anst-guide

anst-guide is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from marcellourbani/vscode_abap_remote_fs. It costs 118 tokens per session (1,002 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for using SAP transaction ANST, a tool that records which enhancement points run while an SAP transaction or program executes. It explains how to export that record to an Excel file for analysis.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to capture enhancement traces for SAP transactions or programs, save the results as .xlsx files, and hand existing exports to an enhancement-analysis step.
Why use it?
It provides runtime evidence of the enhancements a test must cover, including ones that static code inspection may miss. It also ensures the trace is collected before related test cases are created.

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

anst-guide 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 9d 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.

ANST Guide — Collect the Enhancement Trace

For bounded, self-contained support work, use sap-task-helper with explicit inputs, allowed writes, and an output contract.

Non-negotiable execution gate

When ANST analysis is required for the target, its trace, analyser result, and the resulting test cases are recorded prerequisites. The abapfs_run_playwright_tests tool verifies them and will reject every affected case if any requirement was skipped, deferred, left missing, stale, incomplete, or unverified. Creating a spec in a later phase cannot bypass this validation.

Workflow

Walk the user through capturing a runtime enhancement trace using SAP transaction ANST.

Why ANST? It captures every enhancement point actually executed at runtime, regardless of nesting depth — the definitive method for large standard transactions (ME21N, VA01, MIGO, etc.) where static analysis under-reports.

If the user already has an .xlsx exported from the ANST Customer Code screen, do not repeat the collection workflow; delegate analysis of that file directly to the anst-enhancement-analyser agent.


Step 0 — Standalone bootstrap

  1. Call abapfs_get_test_folder first. Treat the returned absolute path as <TEST_FOLDER>; never infer it from the workspace or a prior chat. If unset, ask the user to run "ABAP FS: Enable SAP UI Testing Features".
  2. Confirm the target transaction/program from the current request. If omitted, inspect <TEST_FOLDER>/tests/*/test-cases/_index.md; ask if more than one candidate exists.
  3. Call abapfs_get_connected_systems and confirm the exact connectionId where the trace will be recorded. Ask only if ambiguous.
  4. Keep the exported trace under <TEST_FOLDER>/tests/<PROGRAM>/sources/anst/ with a descriptive timestamped .xlsx filename so a new analyze-and-plan chat can find it from disk.

Step 1 — Open ANST

Tell the user to go to transaction ANST (Automated Note Search & Customer Code Detection Tool).

Step 2 — Enter the target
