rag-learning-academy: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/sandbox/SKILL.md

sandbox is a skill for Claude Code from TakaGoto/rag-learning-academy. It costs 13 tokens per session (650 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill that quickly creates a small RAG pipeline. RAG, or retrieval-augmented generation, lets an AI find relevant text from a collection before answering questions about it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Scaffolding a minimal Python or TypeScript RAG project, installing its dependencies, and creating sample data for experimentation.
Why use it?
It gives learners a working experiment with sample data without requiring them to assemble the pipeline from scratch.

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

sandbox 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 10d 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.

Sandbox: Get a Working RAG Pipeline in 5 Minutes

Scope: This skill scaffolds a minimal pipeline for quick experimentation. For guided, step-by-step building with explanations, use /build.

Scaffold a complete, minimal RAG pipeline with sample data so the learner has something running immediately. This is for experimentation, not production.

Language awareness: See .claude/LANGUAGE_AWARENESS.md.

Step 1: Check Environment

Read progress/learner-profile.md for the learner's chosen language. If no profile exists, default to Python.

Check if dependencies are installed. If not, guide the learner through setup:

Python:

pip install chromadb langchain sentence-transformers

TypeScript:

npm install chromadb langchain @langchain/community

For Go/Rust, note that setup is more manual and offer to walk through it.

Step 2: Create the Sandbox

Create a sandbox/ directory with three files:

File 1: Sample Data (sandbox/data.txt)

A short collection of 5-10 paragraphs about a topic (e.g., coffee brewing methods, or RAG itself). Keep it under 2000 words. The data should be interesting enough that queries feel meaningful.

File 2: The Pipeline (sandbox/pipeline.[ext])

A single-file RAG pipeline that:

  1. Loads the sample data
  2. Chunks it (fixed-size, 200 tokens, 50 overlap)
  3. Embeds chunks using a local model (all-MiniLM-L6-v2)
  4. Stores in ChromaDB (in-memory)
  5. Takes a query, retrieves top-3 chunks
  6. Prints the retrieved chunks with similarity scores

No LLM generation step yet. Keep it simple: retrieval only.

File 3: README (sandbox/README.md)

Quick instructions: how to run it, what to try, and 3 suggested experiments:

  1. Try different queries and see what comes back
  2. Change the chunk size and see how results change
  3. Add your own data file and query it

Step 3: Run It Together

Run the pipeline with a sample query and show the output. Walk through what happened at each step: "Here's where it chunked your data... here's the embedding step... here's what ChromaDB returned."

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.

sandbox is a skill published in the GitHub repository TakaGoto/rag-learning-academy (19 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 13 tokens to every session and 650 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
