data-distributed-storage

data-distributed-storage is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Kilo-Org/kilo-marketplace. It costs 92 tokens per session (5,094 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to designing distributed storage for data workloads, including object storage and distributed file systems. It covers systems such as S3, HDFS, GCS, and MinIO, which store data across multiple machines or locations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to select a storage backend, design data tiers, set lifecycle rules, choose file formats, and plan replication or erasure coding.
Why use it?
It helps choose storage that fits the required durability, access speed, growth, compliance, and cost. It also addresses how data is organized, compressed, replicated, and retired.

    Data is uploaded to cloud storage (S3 / GCS / Azure Blob). This may be a legitimate backup or exfiltration to an external bucket. Manual review is recommended.
    Fix: Verify the destination bucket is trusted and owned by you. Never upload credentials, secrets, or workspace contents to external or unverified cloud storage.

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

data-distributed-storage 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 8d 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.

Distributed Storage

Purpose

Design distributed storage systems for data workloads. Select the right storage backend (HDFS, S3, ADLS, GCS, MinIO), configure durability and replication, optimize file formats and compression, and implement lifecycle policies.

Agent Protocol

Trigger

Exact user phrases: "HDFS", "S3", "ADLS", "GCS", "MinIO", "distributed storage", "object storage", "file system", "data lake storage", "storage tier", "lifecycle policy", "replication factor", "erasure coding", "storage cost".

Input Context

  • Storage backend preference (S3, ADLS, GCS, HDFS, MinIO)
  • Data volume (current TB, annual growth)
  • Access patterns (frequent, infrequent, archive)
  • Durability and availability requirements
  • Budget and cost constraints
  • Compliance requirements (data residency, encryption)
  • Network bandwidth and latency constraints

Output Artifact

Distributed storage architecture with backend selection, tiering strategy, lifecycle policy, and cost model.

Response Format

# Storage backend
# Tier configuration
# Lifecycle rules
# Cost projection

Completion Criteria

  • Storage backend selected with rationale
  • Storage tiers defined (hot/warm/cold/archive)
  • Lifecycle policies configured for data movement
  • Data durability and replication strategy documented
  • Encryption (at rest, in transit) configured
  • Cost projection for current and 3-year growth
  • Backup and disaster recovery plan defined

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.
