enforce-workflow-constraints

enforce-workflow-constraints is a skill for Codex from OutlineDriven/outline-driven-development. It costs 56 tokens per session (885 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A read-only checkpoint that loads workflow rules before an action and checks them again at important boundaries. It refuses to proceed when the rules are missing or cannot be read.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to evaluate whether a proposed action, path, proposal, or merge is allowed by a specified constraint set.
Why use it?
It prevents workflows from silently continuing under unclear, unavailable, or violated constraints.

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

enforce-workflow-constraints 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.

Enforce workflow constraints

Contract

Field Bound contract
Trigger Any bounded workflow starts, or reaches an action, path, proposal, or merge boundary
Authority Read-only; no file, VCS, credential, paid, published, deployed, or remote mutation. Permits, narrows, or refuses the pending action in chat output and records the refusal reason; never proceeds on an unread constraint set
Side effect Chat output only; permits, narrows, or refuses the pending action and records the refusal reason. Never mutates files, state, or remote targets
Done Constraints were loaded before the first action and re-evaluated at every boundary; an unreadable constraint set produced refusal, not default-allow

Inputs

  • The constraint set that bounds the workflow. It must be supplied or locatable before the first action. If it is unreadable, missing, or too ambiguous to enforce, refuse the workflow.
  • The pending action, path, proposal, or merge at each boundary. It must be supplied at evaluation time.
  • Optional: the prior verdict sequence for continuity across boundaries within the same workflow.

Procedure

  1. Before the first action of any bounded workflow, load the constraint set that bounds it. If the constraint set is unreadable, missing, or ambiguous to the point of being unenforceable, refuse the workflow and record the refusal reason. Do not default-allow. Done when: the constraint set is loaded and enforceable, or the workflow is refused with a recorded reason.
  2. At every action boundary, re-evaluate the loaded constraints against the pending action. Permit the action if it satisfies every constraint; narrow it to a compliant form if a narrower action would satisfy them; refuse it and record the refusal reason if no compliant form exists. Done when: the pending action is permitted, narrowed, or refused with a recorded verdict.
  3. At every path boundary, re-evaluate the constraints against the chosen execution path. Permit, narrow, or refuse as in step 2. Done when: the chosen path is permitted, narrowed, or refused with a recorded verdict.
  4. At every proposal boundary, re-evaluate the constraints against the proposed change. Permit, narrow, or refuse as in step 2. Done when: the proposed change is permitted, narrowed, or refused with a recorded verdict.
  5. At every merge boundary, re-evaluate the constraints against the merge target and content. Permit, narrow, or refuse as in step 2. Done when: the merge target and content are permitted, narrowed, or refused with a recorded verdict.
  6. Record every refusal with its reason in chat output. If the constraint set may have changed since the last load, reload it before re-evaluating; never proceed on a stale or unread constraint set. Done when: every refusal is recorded with its reason and no stale constraint set was used.

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.
