ReignsAgent: Skill for Claude Code

.agent/skills/trellis-break-loop/SKILL.md

trellis-break-loop is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Sisyphe42/ReignsAgent. It costs 50 tokens per session (1,601 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A post-fix review method for finding why a bug happened and why earlier fixes failed. It also turns the lessons into project specifications and prevention steps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after debugging to classify the root cause, examine missed cases or assumptions, and record tests, rules, or documentation that should prevent a repeat.
Why use it?
It helps prevent the same type of bug from returning after the immediate fix is done.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

This is Sisyphe42/ReignsAgent's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on ReignsAgent itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything ReignsAgent configures →

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

trellis-break-loop 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 8d 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.

Break the Loop - Deep Bug Analysis

When debug is complete, use this for deep analysis to break the "fix bug -> forget -> repeat" cycle.


Analysis Framework

Analyze the bug you just fixed from these 5 dimensions:

1. Root Cause Category

Which category does this bug belong to?

Category Characteristics Example
A. Missing Spec No documentation on how to do it New feature without checklist
B. Cross-Layer Contract Interface between layers unclear API returns different format than expected
C. Change Propagation Failure Changed one place, missed others Changed function signature, missed call sites
D. Test Coverage Gap Unit test passes, integration fails Works alone, breaks when combined
E. Implicit Assumption Code relies on undocumented assumption Timestamp seconds vs milliseconds

2. Why Fixes Failed (if applicable)

If you tried multiple fixes before succeeding, analyze each failure:

  • Surface Fix: Fixed symptom, not root cause
  • Incomplete Scope: Found root cause, didn't cover all cases
  • Tool Limitation: grep missed it, type check wasn't strict
  • Mental Model: Kept looking in same layer, didn't think cross-layer

3. Prevention Mechanisms

What mechanisms would prevent this from happening again?

Type Description Example
Documentation Write it down so people know Update thinking guide
Architecture Make the error impossible structurally Type-safe wrappers
Compile-time Strict type checking, no escape hatches Signature change causes compile error
Runtime Monitoring, alerts, scans Detect orphan entities
Test Coverage E2E tests, integration tests Verify full flow
Code Review Checklist, PR template "Did you check X?"

4. Systematic Expansion

What broader problems does this bug reveal?

  • Similar Issues: Where else might this problem exist?
  • Design Flaw: Is there a fundamental architecture issue?
  • Process Flaw: Is there a development process improvement?
  • Knowledge Gap: Is the team missing some understanding?

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.

trellis-break-loop is a skill published in the GitHub repository Sisyphe42/ReignsAgent (298 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 1,601 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
