build-julia-interfaces

build-julia-interfaces is a skill for Codex from Krastanov/JuliaLLMAgentSkills. It costs 96 tokens per session (557 once invoked), scanned A, original, Unlicense.

A guide to building user interfaces in Julia, from small command-line scripts to installable apps, terminal displays, live text widgets, and Makie plot recipes. Makie is Julia’s plotting system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add command-line commands, options, subcommands, styled terminal reports, interactive terminal screens, or custom Makie plots to Julia projects.
Why use it?
It helps you choose an interface approach that matches the task and keeps user-interface code separate from the underlying logic.

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

build-julia-interfaces 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 11d 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

Build Julia Interfaces

Start with the smallest interface that meets the user-facing contract. Keep domain logic in ordinary functions and make each interface a thin adapter.

Route the Task

Open only the references required by the task.

Apply These Defaults

  1. For one small command, use a plain Julia function plus Base @main on Julia 1.11+.
  2. Use a Pkg app only on Julia 1.12+ when package installation is part of the requirement and the project accepts that Pkg app support is currently experimental.
  3. Add a CLI framework only for meaningful parsing, help, completion, or subcommand needs. Keep Comonicon for compatible existing projects; do not make it the default.
  4. Use plain text first, Term renderables second, and a Term live app only when keyboard interaction or continuously updated layout is required.
  5. Use PrettyTables, via handle-julia-data, for ordinary tabular reports. Use Term.Tables.Table only inside a Term composition.
  6. Target Makie 0.24's ComputeGraph for new reactive recipes. Do not copy pre-0.24 Observable mutation patterns into new code.
  7. Test pure interface logic with explicit argument vectors and IOBuffers. Avoid elaborate mocks; add a small end-to-end smoke test only where the installed command contract matters.

For Cmd, environment, pipeline, process-I/O, deadlock, task, or thread details, use orchestrate-julia-workloads, especially its references/commands-and-processes.md file.

Files

What ships with it

5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
