bom-validation-workflow

bom-validation-workflow is a skill for Claude Code from Ed3Design/ed3design-engineering-bundles. It costs 181 tokens per session (1,832 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for checking a Bill of Materials, or BOM—the complete parts list for a physical project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to compare a maker project's parts list with available hardware and produce a grouped list of missing components, prices, and sources.
Why use it?
It helps catch forgotten cables, connectors, screws, consumables, and items already in stock before an order is placed.

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

bom-validation-workflow 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 7d 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.

BOM Validation Workflow

When a Maker-3D project (embedded controller, audio build, smart-home build) has its component list defined, the typical next step is: create an order list. A frequent failure point: connection parts (cables, connectors, screws), consumables (filament, solder, thermal paste), and existing stock are forgotten. Result: 2-3 deliveries instead of one, plus blocked wait time.

This skill brings a disciplined workflow: extract the BOM, reconcile with the hardware stock, identify missing components CATEGORIZED (main parts, connections, consumables), deliver an order list with estimated prices + sources.

When to use

  • A spec note has a component table or list (>5 items)
  • Before an order at a parts retailer / Amazon / AliExpress
  • During the transition from design phase to build phase (see design-first-iteration + cad-construction)
  • When the user asks "can I build this now?" or "what's still missing?"
  • Cross-project check: ordering a part useful for multiple projects together

When NOT to use

  • Pure software projects with requirements.txt/package.json — other tools
  • Schematic reviews without a physical component question (schematic check is separate)
  • Projects with 1-2 components — discipline overhead not justified
  • The spec note doesn't have a BOM table yet — first finish design, then extract BOM

Workflow (4 phases)

Phase 1: BOM extraction from spec

Read the project spec note and extract ALL components. Pay particular attention to:

  • Main parts: microcontrollers, sensors, actuators, displays, batteries
  • Structural parts: printed parts (with material + quantity), aluminium profiles, wood
  • Connection parts (often forgotten): cables with lengths, connectors (JST/Dupont/XT60), screws (size + length + material), nuts, standoffs
  • Consumables: filament quantities (in grams), solder, flux, thermal paste, cable ties, heat-shrink tubing
  • Hidden prerequisites: power supply (adapter + plug), tools you don't yet own, programming adapters

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.

bom-validation-workflow is a skill published in the GitHub repository Ed3Design/ed3design-engineering-bundles (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 181 tokens to every session and 1,832 once invoked, about $0.0009 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 2026-08-31.
