reuse-scripts

reuse-scripts is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from playcanvas/create-playcanvas. It costs 39 tokens per session (635 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for finding and reusing production scripts included with the PlayCanvas game engine before writing custom behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect installed engine scripts, find matching official examples, and adapt them for features such as movement, cameras, or other game behavior.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of copying outdated examples or replacing engine behavior with an implementation that misses important lifecycle or input details.

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

reuse-scripts 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 4d 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 — 60 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Engine scripts

The installed playcanvas package ships production scripts under scripts/esm/**. Discover the current set rather than maintaining a stale list:

rg 'static scriptName =' node_modules/playcanvas/scripts/esm \
  | sed "s|.*/scripts/esm/||; s|:.*static scriptName = ['\"]|  ->  |; s|['\"].*||" \
  | sort

Read the selected file for its named export, @attribute properties, and defaults. Not every module is a Script; the parsers below scripts/esm/parsers are plain classes registered with a resource handler instead.

Only import from scripts/esm/**. Legacy sibling directories depend on the global Engine namespace. After selecting a script, use find-examples to locate its matching versioned Engine example.

Use a relevant shipped script as the default implementation. If it cannot own the whole feature, preserve its input signs, angular damping, bounds, and lifecycle invariants in the custom portion instead of replacing them from memory.

Reproduce the reference integration

Treat the selected script source and its closest official example as complementary references:

  1. Read the source for exports, properties, defaults, fallbacks, required components, and lifecycle.
  2. Read the example for assets, entity references, mesh requirements, layer ordering, scene settings, and render-pipeline setup.
  3. Reproduce the smallest working baseline before customizing it. Preserve defaults that are not deliberately changed, and tune one property group at a time.
  4. After a rendered frame, fail on console, shader, or missing-asset diagnostics. Exercise the behavior with real input where applicable and inspect returned screenshots from representative views at the final backbuffer density.
  5. Compare the result with the official example when visual quality matters. Keep iterating or report the gap; a running fallback is not proof of correct integration.

If no matching example exists, state that and derive the integration from installed source instead of inventing it from memory.

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.

reuse-scripts is a skill published in the GitHub repository playcanvas/create-playcanvas (53 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 39 tokens to every session and 635 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
