Resource Naming And Tagging

Resource Naming And Tagging is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from niels-emmer/myace. It costs 37 tokens per session (967 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A naming and tagging template for cloud infrastructure resources. Tags are labels that record what a resource belongs to, who owns it, what it costs, and whether it can be switched off.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating, renaming, or reviewing cloud resources such as virtual machines, databases, storage, secrets, and functions.
Why use it?
It prevents unnamed or inconsistently named resources that are difficult to find, manage, charge back, or remove safely.

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

Resource Naming And Tagging 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 9d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 56 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Purpose

Give every resource a name and a set of tags that let anyone — not just the person who created it — answer "what is this, who owns it, what does it cost, and can we turn it off" without having to ask around. This is the concrete template behind the "Consistent Naming And Tagging" rule.

When to use it

Any time you're scaffolding a new resource, renaming an existing one to bring it into line, or reviewing a plan/diff for naming and tagging consistency.

Naming convention

Compose resource names from fixed segments, in a fixed order, separated by a single consistent delimiter (hyphen is the safest default — some resource types don't allow underscores or dots):

<resource-type-abbreviation>-<workload>-<environment>-<region>[-<instance>]
  • resource-type-abbreviation — a short, consistent code for what the resource is (e.g. vm, sql, st for storage, kv for a secret/key vault, func for a function app). Pick one abbreviation per resource type and never vary it.
  • workload — the application or system the resource belongs to, short and stable (e.g. billing, checkout, ingest). This is usually the most important segment for grouping resources in cost/ownership views.
  • environmentdev, test, stage, prod (or your project's equivalent set — pick one fixed vocabulary and don't let synonyms like production/prd/prod coexist).
  • region — a short code for the deployed region (provider-specific, e.g. eus for East US, weu for West Europe, use1 for AWS us-east-1). Omit only if the resource is genuinely global/region-less.
  • instance (optional) — a numeric or short suffix when more than one of the same resource exists in the same workload/environment/region (-01, -02).

Adjust casing and allowed characters to whatever the specific resource type permits (some cloud resource types disallow hyphens or force lowercase) — the segment order and content is what stays constant across providers and resource types, not the exact character set.
