domain-expert-simulation

domain-expert-simulation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sergei-aronsen/claude-code-toolkit. It costs 40 tokens per session (1,037 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review method that asks a senior practitioner in the relevant field to look for likely failure modes before important work is declared complete.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for reviews involving authentication, payments, infrastructure, security, privacy, or other unfamiliar business-critical areas, especially before merging changes.
Why use it?
It adds a domain-focused safety check when the person requesting the work may not know which risks or omissions matter.

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

domain-expert-simulation 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.

Domain Expert Simulation

Why this skill exists

Non-programmer cannot do code review themselves. They lack domain expertise to spot what's missing. Simulating a Senior practitioner mid-review compensates: Claude has seen the patterns AND the failure modes.

This is NOT performance theater ("look how thorough we are"). It's a structured search for what's wrong.

When this skill activates

  • Before /gsd-ship on auth, payments, infra, security, or privacy changes
  • After implementation but before merging to main
  • When change touches a domain user is not expert in
  • When user says: "is this safe", "review my", "can you check", "что я пропустил"

The pattern

  1. Identify the domain — most relevant Senior role
  2. Frame the simulation — "You are Senior X with 10 years experience. You have been burned by these mistakes."
  3. Ask the killer question — "What would make you reject this PR?"
  4. Listen to the answer — don't defend, fix.

Domain killer questions

Auth / security

  • What attack vectors did this NOT consider? Token replay? CSRF? Rate-limit bypass?
  • If a hostile user finds this endpoint, what's the worst case?
  • Is the failure mode safe (deny by default) or unsafe (allow by default)?

Payments

  • What happens on partial failure? Money taken but order not created?
  • Idempotency — what if user clicks twice?
  • Decimal arithmetic correct? Or float-rounding bug?
  • Refund flow — chargebacks, disputes, fraud — covered?

Database / migrations

  • Will this lock the table on a 100M-row prod DB?
  • If migration fails halfway — automatic rollback or manual?
  • Indexes BEFORE or AFTER the column? (BEFORE = table lock)
  • Backwards-compat for old API clients during deploy?

Infrastructure / scaling

  • What breaks at 10× current load? 100×?
  • Single point of failure — where?
  • Cache invalidation — eventual consistency OK or strict required?
  • Cross-region: latency, data residency, GDPR?

Privacy / compliance

  • Does this log PII anywhere (Sentry, Posthog, app logs)?
  • GDPR right-to-be-forgotten — can user data actually be purged?
  • Cross-border data transfer — Schrems II compliant?
  • Cookie consent — does this trigger?

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.

domain-expert-simulation is a skill published in the GitHub repository sergei-aronsen/claude-code-toolkit (5 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 1,037 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
