autonomous-agent-patterns

autonomous-agent-patterns is a skill for Claude Code from sinhoneyy/master-skills. It costs 46 tokens per session (4,955 once invoked), scanned C, original, no licence file.

A set of design patterns for building coding agents that can work through tasks with limited human guidance. The patterns are inspired by Cline and OpenAI Codex.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when planning an agent that needs to break down goals, choose actions, use tools, or recover from mistakes.
Why use it?
It helps developers structure agent behaviour instead of designing each agent from scratch. It also provides a starting point for making autonomous coding work more predictable.

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 C, and why

autonomous-agent-patterns scanned grade C with 3 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.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

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.
