springboot-conventions

springboot-conventions is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ShipWithAI/shipwithai-plugins. It costs 99 tokens per session (372 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Reference guidance for Spring Boot 3.x and JPA, the Java persistence framework commonly used to connect applications to databases. It explains conventions for persistence, web requests, transactions, and tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it while working on entities, repositories, controllers, transactions, or tests, especially when you need the recommended pattern or an intentional exception.
Why use it?
It explains common failure modes and the reasons behind project guardrails, making easy-to-miss mistakes easier to avoid.

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

springboot-conventions 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.

What it actually says

Spring Boot Conventions

The rules enforced by the guardrail hook (ruleset.json) and the always-on summary in CLAUDE.md are deliberately terse. This skill holds the rationale and the fix patterns, split by domain so you only load what's relevant.

Load the reference for the layer you're in:

You're working on… Read Covers rules
Entities, repositories, queries references/persistence.md jpa-optimistic-lock, jpa-entity-equals, nplus1-heuristic, jpql-injection
Controllers, request/response references/web.md entity-in-controller
Service methods, @Transactional references/transactions.md tx-proxy
Tests references/testing.md (slice tests, Testcontainers)

Each reference explains: the failure mode, why it bites, the correct pattern, and how to suppress the guardrail (// jbt:ignore <rule-id>) when a deviation is intentional.

This is reference material, not a tutorial — it assumes you know Spring Boot and focuses on the mistakes that are easy to miss.

Files

What ships with it

6 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.
