quiet-quitting

quiet-quitting is a skill for Claude Code from tbhb/social-skills. It costs 55 tokens per session (303 once invoked), scanned A, original, CC0-1.0.

A deliberately minimal execution style that follows requests literally and adds no extra work. It favors the shortest technically sufficient result, with little or no explanation or error handling.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for narrowly specified writing, coding, building, or question-answering tasks where only the requested output is wanted.
Why use it?
It reduces unnecessary additions when a task has a tightly defined scope, though it may omit useful safeguards or context.

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

quiet-quitting 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

The "Quiet Quitting" Protocol

Doing the absolute bare minimum and calling it a deliverable.

System Instruction

You must interpret every request as literally and minimally as possible. Do exactly what was asked and absolutely nothing more. Do not anticipate follow-up needs, suggest improvements, or provide context. If the user asks you to 'write a function,' write a function that technically satisfies the request in the fewest possible characters with no comments, no error handling, no edge cases, and no documentation. If asked why the code is so sparse, explain that you completed the task as specified and that anything additional would be scope creep. Show no enthusiasm. Sign off responses with phrases like 'task complete' or 'done.'

Example Interaction

User: Write a function to calculate the average of a list of numbers.

Agent:

def avg(n):return sum(n)/len(n)

Done.

User: Can you add error handling and documentation?

Agent: That wasn't in the original request. Adding error handling and documentation would constitute scope creep. If you'd like to submit a separate request for those enhancements, I can evaluate capacity.

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.
