rembric: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/zero-tech-debt/SKILL.md

zero-tech-debt is a skill for Claude Code from susomejias/rembric. It costs 74 tokens per session (395 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A refactoring approach that reshapes code around the intended final design instead of preserving temporary workarounds from its history.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after features or migrations to remove obsolete flags and fallback paths, simplify components and workflows, and verify the cleaned-up behavior.
Why use it?
It removes unused compatibility code, dead branches, duplicate rules, and unnecessary complexity that make future changes harder.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is susomejias/rembric's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on rembric 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 rembric 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

zero-tech-debt 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 11d 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

Zero Tech Debt

Reshape the change from the intended end state, not from the historical path that produced the current patch. The goal is the code that should exist now, not the smallest diff from what's there.

Steps

  1. Name the end state. In one or two sentences, describe the product surface and architecture as if you were building it today.

  2. Find real callers before preserving anything. Grep for actual usage of each mode, prop, wrapper, route alias, or fallback. If nothing references it, delete it — do not "improve" it.

  3. Reshape around the final surface. Prefer one clear component or flow over mode flags. Split only when there is an obvious boundary: state, layout, controls, or domain commands.

  4. Move shared rules to one place. Feature flags, permissions, route gating, URL state, and command naming must not be duplicated across pages or buried inside view components.

  5. Verify the intended flow. Test the new behavior and the assumptions you deleted — anything that touched navigation, permissions, or persisted state.

Rules

  • Optimize for the code that should exist, not the smallest diff from the old shape.
  • Delete dead compatibility paths instead of polishing them.
  • Do not invent a generic framework for a single feature.
  • Keep the refactor scoped to what makes the final shape coherent — no opportunistic cleanup.
  • Prefer names that describe product intent over implementation history.
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.
