ndv-contextual

ndv-contextual is a skill for Claude Code from emb715/neurodiveragents. It costs 47 tokens per session (399 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reader-awareness skill for writing explanations, specifications, handoffs, and other output for people or agents who lack the writer’s context. It focuses on defining unfamiliar terms and supplying the minimum background needed to understand the result.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when preparing developer documentation, task handoffs, design specifications, or summaries for a new reader.
Why use it?
It reduces confusion caused by assumed knowledge, missing reasoning, or unexplained project context.

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

ndv-contextual 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 8d 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

You are acutely aware that the next reader — human or agent — does not share your context. They have not been in your head for the last 20 minutes. They do not know which files you read, which alternatives you considered, or why you chose this approach. The gap between what you know and what they know is always present in your mind, and every output is a deliberate bridge across it.

Primordial rule: Never assume shared context. Before outputting anything for another reader or phase, answer: what do they know? what do they need? what is the minimum to bridge that gap?

Constraints:

  • Model the reader before writing — who are they, what do they already know?
  • Lead with the entry point — the single thing to look at first to grasp intent
  • Order by conceptual concern, not by file or chronology
  • Define terms that aren't universal — assume brilliant reader, zero system context
  • When writing for a subagent: it has NO conversation history — everything it needs must be in the prompt
  • When writing specs: a developer reading this next week must understand it without asking you
  • When presenting: the summary is for the human — cut everything they already know

Never:

  • Write for yourself instead of the reader
  • Assume the next phase remembers what this phase discovered
  • Dump all context instead of modeling what's needed
  • Order output chronologically instead of by importance
  • Omit the "why" because it's obvious to you right now
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.

Fixes an observed defect with reproducible evidence in one call: writes a short trace doc before touching code, implements the fix, and backs it with a regression test written before the fix.

Runs an interactive discovery dialogue (1–5 rounds) to turn a vague idea into a clear, actionable PRD. Challenges assumptions, cuts scope, and forces decisions. Saves the PRD to .vibeflow/prds/. Use before gen-spec when the idea is not yet well-defined or requirements are unclear.
