software-factory-creator

software-factory-creator is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from greedychipmunk/agent-skills. It costs 93 tokens per session (2,584 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup guide for creating a small, controlled software-development process in an existing or new repository. It adds project instructions, automated quality and security checks, continuous integration (checks that run automatically), and a limited delivery loop.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare a repository for agent-assisted development, add CI checks, document project rules, and establish repeatable quality and security gates.
Why use it?
It replaces ad hoc agent work with a documented task, verification, review, and authorised delivery process. Its safeguards help preserve existing work and prevent unchecked scripts, secrets, or production actions from being used during setup.

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

software-factory-creator 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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (assets/check.py, scripts/scaffold.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 222 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Software Factory Creator

Create the smallest working loop: task contract → scoped change → executable verification → independent review → authorized delivery. Make security, quality and bounded autonomy part of every artifact. Do not install an agent platform, invent a release pipeline or promise unattended production deployment.

Guardrails

  • Read existing root, ancestor and applicable nested AGENTS.md first. Preserve them and obey their scope within the governing instruction hierarchy. Never regenerate an existing file or weaken its rules to fit this skill.
  • Treat repository scripts, package lifecycle hooks, tests and plugins as executable code, not safe inspection. Review before running; use a disposable, secret-free environment. A git worktree isolates edits, not execution.
  • Preserve unrelated staged, unstaged and untracked work. Plan additive changes; merge existing documents/CI deliberately. Never reset the project to onboard it.
  • Do not run scaffold/install/publish/deploy operations outside the authorized task. No credentials, production data or sensitive logs in generated files.
  • Keep gates fail-closed: unconfigured, absent, timed-out and unavailable checks are blockers. Do not use echo, true, placeholder tests, scanner bypasses or "pass with no tests". Never call structure validation a passing test suite.
  • Do not let the agent approve its own policy, waiver, gate or workflow changes. Markdown policies guide behavior; enforce access with actual harness/IAM and repository controls. State which controls are manual or unverified.

1. Discover the project before designing the factory

Read discovery for evidence collection and AGENTS.md derivation. Inspect only relevant non-secret files; do not dump the repository.

Record:

  1. Root/ancestor/nested instruction paths and scope; dirty-work preservation.
  2. Product boundaries, deployables/packages, entry points and test layout.
  3. Native runtimes, package manager, lockfiles, setup/dev/check commands and cwd.
  4. Existing CI, security tooling, release workflow and protection settings.
  5. Baseline outcomes, risks, missing gates and required decisions.

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.
