code-antipatterns

code-antipatterns is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from laurigates/claude-plugins. It costs 45 tokens per session (2,104 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Analyze a codebase for anti-patterns using ast-grep. Use when finding magic numbers, console.logs, var usage, excessive any, eval/innerHTML security issues, or deep nesting.

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

code-antipatterns 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 today.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/tests/test-rules-project.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Running a parallel anti-pattern scan and producing a report Looking up the full YAML rule catalog → see REFERENCE.md
Specifically targeting empty catches, floating promises, or || true Use the dedicated scanner → code-hidden-failures --track errors
Finding success-on-empty / silent degradation patterns Use the dedicated scanner → code-hidden-failures --track degradation

Context

  • Analysis path: $1 (defaults to current directory if not specified)
  • JS/TS files: !find . -type f \( -name "*.js" -o -name "*.ts" -o -name "*.jsx" -o -name "*.tsx" \)
  • Vue files: !find . -name "*.vue"
  • Python files: !find . -name "*.py"

Your Task

Perform comprehensive anti-pattern analysis. The mechanical detection is one deterministic ast-grep scan over a shipped rule project — you do not re-type sg -p '…' patterns and do not fan out agents just to run them. Your job is the judgment: severity triage, recommendations, and fix planning on top of the scan's structured findings.

Step 1: Run the deterministic scan

The detection catalog lives as an ast-grep rule project in rules/ (one *.yml per pattern under rules/lib/, each with a valid/invalid test fixture in rules/tests/). Run the whole catalog in one pass:

ast-grep scan -c ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/rules/sgconfig.yml --json=compact <path>

Each JSON finding carries ruleId, file, range (line/column), message, and the matched text. Parse this — it is the raw finding set for every category below. The rules cover: empty catch, console.log, var, eval/new Function, innerHTML/outerHTML, as any / : any annotations, magic-number timers, Vue props mutation, Python mutable defaults, bare except, global, and type() ==.

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.

code-antipatterns is a skill published in the GitHub repository laurigates/claude-plugins (57 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 2,104 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-09-03.
