use-decision-table

use-decision-table is a skill for Codex from tetracoralla/decision-table. It costs 74 tokens per session (461 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Instructions for using a decision table to evaluate business facts and proposed actions against explicit, versioned rules. A decision table is a fixed set of conditions and outcomes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Evaluating decisions, checking proposed actions or configurations, validating changed rulesets, and reporting results, warnings, rule versions, or missing inputs.
Why use it?
It keeps bounded business judgments consistent and identifies missing facts instead of treating unknown information as false.

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

use-decision-table 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 8d 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

Use Decision Table

Move a bounded business judgment into the deterministic tools. Do not read the rules and reproduce their logic in prose or model reasoning.

Choose the tool

  • Call decision.evaluate when explicit facts must produce a business result.
  • Call decision.validate whenever a decision or constraint ruleset is new or changed, and before trusting it in an execution path.
  • Call constraint.check for a proposed action or candidate configuration.
  • Call constraint.check_approved when the host exposes a pinned approved ruleset and the user needs a read-only check. The caller still supplies the candidate and facts; do not describe this as enforcement.

The selected tool exposes the complete current schema. Do not invent fields or convert prose into a ruleset unless the user asked to author policy.

Handle the result

  • On decided, valid, or valid_with_warnings, present the business result, material warnings, and ruleset version concisely.
  • On insufficient_input, obtain only the named missing facts from an authorized source and call the same tool again. Never treat missing as false.
  • On conflict, invalid_ruleset, inactive_ruleset, version_mismatch, or fingerprint_mismatch, stop the governed action and ask the ruleset owner to resolve the named issue.
  • On invalid, do not execute the candidate. Apply a repair hint only when the requested change is independently authorized, then re-check.

All tools are read-only. This Skill improves routing but cannot enforce policy. Do not authorize a governed side effect from either constraint tool alone. Real enforcement requires the host library guard to derive the candidate from the actual pending action, load trusted facts, and execute that same action snapshot only after a valid check.

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.
