available, run its audit step (Steps 1-2 only) to identify outdated and vulnerable packages with priority categorization. Include the dependency health score in the tech debt scorecard.

What ships with it

2 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.
