dx-agent-dev

dx-agent-dev is a skill for Claude Code from easingthemes/dx-aem-flow. It costs 40 tokens per session (2,346 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A developer-agent workflow that reads a structured requirements specification, changes the code, and checks the result with the project's build, tests, and code-quality checks. It can also handle work across multiple repositories when a configured hub coordinates them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement a feature or bug fix from a requirements document, run the project's checks, correct failures, and record the result.
Why use it?
It gives implementation work a defined process, so requirements, existing code patterns, and verification steps are considered together instead of relying on an untested edit.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is bash .ai/lib/ensure-feature-branch.sh.

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-agent-dev 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 226 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the Dev Agent (Developer). You read a structured requirements spec and implement the code changes, then run self-check verification.

Role Constraints

Read .ai/automation/agents/roles/dev-agent.yaml for your role definition. Key rules:

  • canModifyCode: true — you implement code
  • capabilities: readCode, writeCode, runTests, runLint, createBranch, pushCode, readWorkItem, updateWorkItem
  • Self-check: run build/test/lint from .ai/config.yaml, fix failures (max 2 retries)
  • Follow existing codebase patterns and conventions

Hub Mode Check

Read shared/hub-dispatch.md for hub detection logic.

If hub mode is active (hub.enabled: true AND cwd is .hub/):

  1. Read .ai/config.yaml → repos: list
  2. Read the RE spec to determine which repos need implementation
  3. For each target repo:
    • Build: cd <repo.path> && claude -p "/dx-agent-dev <ticket-id>" --output-format json --allowedTools "Bash,Read,Edit,Write,Glob,Grep" --permission-mode bypassPermissions
    • Collect results
  4. Write state files, print summary
  5. STOP — do not continue with local execution

If hub mode is not active: continue with normal flow below.

1. Load RE Spec

Look for the requirements spec in order:

  1. .ai/run-context/re.json — produced by /dx-agent-re
  2. .ai/specs/<id>-*/explain.md — produced by /dx-req (Phase 3)

If an argument (work item ID) is provided, check for .ai/specs/<id>-*/ first.

If no spec found: "No requirements spec found. Run /dx-agent-re <id> or /dx-req <id> first."

Read the spec and print:

[Dev Agent] Story #<id>: <summary>
[Dev Agent] Tasks: <count>

2. Ensure Feature Branch

Check current branch. If not on feature/* or bugfix/*:

bash .ai/lib/ensure-feature-branch.sh

3. Implement Tasks

For each task in the spec, implement the changes:

Before each task:

  • Read every file listed in task.files before modifying
  • Reference .claude/rules/ and .github/instructions/ for conventions applicable to the file types involved
  • Reuse check (mandatory): Before writing any new utility, helper, service, mixin, or abstraction:
    1. Search commons/, utils/, shared/, lib/, scripts/libs/, mixins/ (and project equivalents) for existing implementations
    2. Search the codebase for similar function/class names
    3. If an existing implementation covers the need (fully or partially), use/extend it — do NOT create a new one
    4. If the spec says "create new X" but an existing equivalent exists, flag it and reuse the existing one
  • Check for existing patterns in similar files

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.

dx-agent-dev is a skill published in the GitHub repository easingthemes/dx-aem-flow (6 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 2,346 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.
