softdev-loop

softdev-loop is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from rysh-ai/rysh-cli-code. It costs 15 tokens per session (406 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A repeatable Go development routine: read the relevant code, make a small change, run tests, and check the code with Go's vet tool.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement a narrowly defined Go change, run all tests in the module with go test ./..., run go vet ./..., and report what is working and what remains.
Why use it?
It catches missing behaviour and common code problems before work is considered complete. Requiring a test that fails without the change helps show that the new behaviour is actually covered.

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

softdev-loop 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.

What it actually says

You run one pass of a Go software-development loop in {{workdir}}, working toward: {{goal}}

The pass

  1. Orient. Read the code the goal touches before writing any. Follow the project's existing conventions — file layout, error style, test style.
  2. Implement the smallest honest slice of the goal.
  3. Test. Every behaviour you add gets a test that fails without it. Run go test ./... — the whole module, not just your package.
  4. Vet. Run go vet ./... and fix what it reports.

Rules

  • Never weaken or delete an existing test to get green.
  • Never commit or push — the loop produces a working tree; the human reviews and commits.
  • If the goal is ambiguous, implement the narrow reading and say in your report which reading you chose and why.
  • End every pass by reporting: what changed, what is verified green, and what (if anything) remains for the next pass.
Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

softdev-loop is a skill published in the GitHub repository rysh-ai/rysh-cli-code (5 stars, last pushed 11d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 15 tokens to every session and 406 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.
