add-experimental-feature

add-experimental-feature is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sdeonvacation/opencode-x. It costs 17 tokens per session (1,314 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for adding an experimental feature to opencode-x, including its configuration setting, default behaviour, checks, and tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when introducing a new opt-in or default-enabled experimental capability, adding its configuration schema, gating checks, interface command rules, guides, and tests.
Why use it?
It helps prevent an unfinished or risky feature from being enabled or disabled by mistake and keeps all required wiring in place.

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

add-experimental-feature 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 4d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 144 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Context

opencode-x has ~30 experimental features. Each needs: a schema entry, a gating check, optionally a TUI command gate, and guide/test updates. Three different default patterns exist — getting this wrong ships a feature silently enabled or permanently disabled.

Default Pattern Decision

Desired default Pattern Example
ON by default (most features) cfg.experimental?.X !== false goal_system, swarm, workflow
OFF by default (risky/large) cfg.experimental?.X === true deep_research, wire_diagnostics
Numeric default cfg.experimental?.X ?? N tool_result_budget ?? 50_000

Steps

1. Add schema entry — src/config/config.ts

Find the experimental object schema (around line 1693). Add:

// Default-on boolean:
my_feature: z.boolean().optional().describe("Enable my feature"),

// Opt-in boolean:
my_feature: z.boolean().optional().describe("Enable my feature (opt-in)"),

// Numeric with default:
my_feature_budget: z.number().int().positive().optional().describe("Budget for my feature (default: 50000)"),

Tunables (model, limits) are fine to keep as separate keys. Only add a boolean gate if the feature itself needs an on/off switch.

2. Gate the tool — src/tool/registry.ts

Find the tool list around line 199:

// Default-on:
...(cfg.experimental?.my_feature !== false ? [MyTool] : []),

// Opt-in:
...(cfg.experimental?.my_feature === true ? [MyTool] : []),

3. Gate behavior in session — src/session/prompt.ts or src/session/processor.ts

Use the same pattern as step 2 wherever the feature is invoked in the session loop.

4. Gate TUI slash command — src/cli/cmd/tui/app.tsx

CRITICAL: SDK type mismatch. The sync.data.config type comes from @opencode-ai/sdk/v2 and may not include new experimental keys. Always cast through any:

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.
