template-feature-addition

template-feature-addition is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from docxology/template. It costs 58 tokens per session (509 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A development workflow for adding features to the Research Project Template, a codebase for running research analyses and producing manuscript outputs. It coordinates changes across source code, scripts, tests, papers, documentation, and pipeline stages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add pipeline-visible analyses, plots, exports, infrastructure checks, manuscript-facing outputs, or integrations, with tests and pipeline verification.
Why use it?
Features that affect several parts of a research project can become incomplete or disconnected. The workflow makes the affected layers, tests, generated outputs, and documentation part of the same change.

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

template-feature-addition 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 4d 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

Feature addition

Natural invoke

  • "Add convergence plotting to template_code_project end-to-end"
  • "New infrastructure gate wired into health CLI + tests + docs"
  • "Feature: export manifest JSON from analysis stage"

Inputs to confirm

  • Feature description — user-facing behavior.
  • Layer — infrastructure vs project (see code-development).
  • Project — if project layer.

Workflow

  1. Design — logic in src/ or infrastructure/; script coordinates only.

  2. Implement — src modules first (TDD: tests alongside).

  3. Orchestrateprojects/<n>/scripts/ or root scripts/ stage hook if pipeline-visible.

  4. Manuscript — figures/data paths, {{VARIABLE}} generated variables if numbers appear in prose.

  5. Docs — AGENTS.md/README at affected dirs; no roster duplication.

  6. Verify — project or infra tests; optional ./run.sh --project <n> --core-only slice.

Deliverables

  • File list by layer
  • Test + pipeline verification commands and exit codes

Verification commands

uv run python scripts/pipeline/stage_01_test.py --project <project>
uv run python scripts/runner/execute_pipeline.py --project <project> --core-only

What ships with it

5 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.
