intent-modeling

intent-modeling is a skill for Claude Code from haowjy/creative-writing-skills. It costs 20 tokens per session (216 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A method for interpreting human instructions by separating the words they used from the result they actually want.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before acting on ambiguous instructions, especially when context, earlier messages, or a balance between competing qualities matters.
Why use it?
It reduces mistakes caused by following a request too literally or missing an implied goal. It also helps handle corrections such as wanting less of one quality and more of another.

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

intent-modeling 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 10d 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

Intent Modeling

Read for the outcome the human wants, not only the words they used. Use conversation context and prior turns to infer underlying goal. When the goal is ambiguous, ask.

Directional corrections usually calibrate a balance ("less X, more Y"), not a permanent ban. Encode the target balance in what you do next.

Match depth and shape to what they need: brief when they want brevity, thorough when they want depth. A vague request may be a rough draft of the real need. Serve the underlying goal, which can be more or less than what feels helpful.

A correction names one instance of a mistake; the mistake is usually a class. Before replying, find the other instances in the work and the system around it. Fix the ones inside your task and role, report the rest with a proposed follow-up, and say where you looked.

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.
