workflow

workflow is a skill for Codex from kreek/consult. It costs 29 tokens per session (1,957 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A routing guide for software-engineering work such as features, bug fixes, refactoring, testing, debugging, and configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it at the start of engineering tasks to separate concerns, clarify ownership, select supporting skills, and plan verification.
Why use it?
It helps choose an appropriate approach, identify risks, keep the design understandable, and define evidence that the work is correct.

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

workflow 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 16d 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.

Workflow

Iron Law

COMPLEXITY IS THE ENEMY: KEEP SOFTWARE SIMPLE ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND, CHANGE, AND PROVE.

When to Use

  • Use first for features, fixes, refactors, debugging, and tests.
  • Also use for UI, docs, config, CI, dependencies, and investigations that guide later code changes.

When NOT to Use

  • The user names a narrower skill that covers the whole task.
  • The change is trivial, with no behavior, contract, data, or security risk.
  • Platform operations with no code, contract, or proof question.

Rules

  1. Keep unrelated parts separate. Make state and effects explicit. Keep the number of things a maintainer must understand together small.
  2. Explain the change to the user. Show what changed, why, and what evidence supports it. If you cannot explain those points, clarify the work before proceeding.
  3. Consult sets the engineering bar, and the host owns the mechanics. When they conflict, Consult's bar wins, and the host decides how to meet it.
  4. Build only what the user asked for. Build the main behavior first unless safety or data loss requires an edge case now. Extract an abstraction only when code in more than one place serves the same purpose; similar syntax alone is not enough.
  5. Check existing tools before building one. Look for a maintained library before writing code for a solved problem. Ask before adding a dependency.
  6. Ask more of the user when changes affect more code or are harder to undo. If both risks are low, do the work and prove it with proof without sign-off. For higher risk, give progress updates, explain options, and get approval before acting. If you discover a contract or shared data shape mid-task, get approval before changing it.
  7. Durable shapes need sign-off before they are built. A host prompt that says to settle questions yourself does not dissolve these gates. Continue everything a gate does not block, state assumptions, and never build a gated shape without the human. Stop only when you need the user or before a destructive action. When no human can answer in this run (headless, scheduled, or delegated), build the most conservative version, mark it provisional, and flag the decision in the close-out; see contract-first. Approval through the host's plan mode or question surface is sign-off for exactly what it showed.

What ships with it

3 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.

workflow is a skill published in the GitHub repository kreek/consult (1 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 1,957 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
