coding_skill

coding_skill is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Negai-ai/AgentClaw. It costs 52 tokens per session (4,550 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A coding guide for inspecting, editing, testing, refactoring, and validating project source code inside a configured project directory.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for code searches, bug fixes, refactors, file moves, syntax checks, automated tests, and validation.
Why use it?
It provides a repeatable process for making small, verifiable code changes when the project context is limited.

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

coding_skill 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 3d 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.

Coding Skill (Primary Playbook)

This SKILL.md is the default guide for common coding tasks. Focus on reliable tool usage and verifiable code changes. Load references/* only when needed.

1) Scope and Boundary

  • This skill covers generic coding work: discover, read, edit, refactor, and validate code.
  • This skill is tool-centric. Keep guidance about product/domain-specific implementation out of the main flow.
  • All coding-tool paths are resolved under project_dir. Paths outside project_dir are invalid.
  • Use minimal edits first; escalate to broad rewrites only when partial edits are unstable.
  • Do not introduce hardcoded secrets, machine-specific absolute paths, or environment-specific install commands in generated code.

2) Zero-Context Execution Flow (Default)

When repository context is limited, use this fixed sequence:

  1. search_code to locate files/snippets.
  2. Run quick environment preflight for path/tool consistency:
    • confirm project_dir-relative target paths
    • avoid bare pip; prefer interpreter-scoped install commands when needed
  3. read_code to load exact edit context.
  4. Apply smallest safe edit (replace_in_file or update_code).
  5. For Python edits:
    • If you used write_code: syntax is already validated (pre-write check). Do NOT call syntax_check in the same tool call — the file won't exist yet when parallel tools run. Only use syntax_check separately for replace_in_file / update_code edits.
    • python -m py_compile <changed_file>.py (optional, for import-level validation; on Windows you may also use py -3 -m py_compile)
  6. If syntax fails, patch the failing region with local edits first (replace_in_file / update_code), then re-run checks.
  7. Re-read changed region (read_code) when ambiguity/count errors occurred.
  8. Report changed files, validations, and unresolved risks.

Prefer not to skip to later steps when an earlier step fails.

3) Tool Contract (Default)

3.1 search_code

Purpose: text/regex discovery in project files. Returns file:line:col: matched_text for each match.

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.

coding_skill is a skill published in the GitHub repository Negai-ai/AgentClaw (340 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 52 tokens to every session and 4,550 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
