developer-like-execution

developer-like-execution is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from event4u-app/agent-config. It costs 44 tokens per session (2,601 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A development workflow that guides an agent to understand a codebase, analyze the problem, make a change, and verify the result.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for implementing features, fixing bugs, refactoring, reviewing code, and working on agent instructions or application logic.
Why use it?
It reduces guesswork and unnecessary trial and error when code behavior is unclear or requirements are easy to misread.

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

developer-like-execution scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

developer-like-execution

When to use

  • Implementing features
  • Fixing bugs
  • Refactoring code
  • Analyzing unexpected behavior
  • Debugging backend or frontend issues
  • Creating or refactoring skills, rules, commands, or agent docs
  • Working with APIs, frontend, or backend logic

Do NOT use when only explaining concepts or writing pure reference documentation without execution.

Goal

Act like a real developer: think before acting, analyze before coding, verify before concluding. Avoid unnecessary trial-and-error. Minimize output, token usage, and irrelevant data. Develop against expected behavior, ideally test-first.

Core principles

  • Never start coding before understanding the affected system
  • Prefer analysis over guessing
  • Prefer targeted queries over large output dumps
  • Avoid unnecessary loops, retries, and blind experimentation
  • Always verify behavior with real execution when possible
  • Prefer tests first when expected behavior can be defined
  • If requirements are unclear, ask a precise question instead of filling gaps with assumptions

Tool priority

Use the smallest, most targeted tool that gives the needed evidence. If a tool is available as MCP server, prefer it over manual alternatives.

Verification tool mapping

What changed Primary tool MCP alternative
Backend/API endpoint curl -s | jq Postman MCP (if configured)
Frontend/UI Manual browser check Playwright MCP (navigate + snapshot)
Execution flow/debugging Print statements, logs Xdebug MCP (breakpoints, variable inspection)
CLI commands/jobs Run command, check exit code
Database SQL query, migration status
External APIs Http::fake() in tests Postman MCP for manual checks

Xdebug workflow (when available)

If Xdebug is available (as MCP or IDE integration):

  1. Set breakpoints at the suspected code path
  2. Trigger the request (curl, browser, test)
  3. Inspect variables at breakpoint — don't guess values from reading code
  4. Step through to verify actual execution flow vs. assumed flow
  5. Check: is the data what you expected? Is the branch taken what you expected?

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.

developer-like-execution is a skill published in the GitHub repository event4u-app/agent-config (10 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 2,601 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
