trace-first-starter: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/tfw-init/SKILL.md

tfw-init is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from saubakirov/trace-first-starter. It costs 49 tokens per session (256 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow command that sets up Trace-First Workflow in a project or repairs its existing coding-agent adapters. An adapter connects the workflow to a particular coding agent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for first-time setup, attaching or repairing workflow tooling, checking existing project configuration, and creating the setup records required by the workflow.
Why use it?
It provides the project-specific setup and checks needed before using the workflow, without resetting an already configured project.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions Codex.

This is saubakirov/trace-first-starter's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on trace-first-starter itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything trace-first-starter configures →

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

tfw-init 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 today.

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

/tfw-init

This repository skill implements the /tfw-init command.

Contract

  • Treat literal /tfw-init input as a command. Also accept tfw-init and matching natural-language requests.
  • If .tfw/ exists, read .tfw/workflows/init.md completely; if it is missing, obtain the framework source or explain the missing prerequisite instead of inventing files.
  • Enforce the Coordinator role lock: permit TFW setup/config, adapters, and the init task's RES/RF traces required by the workflow; forbid HL, TS, and code unrelated to TFW setup.
  • Follow the workflow's Read Contract. Root instructions are already active; do not independently preload common files.
  • Detect full init versus attach/repair before broad discovery, use templates at their gates, preserve configured state, and follow every interview, research, verification, close, and hard-stop gate.

Report created or updated files and project-specific assumptions requiring confirmation.

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.
