Pair Programming

Pair Programming is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Soulcynics404/AgentForge. It costs 61 tokens per session (6,321 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of Pair Programming, MIT.

An AI-assisted pair-programming workflow where one role writes code and another guides or reviews it, with options for switching roles. It also supports testing, debugging, refactoring, and code review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for guided implementation, test-driven development, debugging, refactoring, security checks, and performance reviews.
Why use it?
It gives coding work a structured second perspective and checks changes as they are made. TDD, or test-driven development, means writing tests before the code they check.

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

Pair Programming 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 yesterday.

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.

Pair Programming

Collaborative AI pair programming with intelligent role management, real-time quality monitoring, and comprehensive development workflows.

What This Skill Does

This skill provides professional pair programming capabilities with AI assistance, supporting multiple collaboration modes, continuous verification, and integrated testing. It manages driver$navigator roles, performs real-time code review, tracks quality metrics, and ensures high standards through truth-score verification.

Key Capabilities:

  • Multiple Modes: Driver, Navigator, Switch, TDD, Review, Mentor, Debug
  • Real-Time Verification: Automatic quality scoring with rollback on failures
  • Role Management: Seamless switching between driver$navigator roles
  • Testing Integration: Auto-generate tests, track coverage, continuous testing
  • Code Review: Security scanning, performance analysis, best practice enforcement
  • Session Persistence: Auto-save, recovery, export, and sharing

Prerequisites

Required:

  • Claude Flow CLI installed (npm install -g claude-flow@alpha)
  • Git repository (optional but recommended)

Recommended:

  • Testing framework (Jest, pytest, etc.)
  • Linter configured (ESLint, pylint, etc.)
  • Code formatter (Prettier, Black, etc.)
