ds-plan

ds-plan is a skill for Claude Code from igloude/ds-skills. It costs 29 tokens per session (2,245 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning method for matching a feature's interface to an existing design system, the shared set of components and rules used to build a product's UI. It records which components are covered, which can be composed, and where the design system needs additions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Mapping a feature's UI to available components, planning the build sequence, and identifying design-system work items before coding.
Why use it?
It catches design-system decisions before implementation, reducing the chance that a feature uses the wrong component or unsupported settings.

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

ds-plan 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 9d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 92 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

ds-plan

Decide what gets built, from what, before anything is built. Every violation a gate catches was really a decision made seconds earlier, when someone — increasingly a generating agent — picked a component and guessed at its props. This skill moves that decision upstream, makes it with the actual API in hand, and writes it down. The byproduct is free: the extensions and gaps a feature exposes are exactly the design system's next backlog, discovered by demand instead of by committee.

The output is falsifiable, which is the point: run /ds-drift on the branch that implements this map, and every element you marked Covered should pass. If it doesn't, either the map was wrong or the generator ignored it — both worth knowing.

This skill is report-only and every output must survive a cold read — both terms, the family rules they summarize, and the plans/ directory conventions are defined in ../ds-drift/references/conventions.md. Read it now; it is short and load-bearing.

Skill rules

  1. Family rule 5 is this skill's center of gravity: every Covered and Composable classification cites the manifest inventory row or the component's actual types at file:line, and names every prop it claims. Unverified means not Covered — classify it down the ladder and say why.
  2. A Don't-build verdict quotes its policy source — the manifest's policy zone, a documented guideline, or a deprecation record. No citation, no verdict: classify the element on the ladder and record the concern as advisory. Pushing back on a designer is authority you spend, not authority you assume.
  3. Coverage maps carry a -map- slug (plans/NNN-map-<slug>.md) so maps, reviews, and plans read apart in the shared directory.

Done means

A run is done when: the map file exists and survives a cold read; every inventoried element appears exactly once, in exactly one bucket, marked drawn or implied; every Covered and Composable row cites file:line in real types; every Extension and Net-new item names what it blocks and an interim strategy; and "Not classified" and the confidence line are filled in — even when the answers are "none" and "HIGH". Phase 6 checks exactly this before you finish.

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.

ds-plan is a skill published in the GitHub repository igloude/ds-skills (8 stars, last pushed 20d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 2,245 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
