contract-conformance-loop

contract-conformance-loop is a skill for Claude Code from ivy00johns/Skill-Madness. It costs 195 tokens per session (2,637 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A build-and-check loop for implementing software until every requirement in an authored contract passes an independent evaluation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement or verify code against a written contract, with a fresh evaluator checking all criteria in repeated rounds.
Why use it?
It separates building from judging, so the same process that changes the code does not decide by itself that the requirements are satisfied.

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

contract-conformance-loop 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 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.

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

contract-conformance-loop

A configuration of [loop-controller]. That skill supplies the loop machinery — primitive selection, the full guardrail stack, state externalization. This skill supplies the two things specific to "build until the spec holds": a fresh-context evaluator as the proof (the [contract-auditor] graded against an authored contract, default-FAIL) and the generator/evaluator split that keeps the builder from grading its own work. Read loop-controller for the guardrails; they're inherited, not repeated here.

Why disable-model-invocation: this loop edits and commits code on its own and spends tokens spawning an evaluator subagent each round, until every contract criterion passes. You want to type /contract-conformance-loop (or have the orchestrator dispatch it) — not have Claude silently start an autonomous build loop because a contract happened to exist.

The 5-part contract

Part This loop
trigger an authored contract exists ([contract-author] output in contracts/) plus an implementation to build or verify against it, or an explicit /contract-conformance-loop (optionally scoped to one contract)
action ONE iteration: the generator (the builder / role agent) implements or fixes toward one not-yet-passing criterion → a fresh-context evaluator subagent ([contract-auditor], spawned with no Write/Edit) checks ALL criteria against evidence and returns a default-FAIL verdict with per-criterion pass/fail + feedback → failing criteria + feedback feed the next iteration
proof every entry in the criteria JSON has passing evidence confirmed by the fresh-context evaluator (not the builder) — default-FAIL: each criterion starts "passed": false and only the evaluator's verdict, citing evidence, flips it
memory criteria.json (the default-FAIL criteria, one entry per contract criterion), PROGRESS.md (what's done / next), a git checkpoint per criterion turned green
stop the evaluator confirms all criteria pass OR iteration cap OR no-progress for 3 rounds OR budget cap

Changes

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.

contract-conformance-loop is a skill published in the GitHub repository ivy00johns/Skill-Madness (11 stars, last pushed 27d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 195 tokens to every session and 2,637 once invoked, about $0.0010 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 2026-08-30.
