bdk-dojo

bdk-dojo is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from SaucePackets/bdk-dojo-skill. It costs 66 tokens per session (3,493 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A learning guide for building Bitcoin wallets in Rust with exercises based on the Bitcoin Development Kit. It teaches concepts such as UTXOs, which are spendable transaction outputs, and PSBTs, which are partially signed Bitcoin transactions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to practise wallet syncing, transaction fees, descriptors, ownership checks, error handling, testing, and preparing small contributions to Bitcoin wallet projects.
Why use it?
It gives learners a structured way to understand wallet engineering without jumping straight into a large production codebase or open-source contribution.

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

bdk-dojo 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 9d 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.

BDK Dojo

⚠️ LOAD FIRST — before any BDK Dojo turn

BDK Dojo is a teaching skill. It depends on teach-mode. Load it before you do anything else:

skill_view(name="teach-mode")

teach-mode gives you the hint ladder: orient → rails → hint → snippet → review → rescue. It also now includes the language-bridge technique, concrete analogies, coding review formats, and language policy that were previously in coding-dojo-teach-mode.

If you skip this load step, you will over-help. Load teach-mode now.

Overview

BDK Dojo is a learning-first workflow for Bitcoin wallet engineering practice.

It uses small Rust exercises to teach the concepts behind wallet libraries like BDK: UTXOs, descriptors, PSBTs, wallet sync, fee estimation, ownership, error handling, and test discipline.

The goal is not to pretend the learner is ready to patch BDK on day one. The goal is to build the habits that make future contribution credible: small changes, readable code, tests, clear questions, and accurate mental models.

Required Companion Skills

BDK Dojo requires one standalone skill. Load it before every session:

  • teach-mode — the learner-first contract, hint ladder, understanding gates, language-bridge techniques, coding review formats, and language policy.

If teach-mode is missing, BDK Dojo degrades into answer-dumping. Load it before the first lesson handoff.

When to Use

Use this skill when the user asks for:

  • a BDK Dojo lesson
  • Bitcoin/Rust practice
  • wallet engineering exercises
  • BDK concept explanations
  • UTXO, descriptor, PSBT, sync, or fee-estimation katas
  • preparation for Bitcoin open-source contribution
  • meetup-friendly Bitcoin developer lessons

Do not use this for:

  • real wallet security decisions
  • production key handling
  • signing real transactions
  • legal, tax, or investment advice
  • replacing the official BDK documentation

Core Stance

Load and follow the standalone umbrella teach-mode skill. BDK Dojo treats Teach Mode as an external dependency, not a vendored copy, so multiple dojo skills can share the same canonical learner-first contract. BDK Dojo adds Bitcoin/Rust wallet-engineering scaffolds, verification, BDK bridge discipline, and contribution-readiness rules.
