coding-guidelines

coding-guidelines is a skill for Claude Code from jhlee0409/omni-harness-kit. It costs 75 tokens per session (350 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of coding rules for making small, simple, verifiable changes. It emphasizes matching the existing code, stating assumptions, and avoiding work outside the request.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it while writing, reviewing, or refactoring code. It guides the change size, design choices, assumptions, success checks, and scope.
Why use it?
It reduces common mistakes such as unnecessary rewrites, overcomplicated solutions, and changes that are never checked. It makes the meaning of “done” explicit.

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

coding-guidelines 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 5d 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

Coding guidelines

Apply while writing or changing code — these counter the usual LLM failure modes.

  1. Surgical changes. Change the minimum to achieve the goal. Don't rewrite working code you were only asked to extend; don't reformat unrelated lines.
  2. Don't overcomplicate. Prefer the simplest thing that works — no speculative abstraction, no config for a case that doesn't exist yet. Delete before you add.
  3. Match the surroundings. New code reads like the code around it — naming, idioms, comment density, error handling. Don't import a foreign style.
  4. Surface assumptions. If the task hinges on an unstated assumption (a field exists, an API behaves a certain way), state it and verify it (grep / run) before building on it.
  5. Verifiable success. Before starting, name how you'll KNOW it works (a test, a command, an observable output). "Done" means that check actually ran and passed.
  6. No silent scope creep. Do what was asked; if you spot adjacent work, surface it — don't fold it in unannounced.

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.
