auto

auto is a skill for Claude Code from ryanczak/rexyMCP. It costs 59 tokens per session (3,764 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An opt-in automation loop for the rexyMCP architect/executor workflow. It repeatedly plans a phase, sends it for implementation, reviews the result, and responds to failures until a defined stopping point.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run a milestone hands-off, with automatic phase drafting, dispatch, review, escalation, and a final progress report.
Why use it?
It lets a project move through multiple work phases without requiring a person to pause between every phase, while retaining reviews and stop conditions.

    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

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

auto 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.

Auto Skill — the opt-in autonomous loop

This skill drives the architect/executor cycle hands-off across a whole milestone: it drafts the next phase, dispatches it, reviews the result, and escalates or re-dispatches on failure — cycling until the milestone closes or a stop condition fires. It exists so a user who wants a hands-off run gets one, without giving up any review rigor.

The one invariant: compose, never fork

This skill composes the existing four skills. It does not reimplement them.

Loop step The skill it invokes
draft the next phase architect (§3 phase-doc authoring)
dispatch a phase dispatch
review a completed phase review
decide an escalation lever escalate

The loop adds only sequencing, the per-phase assist budget, journaling, the five stop conditions, and the loop report. It does not restate the Definition of Done, the bug-report template, the escalation levers, or the status-flip mechanics — each composed skill owns those, and running that skill's procedure verbatim is what keeps an autonomous run identical to an interactive one.

A behavior difference between an interactive run of a step and its autonomous run is a bug, not a feature. If you ever find yourself writing "in auto mode we do X differently," stop — that is the anti-pattern this skill exists to avoid.

Read these first

Before any action:

  1. Read <repo>/docs/dev/NEXT.md (the active-phase pointer) and <repo>/docs/dev/WORKFLOW.md § "Opt-in autonomous loop (off by default)" and § "What Executors Never Decide" (the human-territory list this loop stops on).
  2. Read all four composed skills — architect, dispatch, review, escalate — so you invoke their procedures unchanged.
  3. Read <repo>/rexymcp.toml: confirm [executor] + [commands] are present (bootstrap done), and read [escalation] max_assists (the per-phase assist budget, default 3) and [architect] dispatch_model / review_model (the role models for delegation; unset = inherit the session model).

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.
