apexyard: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/onboard/SKILL.md

onboard is a skill for Claude Code from me2resh/apexyard. It costs 43 tokens per session (5,182 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided first-run flow for a new ApexYard project or for taking over an existing one. It explains available actions and leads you through a first useful task, such as filing a real ticket.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to learn the project’s available tools, choose a new-project or handover path, and complete an initial setup or feature task with guidance.
Why use it?
It removes the guesswork from starting work in an unfamiliar project. It also makes the difference between starting fresh and taking over existing work explicit.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Tool Misuse · line 441
    Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).
    Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.

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

onboard 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 7d 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.

/onboard — Guided First-Run Onboarding

This is increment 1 of the guided-onboarding walking skeleton (technical design: docs/technical-designs/onboarding-increment-1.md, ticket #910), now layered with increment 2's depth adaptivity (technical design: docs/technical-designs/onboarding-increment-2.md § D2/D7, ticket #914). /onboard is a thin orchestrator + router, not a replacement for /setup or /handover — it sequences those two skills (plus /feature) behind a capability tour and an explicit branch. It never edits /setup, /handover, or /feature; their direct and scripted behaviour stays byte-for-byte unchanged (see AgDR-0097).

This flow now renders in one of two depth modes — terse or guided — off a single shared session marker, not a forked skill (US-5/FR-6). Terse renders every step exactly as increment 1 did (byte-for-byte identical output — NFR Backward-compat). Guided adds one short "why this matters" framing sentence after each major step. Depth mode changes only explanatory narration — it never changes which gate fires, which approval is required, or any role boundary (the "presentation only" invariant, mechanically guarded by .claude/hooks/tests/test_depth_mode.sh's invariant case). See Step 3.5 below for derivation, and "Depth mode override + transparency" for the mid-session override (FR-6) and the "what mode am I in?" affordance (FR-9).

The per-term teach-in-context glossary + just-in-time asides (#913) are now wired into this flow. In guided mode, the first time this skill uses one of the five core terms — issue/ticket, PR, merge, branch, CI — toward the adopter, it weaves in a short inline parenthetical explaining it, once per term per session (design § D3). See "Just-in-time glossary asides" below for the mechanism. Terse mode sees zero asides — this is structural, not a formatting choice (the same $mode gate Step 3.5 derives). The ambient any-session lookup + full /tutorial glossary render (#915) is still a sibling ticket, not yet built as of this ticket — asking "what's a merge?" outside a guided /onboard run isn't wired up yet.

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.
