pipeline

pipeline is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jlifyio/wyx. It costs 66 tokens per session (1,394 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for describing how data moves through a project, from its sources through processing steps to its final output. It records rules the data must satisfy and which part of the system owns each concept.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to document an existing data workflow, design a new one, or find parts of a project that need a pipeline specification in a PIPELINE.md file.
Why use it?
It makes hidden assumptions and missing quality checks visible, so developers can understand or safely change data transformations.

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

pipeline 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.

Data Workflow Specification

Generate a data pipeline specification — a structured description of how data flows through transformations, what quality invariants must hold, and which concepts own the source and output data.

How to interpret $ARGUMENTS

Determine the mode from the argument:

  • Path to directory/file (e.g. src/lib/server/syncs/): Retrofit mode — read the existing data transformation code, identify the pipeline stages, and propose a PIPELINE.md spec. Flag any quality invariants that are assumed but not checked.
  • Pipeline description (e.g. Sentiment scoring with recency weighting): Greenfield mode — design a data pipeline spec from the description. Define sources, stages, outputs, and invariants.
  • No arguments: Discovery mode — analyze the project for data workflows (queries, aggregations, sync chains, batch operations) and list candidates for PIPELINE.md specs. Do NOT generate full specs; ask the user which to elaborate. If discovery surfaces cross-concept coordination patterns (event handlers, scheduled jobs) rather than data transformations, note that /wyx:sync covers those.

PIPELINE.md Format

Write the spec as a PIPELINE.md file placed next to the data transformation code (one per directory).

# pipeline: [Name]

## purpose
[Single sentence: what data this pipeline produces and for whom]

## sources
- [name]: [table/file/API] → [key fields] ([row estimate or "unbounded"])

## stages

### [stage-name] [tool: <tool-name>]
in: [source or previous stage output]
out: [what this stage produces]
[1-3 lines: transformation logic]
quality: [invariant for this stage]

### [stage-name] [tool]
in: [...]
out: [...]
[...]
quality: [invariant]

## outputs
- [name]: [table/format] → [key fields] ([row estimate])

## invariants
- [data quality rules that must always hold across the full pipeline]
- [e.g. "output rows <= input rows" or "scores in [-1.0, 1.0]"]
- [e.g. "no null values in amount_tax_excluded after stage 2"]

## triggers
- [what causes this pipeline to run: sync event, API call, schedule, manual]

## data boundary
- [which concept owns the source data — read through its service, not direct SQL]
- [which concept owns the output data — write through its service, not direct INSERT]

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.

pipeline is a skill published in the GitHub repository jlifyio/wyx (3 stars, last pushed 27d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 66 tokens to every session and 1,394 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
