cdt

cdt is a skill for Claude Code from rube-de/cc-skills. It costs 96 tokens per session (2,099 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for coordinating several coding agents through planning, implementation, testing, and review. It also includes a test-first process for fixing well-defined bugs.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps plan features, build approved changes, run tests, review code, and fix reproducible bugs using TDD, which means writing a failing test before changing the code.
Why use it?
It divides software work into clear roles and stages, reducing the chance that design, coding, tests, or review are skipped.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to medium

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • medium Excessive Agency · line 21
    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

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

cdt 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 8d 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.

Claude Dev Team

Multi-agent development workflow with five modes. Pick one based on the user's needs:

Mode When to use
plan Need architecture/design before coding
dev Have an approved plan, ready to implement
full End-to-end with user approval gate between plan and dev
auto End-to-end without approval gate
bugfix Well-specified, reproducible bug (root cause may be unknown) — TDD fix cycle

Before executing any mode, read the relevant workflow file:

Architecture

Plan Phase (plan/full/auto)     Dev Phase (dev/full/auto)       Bugfix Phase (bugfix)
  Lead (You)                      Lead (You)                      Lead (You)
  ├── architect  [teammate]       ├── developer    [teammate]     ├── tester     [teammate]
  ├── product-manager [teammate]      ├── code-tester  [teammate]     ├── developer  [teammate]
  └── researcher [subagent]       ├── qa-tester    [teammate]     ├── reviewer   [teammate]
                                  ├── reviewer     [teammate]     └── researcher [subagent]
                                  └── researcher   [subagent]
         │                                │
         └──── plan.md (handoff) ─────────┘

Teammates message each other directly (Architect teammate↔PM teammate, Developer teammate↔Code-tester teammate, Developer teammate↔QA-tester teammate, Developer teammate↔Reviewer teammate). In bugfix mode: Tester teammate↔Developer teammate, Reviewer teammate↔Developer teammate. Researcher is a subagent — Lead relays results.

Directives mechanism (plan phase): Lead → teammate control signals (e.g. auto_task_baseline, council_review) live in a per-run sidecar JSON file at .dev/cdt/plans/plan-$TIMESTAMP.directives.json, not in prompt prose. See references/directives-schema.md for schema and lifecycle.

What ships with it

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.

cdt is a skill published in the GitHub repository rube-de/cc-skills (10 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 96 tokens to every session and 2,099 once invoked, about $0.0005 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 2026-08-31.
