acceptance-scope-control

acceptance-scope-control is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Gesondian/ai-collab-governance-skills. It costs 35 tokens per session (462 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A checking skill for limiting claims that work was accepted, passed, closed, or completed to the exact checks that were actually verified. It treats completion wording as a receipt with a defined scope.

In plain words
What is it for?
Writing bounded completion reports that state the tested route, component, environment, data, permissions, assertions, evidence source, and skipped checks. It can classify the result as limited acceptance, passed checks only, not ready, blocked by missing evidence, or needing a rerun.
Why use it?
It prevents a few successful checks from being reported as proof that an entire feature or workflow works. It makes missing evidence and untested conditions explicit.

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

acceptance-scope-control 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.

What it actually says

Acceptance Scope Control

Core Principle

Acceptance wording must not exceed the dimensions actually verified. accepted, passed, and closed are scoped receipts, not global status words.

Scope Dimensions

Every acceptance claim must state coverage for:

  • route or workflow entry,
  • surface or component,
  • viewport or environment,
  • data source and data shape,
  • role or permission assumption,
  • assertion level,
  • fact source,
  • receipt identity,
  • skipped checks.

Procedure

  1. Draft the intended acceptance sentence.
  2. Break it into implied claims.
  3. Map each claim to evidence.
  4. Remove or downgrade any claim without evidence.
  5. Add explicit uncovered scope and skipped checks.
  6. Return a bounded receipt.

Verdict Vocabulary

Verdict Use When
accepted_scope_limited All stated assertions passed within the listed scope only.
passed_assertions_only Checks passed, but acceptance authority is not established.
not_ready_for_acceptance Required assertions are missing or failed.
blocked_missing_evidence Verification cannot continue without a specific source or artifact.
needs_same_scope_rerun Evidence is stale, inherited, or not aligned to the requested scope.

covered_surfaces:

Common Mistakes

  • Saying closed because one failing case was fixed.
  • Saying accepted from a build, lint, or static scan alone.
  • Hiding skipped checks in prose.
  • Treating an upstream acceptance receipt as current evidence.
  • Expanding from one viewport, route, role, or data shape to all variants.

Red Flags

Stop and rewrite the receipt if it contains broad words such as "all", "entire", "complete", "fully", or "no issues" without matching evidence for every dimension.

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.
