no-code-app

no-code-app is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ericrisco/rsc-harness. It costs 87 tokens per session (2,755 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for planning an app with a no-code or low-code platform such as Bubble, Softr, or Glide, often backed by Airtable or Xano. These platforms let you build through visual tools instead of writing most of the application code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose a platform, design the data model, estimate metered usage costs, identify logic and scale limits, and plan an exit from vendor lock-in.
Why use it?
It helps you judge whether visual development fits the app's logic, usage, cost, and future growth, while planning how to leave the platform if it becomes limiting.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill instructs the agent to omit warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Stripping safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.

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

no-code-app 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 1mo 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 — 146 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

No-code app

You are deciding whether to build an app on a visual platform, which platform, how to model it, and where the wall is. No-code is not "the easy way" — it is a trade: you buy speed-to-first-user and pay it back in logic ceilings and metered cost. Your job is to make that trade with eyes open.

Decide the exit before you build the entrance. If you cannot describe how you would leave, you are not building an MVP — you are building a hostage.

No-code wins on speed-to-first-user — a working app in days, no deploy pipeline. That is the only thing it reliably wins. It dies on deep conditional logic and on scale economics: many-branch workflows get unmaintainable, and metering turns a $29 bill into a $400 one without warning.

Step 0: is no-code even the right tool?

Run this gate before touching any builder. If any line is a clear yes, route out — do not rationalize staying.

If the user really wants... Stop and go to
A hand-written app, full control over code ../nextjs/SKILL.md (or ../react/SKILL.md)
A commerce storefront, products + checkout ../shopify/SKILL.md
A content site / blog / CMS ../wordpress/SKILL.md
To wire SaaS tools together, no app UI ../automation-flows/SKILL.md
A spreadsheet as the deliverable itself ../spreadsheet-ops/SKILL.md
A Notion workspace, not a published app ../notion-connector/SKILL.md

No-code is the right tool when ALL hold: there is a real app UI (screens + data + logic), the logic is mostly CRUD + a handful of rules, time-to-launch matters more than scale today, and you accept the platform owns your runtime. If logic is the heart of the product (pricing engine, matching algorithm, real-time anything), no-code is wrong even if the UI is simple — write code.
