casing-law

casing-law is a skill for Claude Code from oborchers/fractional-cto. It costs 63 tokens per session (3,553 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A naming rule for using consistent letter casing for identifiers such as variables, functions, classes, and constants. The convention changes by programming language and by the kind of identifier.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps choose and enforce casing conventions, including snake_case, camelCase, PascalCase, and uppercase constant names.
Why use it?
Mixed styles make code less predictable and can hide mistakes when similar names look different. Consistent casing makes identifiers easier to scan and use correctly.

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

casing-law 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.

Casing Is Law, Not Preference

Mixed casing in a codebase is not a style disagreement. It is a defect. When getUserName sits next to get_user_email in the same file, the reader cannot predict the shape of the next function. Predictability is the foundation of readable code. Every language has established casing conventions. Follow them absolutely, enforce them mechanically, and treat violations the same way you treat failing tests.

The Universal Casing Table

Every identifier in your codebase falls into one of these categories. The casing is determined by the language and the identifier's role. There is no room for personal preference.

Python

Identifier Type Convention Example
Variables snake_case user_count, max_retries
Functions snake_case fetch_active_users, calculate_tax_rate
Method names snake_case def validate_email(self)
Function parameters snake_case def create_order(customer_id, line_items)
Classes PascalCase UserProfile, PaymentProcessor
Exceptions PascalCase InvalidTokenError, RateLimitExceeded
Constants UPPER_SNAKE_CASE MAX_RETRY_COUNT, DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_SECONDS
Modules (files) snake_case user_profile.py, payment_processor.py
Packages (directories) snake_case (short, no underscores preferred) payments, userprofiles
Type aliases PascalCase UserId = str, OrderItems = list[LineItem]
Enum members UPPER_SNAKE_CASE class Status(Enum): ACTIVE = "active"

Python enforces this by convention (PEP 8), and tools like ruff flag violations automatically.

TypeScript

Identifier Type Convention Example
Variables camelCase userCount, maxRetries
Functions camelCase fetchActiveUsers, calculateTaxRate
Method names camelCase validateEmail()
Function parameters camelCase function createOrder(customerId, lineItems)
Classes PascalCase UserProfile, PaymentProcessor
Interfaces PascalCase UserProfile, OrderRequest
Type aliases PascalCase UserId, OrderItems
Enums PascalCase (name), PascalCase (members) enum OrderStatus { Pending, Shipped }
Constants UPPER_SNAKE_CASE MAX_RETRY_COUNT, DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_MS
React components PascalCase UserProfileCard, PaymentForm
Hooks camelCase with use prefix useUserProfile, usePaymentForm
Files (general) kebab-case user-profile.ts, payment-processor.ts
Files (React components) PascalCase UserProfileCard.tsx
Files (tests) Match source + .test user-profile.test.ts

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.
