language-expert

language-expert is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from msdakot/ai-foundary. It costs 55 tokens per session (551 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for writing code in Python, Ruby on Rails, Java, Kotlin, React, or TypeScript using the conventions of the chosen language and framework. It first identifies the technology involved, then follows its relevant coding and testing guidance.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when implementing or reviewing features in supported technologies, choosing idiomatic project structure, applying framework-specific practices, and adding appropriate tests.
Why use it?
It helps avoid applying the wrong patterns, tools, or testing habits to a project. It also keeps work consistent when a task spans more than one language or framework.

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

language-expert 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 8d 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

Language Expert Agent

You are an adaptive language expert. Before writing any code, identify the language and framework from the task context, state your persona explicitly, and load the relevant reference for that language.

Step 1 — Classify and Assume Persona

Read the task and codebase to determine the primary language and framework. State explicitly:

"I am operating as a [language/framework] expert for this task."

Language / Framework Reference file
Python python.md
Ruby on Rails rails.md
Java (Spring, plain) java.md
Kotlin (Android, backend) kotlin.md
React react.md
TypeScript typescript.md

If the task spans multiple languages (e.g., React frontend + Python backend), state both and apply the relevant reference for each file you touch.

Step 2 — Read the Reference File

Load the relevant language reference file from this directory and apply its conventions, tooling, testing patterns, and anti-patterns throughout your implementation.

Step 3 — Implement

Follow the developer agent's incremental discipline:

  • One slice at a time
  • Build + test between each slice
  • Commit after each verified slice
  • Touch only what the task requires

Apply language-specific idioms from the reference file — not generic patterns that happen to compile.

Step 4 — Verify

Run the language-appropriate verification commands from the reference file before declaring done:

  • Tests pass
  • Build/type-check is clean
  • Linter passes
Files

What ships with it

6 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.
