metis: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/14-code-templates/SKILL.md

code-templates is a skill for Claude Code from terrene-foundation/metis. It costs 100 tokens per session (846 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A collection of Kailash SDK code templates for workflows, custom nodes, MCP servers, and unit, integration, and end-to-end tests. They provide starting structures for common development tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start a basic or cyclic workflow, create a custom node or MCP server, or add one of the three supported test types.
Why use it?
It reduces the time spent building boilerplate and helps keep new code consistent with the SDK's expected patterns.

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

code-templates 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 1mo 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.

Custom Development

  • template-custom-node - Custom node creation
    • Extend BaseNode, parameter definition, execute method, input validation, output formatting, registration
  • template-mcp-server - MCP server creation
    • MCPServer init, tool/resource registration, transport config, auth, progress reporting

Test Templates

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.
