pero-ponte-sueter

pero-ponte-sueter is a skill for Claude Code from mcasillas17/mexican-mom. It costs 75 tokens per session (1,287 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A failure-handling checklist for code that crosses boundaries such as input, files, networks, data parsing, databases, concurrency, or application startup and shutdown.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing or reviewing integrations, parsers, persistence code, network calls, concurrent work, and lifecycle logic.
Why use it?
It prevents the happy path from hiding null values, malformed data, timeouts, partial results, and other failures. Each failure is either handled with a clear purpose or reported with its original cause.

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

pero-ponte-sueter 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 105 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pero ponte suéter

It is 35 degrees. Take it anyway — she is not planning for now, she is planning for later.

Rule

Code that crosses a boundary must account for the conditions that are not happening right now. Every boundary gets one of two treatments, chosen deliberately: handle the failure meaningfully, or let it fail loudly with the original cause attached.

There is no third option, and the third option is the one you will reach for. Catching a failure and continuing with a degraded value is worse than the crash it prevented, because the crash told you the truth and the fallback lies. The sweater is one layer, not five — a handler you cannot explain the purpose of is not protection, it is padding.

Procedure

Run steps 1–3 for the change you are making, then step 4 on everything you wrote.

1. Enumerate the boundaries this code actually touches. Not hypothetical ones — the lines you are writing. Find each row that applies.

Boundary What realistically goes wrong
Caller input, arguments, config Null, undefined, empty string, empty collection, zero, wrong type, out of range
Parsing, deserialization, formats Malformed, truncated, wrong encoding, unexpected schema, missing field, extra field
Network, RPC, external API Timeout, connection refused, non-2xx, partial body, rate limit, retry storm, slow success
Filesystem, I/O Missing path, permission denied, disk full, partial write, file changed mid-read
Persistence, database No rows, duplicate key, constraint violation, transaction rollback, stale read
Concurrency, async, queues Duplicated delivery, out-of-order arrival, race on shared state, cancellation, deadlock
Lifecycle Called before init, called after shutdown, resource already closed, cleanup on the error path

2. For each boundary, write down what can go wrong from that row — the realistic cases, not the exotic ones. A case you list and dismiss as impossible is fine; a case you never listed is the outage.

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.
