mashup

mashup is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from NickCrew/Claude-Cortex. It costs 15 tokens per session (342 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An ideation method that combines patterns from unrelated fields to create new product or user-experience concepts.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to borrow ideas from areas such as finance, gaming, or health, then sketch concepts, risks, and first experiments.
Why use it?
It helps when familiar approaches feel repetitive or the team is stuck in one way of thinking.

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

mashup 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.

What it actually says

/collaboration:mashup

Use when you want fresh UX/GT ideas by blending unrelated domains.

Inputs

  • Topic/problem
  • Domains to borrow from (flags or let it randomize)
  • Any constraints to respect

Steps

  1. Pick 2–3 orthogonal domains (fintech, gaming, health, etc.).
  2. Lift 1–2 patterns per domain (loyalty loops, streaks, rituals, marketplace dynamics).
  3. Create 3 mashup concepts with user journey sketch, differentiator, risk, first experiment.
  4. Label one bold bet and one safe bet.
  5. Hand off to /ctx:plan or add Tasks for the experiments.

Output Template

### Domains & Patterns
### Mashup Concepts (3)
- Concept … (journey, differentiator, risk, first experiment)
### Bold Bet / Safe Bet
### Next Experiments

Pairings

  • Combine with /collaboration:assumption-buster to widen the idea pool.
  • Use /collaboration:concept-forge to score the mashups.

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.
