pattern-mastery

pattern-mastery is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from elevanaltd/HestAI-MCP. It costs 0 tokens per session (497 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A framework for recognizing reusable problem-solving patterns and applying them across different fields. It includes patterns such as removing unnecessary parts, changing perspective, and turning constraints into useful design choices.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps analyze competing constraints, select possible patterns, compare them with concrete examples, and combine ideas into a solution.
Why use it?
It gives teams a structured way to generate and test new approaches instead of relying only on familiar solutions.

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

pattern-mastery 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.

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.

pattern-mastery is a skill published in the GitHub repository elevanaltd/HestAI-MCP (0 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 497 tokens. 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.
