template-template

template-template is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from docxology/template. It costs 32 tokens per session (457 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A meta-template that documents and tests the template repository itself, including its infrastructure, pipeline steps, security layers, and public project list.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to examine or validate the repository architecture, pipeline, security boundaries, and exemplar roster.
Why use it?
It makes the repository's own design and checks inspectable, helping maintainers detect inconsistencies as the framework grows.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

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

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is uv run python scripts/pipeline/stage_02_analysis.py --project templates/template_template.

Install

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/docxology/template

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-template 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.

What it actually says

template-template

Project-scoped skill for the in-repo exemplar at projects/templates/template_template/. Load this when working inside the project.

When to Use

  • Working inside the template_template exemplar — running scripts, editing source, or regenerating outputs.
  • Forking this exemplar as the starting scaffold for a new research project.
  • Validating that the exemplar's contracts (thin-orchestrator, layer boundaries, no-mocks testing) still hold after changes.

Quick Reference

# From the repository root
uv run pytest projects/templates/template_template/tests --cov=projects/templates/template_template/src --cov-fail-under=90
uv run python scripts/pipeline/stage_02_analysis.py --project templates/template_template
uv run python scripts/pipeline/stage_03_render.py --project templates/template_template
uv run python scripts/pipeline/stage_04_validate.py --project templates/template_template
uv run python scripts/pipeline/stage_05_copy.py --project templates/template_template

Pitfalls

  • Keep scripts thin. Business logic belongs in src/ or shared infrastructure/, not in scripts/.
  • No mocks. All tests must use real data, real files, and real computation.
  • Outputs are disposable. Never hand-edit output/ — regenerate from source and config.
  • Run from the repo root. Commands assume the template monorepo root as working directory unless the child AGENTS.md states otherwise.

Files

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.

template-template is a skill published in the GitHub repository docxology/template (19 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 457 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
