find-bugs

find-bugs is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from minghinmatthewlam/agent-guards. It costs 48 tokens per session (403 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only code-review skill for finding important, likely correctness bugs and edge cases in an existing codebase. It traces how code, tests, state changes, and failure paths behave.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect a repository or subsystem for bugs, overlooked edge cases, and incorrect behaviour, with evidence and a proposed direction for fixes.
Why use it?
It helps uncover real failure modes and prioritise findings by impact and confidence before anyone changes the code.

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

find-bugs 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 5d 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.

What it actually says

Find Bugs

Understand the real behavior before judging it. Trace relevant entrypoints, callers, tests, state transitions, invariants, and failure paths.

Investigate

  • Prioritize high-confidence, high-impact findings. When impact and confidence are similar, favor lower-complexity fixes, but do not hide a severe bug because its fix is complex.
  • Explore adaptively. Use subagents when they materially improve coverage, keep their scopes distinct, and consolidate their findings centrally.
  • Verify consequential findings with a focused reproduction, test, or runtime probe when practical.
  • Remain read-only unless the user asks for fixes.

Report Findings

For each material finding:

  • put priority, expected fix complexity, finding confidence percentage, and fix confidence percentage in the heading so they are immediately scannable, for example P1 — [Medium fix, 98% finding confidence, 90% fix confidence] Cache entries are not isolated;
  • state the proposed fix direction that the fix estimates refer to;
  • state the expected impact of the fix and explain material risk, blast radius, trade-offs, or unknowns behind the fix confidence.

Include enough of the following to substantiate it:

  • affected files and symbols;
  • trigger or edge case;
  • expected versus actual behavior;
  • user or system impact;
  • concrete code, test, or runtime evidence;

Keep simple findings compact; omit fields that do not add clarity.

Only call something a bug when the execution path and expected contract support that conclusion. Separate verified bugs from plausible investigation leads. Do not report style preferences, intentional trade-offs, or unrealistic edge cases as correctness bugs.

Files

What ships with it

1 file 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.

find-bugs is a skill published in the GitHub repository minghinmatthewlam/agent-guards (39 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 403 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 2026-08-30.
