splicedeck: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/contributing-to-splicedeck/SKILL.md

contributing-to-splicedeck is a skill for Claude Code from ihuzaifashoukat/splicedeck. It costs 91 tokens per session (1,183 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A contribution guide for changing splicedeck, a local video editor driven by AI agents. It explains how to add or change commands, refusal codes, checks, and packages while following the project's governing documents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when editing splicedeck, checks, or documentation, adding a command or refusal, or investigating a failed check.
Why use it?
It gives a defined path for making changes and resolving disagreements between code and documentation. This avoids inconsistent command interfaces and undocumented assumptions.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is ihuzaifashoukat/splicedeck's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on splicedeck itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything splicedeck configures →

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

contributing-to-splicedeck 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 107 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Contributing to splicedeck

AGENTS.md is the contract — twelve hard rules and the table that says which document owns which concern. It is imported by CLAUDE.md and is not restated here. Read it. This file is the mechanics.

When two documents disagree

The ownership table in AGENTS.md decides. The owner is right by definition; edit the other document, never the owner. If code and an owner document disagree, the code is the bug.

Anything marked Open in an owner document is genuinely undecided. Do not resolve one silently. Raise it, and if you must proceed, write the assumption where a reviewer will see it.

Adding or changing a verb

The CLI and the MCP server are generated from splicedeck/surface/verbs.py. There is one table and two consumers, and a check asserts they cannot drift.

  1. Edit the Verb row in verbs.py. Never touch terminal.py's parser or mcp.py's tool list — a hand-added tool fails test_surface_parity.py.
  2. Add the handler with @_impl("<name>") in dispatch.py.
  3. Name a return shape in shapes.py. Every trim path must resolve against it.
  4. python -m checks.golden to regenerate, and read the diff. A surface change is supposed to be reviewable.
  5. Update docs/agent-surface.md, which owns the verb table.

Triggers must not share a leading verb phrase — that check exists because overlapping triggers are the failure the table prevents.

Adding a refusal code

A refusal ships with its correction or it does not ship.

  • always class: retry_with is non-empty at every construction site.
  • human class: needs_human true and a human_step of at most 160 characters.
  • Declare it in the refusals tuple of every verb that can raise it. The static check walks verb implementations only, so a code raised from dispatch.call itself needs its own assertion.
  • retry_with takes a sequence of calls. retry_with=({...}) without the trailing comma is a dict, list() of it yields the dict's keys, and the caller receives ["verb", "args"]. Five sites shipped that way.
  • python -m checks.skillref regenerates the catalogue the skills reference.

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.
