ck:cook

An end-to-end workflow for implementing coding tasks, from understanding the request through planning, writing code, and testing. It can choose different workflows based on the task.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement features, execute an existing plan, research and plan a change, run work in parallel, or select whether testing and approval steps are included.
Why use it?
It organizes feature work and fixes into a repeatable process, helping keep implementation focused and checked.

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

ck:cook 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 2d 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.

Cook - Smart Feature Implementation

End-to-end implementation with automatic workflow detection.

Principles: YAGNI, KISS, DRY | Token efficiency | Concise reports

Usage

$cook <natural language task OR plan path>

IMPORTANT: If no flag is provided, the skill will use the interactive mode by default for the workflow.

Optional flags to select the workflow mode:

  • --interactive: Full workflow with user input (default)
  • --fast: Skip research, scout→plan→code
  • --parallel: Multi-agent execution
  • --no-test: Skip testing step
  • --auto: Auto-approve all steps

Example:

$cook "Add user authentication to the app" --fast
$cook path/to/plan.md --auto

Smart Intent Detection

Input Pattern Detected Mode Behavior
Path to plan.md or phase-*.md code Execute existing plan
Contains "fast", "quick" fast Skip research, scout→plan→code
Contains "trust me", "auto" auto Auto-approve all steps
Lists 3+ features OR "parallel" parallel Multi-agent execution
Contains "no test", "skip test" no-test Skip testing step
Default interactive Full workflow with user input

See references/intent-detection.md for detection logic.

Workflow Overview

[Intent Detection] → [Research?] → [Review] → [Plan] → [Review] → [Implement] → [Review] → [Test?] → [Review] → [Finalize]

Default (non-auto): Stops at [Review] gates for human approval before each major step. Auto mode (--auto): Skips human review gates, implements all phases continuously. Task tracking: Use the available task-tracking tools when the runtime exposes them. If task tools are unavailable, keep an explicit checklist in the response and plan files instead.

Mode Research Testing Review Gates Phase Progression
interactive User approval at each step One at a time
auto Auto if score≥9.5 All at once (no stops)
fast User approval at each step One at a time
parallel Optional User approval at each step Parallel groups
no-test User approval at each step One at a time
code User approval at each step Per plan

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.

ck:cook is a skill published in the GitHub repository manhvann/codexkit (88 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 19 tokens to every session and 1,254 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-30.
