aigd-concept

aigd-concept is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ProdaZhang/aigd. It costs 88 tokens per session (895 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A game-design planning skill for deciding what a new game is about and how its main systems fit together. It records the concept, core gameplay loop, target platform, intended players, and system dependencies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to shape a new game concept, repair its central gameplay loop, choose its platform and audience, and create the initial system list and dependency graph.
Why use it?
It turns early brainstorming into a shared project plan that can be revised as the idea develops. This helps prevent important systems or relationships from being missed.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is **Package contract**: install the whole `aigd` package (the orchestrator `aigd/`+`references/` and the 6 sub-skills (including aigd-ui-capture) placed at the sa.

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

aigd-concept 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 1mo 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 — 39 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AIGD · concept (brainstorming + top-level design) [minimal skeleton]

Package contract: install the whole aigd package (the orchestrator aigd/+references/ and the 6 sub-skills (including aigd-ui-capture) placed at the same level in this environment's skills directory, following the host agent, e.g. Claude Code's .claude/skills/), don't copy this skill alone — the body's ../aigd/references/ depends on aigd/ at the same level, copying it alone breaks the link.

Positioning

Phase 1. Diverge in discussion → converge into "what to make + which systems it's made of". Low-frequency but repeatedly revisable (deeper discussion will circle back to change the concept / platform / system list) — it writes the live spine, not a one-shot artifact.

Read / produce / write back

  • Read: existing spine (if any); ../aigd/references/methodology.md (the naming / numbering / spec parts).
  • Produce / write back (fill per template, see ../aigd/references/templates/):
    • project-charter.md (per project-charter.tpl.md): concept / core loop / pillars / platform / target users / project-specific conventions (naming / units / quality system…).
    • manifest.md (per manifest.tpl.md): system list + dependency graph + number-range pre-allocation + cross-layer index placeholders (Status = Draft).

Recipe

  1. Interview: core experience / core loop / design pillars / monetization / art direction; cut the weak directions.
  2. Split into systems: per the "system-splitting rules" below, fix boundaries → list the systems, draw the dependency graph (edge set), fix the build order; cycle detection → common types are registered first in the project layer (global spec) to break cycles (made concrete as proto/common.proto later at handoff). Also flag "emergent combinations" (those that only make sense when several systems are combined, e.g. combat = movement + skills + damage + AI) — register them as "combination points", leaving them for sync to do up-front integration design rather than patching them in afterward.
  3. Per template, write project-charter.md + manifest.md (one row per system, Status = Draft) + stand up the global-spec skeleton (enum / naming / unit placeholders).

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.

aigd-concept is a skill published in the GitHub repository ProdaZhang/aigd (2 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 88 tokens to every session and 895 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.
