project-engineering

project-engineering is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from quattro/jax-numerics-agent. It costs 24 tokens per session (3,784 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Engineering guidance for JAX and Equinox projects, which are Python tools for numerical and machine-learning code. It covers stable APIs, documentation, continuous integration, testing, and data saving.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when designing, implementing, testing, documenting, or reviewing JAX/Equinox software.
Why use it?
It provides checklists and example snippets for making scientific code easier to maintain and verify.

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

project-engineering 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 2mo 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.

Companion checklists

Apply these checklists when using this skill.

Repo-local paths

  • checklists/project_engineering_checklist.md
  • checklists/testing_checklist.md

Global install paths (scripts/install_skills_with_assets.sh)

  • ~/.codex/skills/assets/checklists/project_engineering_checklist.md
  • ~/.codex/skills/assets/checklists/testing_checklist.md

Checklist workflow

  • Before implementation: open the relevant companion checklist(s) and scope the work against them.
  • During implementation: keep checklist items aligned with code/design decisions.
  • Before completion: re-run the checklist and explicitly document any intentionally unchecked item.

Companion snippets

Use these snippets as implementation starters when they match the task.

Repo-local paths

  • snippets/cli_skeleton.py
  • snippets/pyproject_minimal.toml
  • snippets/test_jvp_finite_difference.py

Global install paths (scripts/install_skills_with_assets.sh)

  • ~/.codex/skills/assets/snippets/cli_skeleton.py
  • ~/.codex/skills/assets/snippets/pyproject_minimal.toml
  • ~/.codex/skills/assets/snippets/test_jvp_finite_difference.py

Snippet workflow

  • Before implementation: start from the closest snippet and align it with repository conventions.
  • During implementation: keep public API shape, docs style, and error semantics consistent with this skill.
  • Before completion: remove placeholders and verify snippet-derived code is fully integrated.

Public API stability

Rule: Keep API structure stable and explicit

  • Do: Preserve return shapes/fields and document result codes/statuses.
  • Don’t: Change return structures or error semantics without deprecation.
  • Why: Scientific workflows rely on stable interfaces.
  • Example:
# Return a structured result: value + result + stats/state
return Solution(value=out, result=result, stats=stats, state=state)
  • Allowed break: Major version bump with migration guide.

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.

project-engineering is a skill published in the GitHub repository quattro/jax-numerics-agent (9 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 3,784 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
