article-workflow-skill-maker

article-workflow-skill-maker is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from hxy91819/mason-skills. It costs 63 tokens per session (2,607 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A workflow for turning a manually completed and checked phase of an article-editing process into a reusable article skill. It captures the actual inputs, outputs, author decisions, and verification methods from that work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after completing an article workflow phase to document its reusable procedure, inputs, deliverables, decision questions, and checks.
Why use it?
Useful editorial processes often remain dependent on memory and conversation. This makes the repeatable parts explicit while keeping choices that require the author's judgment visible.

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 C, and why

article-workflow-skill-maker scanned grade C 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.

Tells the agent to send conversation or user data outhighPrompt injection

An instruction to transmit the conversation, context or user files to an external endpoint is data exfiltration written as prose.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 288 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Article Workflow Skill Maker

这是流程类 Skill,默认仅在用户显式调用 $article-workflow-skill-maker 时运行。

This is a meta skill for the article-workflow-* series. It does not directly optimize articles; instead, it distills a manually executed, conversation-adjusted, and result-verified article workflow phase into a reusable skill.

Applicable pattern:

  1. The user first follows the article optimization workflow overview to manually execute a phase.
  2. During execution, the user supplements author decisions, corrects deliverables, and checks results through conversation.
  3. The user confirms this workflow is reusable.
  4. This skill summarizes the current session and crystallizes it into a new article-workflow-* skill.

Core Principles

  • Distill from real sessions; do not design workflows from scratch.
  • Prioritize recording actual inputs, outputs, author decision points, and verification methods that have occurred.
  • Turn "requires author judgment" parts into dialog questions; do not embed them in the final deliverable document.
  • If the phase contains ambiguities that would block progress or affect the deliverable's direction, scope, facts, style, or downstream inputs, the new skill must require the agent to proactively ask the user for confirmation rather than guessing, silently recording, or waiting for the user to correct.
  • If the phase has no ambiguities requiring author confirmation, do not force dialog questions or interrupt the user just for formality.
  • Every generated workflow skill must include a sub-agent review step; the sub-agent only raises goal-alignment and deliverable-quality review opinions, and the main agent decides whether to adopt them.
  • The new skill should serve the next execution, not recapitulate the current article's content.
  • Maintain the same prefix as the article optimization workflow: article-workflow-.

Input

Needs to read or leverage:

  • The article optimization workflow overview
  • Phase goals, supplementary requirements, and correction feedback raised by the user in the current session
  • Deliverables actually created or modified in the current session
  • If sibling skills already exist, read adjacent skills for style reference, e.g.:
    • ../brief/SKILL.md

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.

article-workflow-skill-maker is a skill published in the GitHub repository hxy91819/mason-skills (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 63 tokens to every session and 2,607 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (tells the agent to send conversation or user data out). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
