code

code is a skill for Claude Code from quay/ai-helpers. It costs 37 tokens per session (442 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A coding workflow that reads project rules, implements a requested change, runs the relevant quality checks, commits it, and starts the pull-request workflow.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for code changes that need project-specific guidance, pre-commit checks, a correctly formatted commit, and a follow-up pull request.
Why use it?
It reduces mistakes caused by ignoring local conventions, migration procedures, formatting checks, tests, or commit requirements.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: names the AskUserQuestion tool; mentions AGENTS.md.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is Bash(bash .claude/scripts/format-and-lint.sh *).

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

code 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 2d 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.

What it actually says

Implement Changes

Implement code changes following project conventions.

Step 1: Read Conventions

Read the project's AGENTS.md for universal conventions, then load area-specific docs as identified in /start.

Step 2: Implement

Follow AGENTS.md conventions. Common rules:

  • Use project-standard exception types
  • Follow existing import ordering patterns
  • Never hand-write migration files — use the project's migration tool first
  • No secrets in code

Step 3: Quality Checks

Pre-commit hooks run automatically on git commit. To run manually:

bash .claude/scripts/format-and-lint.sh            # staged files
bash .claude/scripts/format-and-lint.sh --all-files # all files

Run relevant tests per the project's test commands (check AGENTS.md for make targets).

Step 4: Commit

Format:

<subsystem>: <what changed> (<TICKET-KEY>)

<why this change was made>

Pre-commit hooks run on commit — fix any failures and re-commit.

Step 5: Continue — invoke /pr immediately

Do not stop after committing. Invoke the /pr skill immediately to create the pull request. The full workflow is a single uninterrupted pipeline:

/code  →  /pr  →  /poll <PR#>

Only pause if there is a genuine blocker that requires a decision from the user.

Changes

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.
