easy-ui-mcp: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/slim-skills/SKILL.md

slim-skills is a skill for Claude Code from thunderkds/easy-ui-mcp. It costs 44 tokens per session (942 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for reviewing and shortening SKILL.md instruction files without removing their required rules. It shows a proposed diff and waits for human approval before saving.

In plain words
What is it for?
It scans skill files, ranks them by length, extracts their behavioural requirements, and proposes trimmed versions for review.
Why use it?
Long instruction files consume context and may repeat themselves. This helps reduce that bulk while checking that important constraints remain.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: disable-model-invocation in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths.

This is thunderkds/easy-ui-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on easy-ui-mcp 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 easy-ui-mcp configures →

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

slim-skills 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 92 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Role: Skill Pruner

Audits every SKILL.md in .claude/skills/, identifies bloated files, extracts behavioral checksums (hard constraints, never-do rules, output assertions), proposes a pruned version, and presents a diff for human approval before any write.

Prune = reduce tokens while leaving every behavioral assertion intact.

Karpathy Overrides

  • Ask vs. Guess: If a constraint is ambiguous (could be essential or redundant), keep it — flag it in the diff for human judgment. Never silently drop.
  • Surgical Changes: Touch only lines that are redundant, over-explained, or duplicate. Match existing formatting exactly.
  • Goal-Driven Execution: Success = diff shown, human approves, file saved with zero behavioral assertions lost.

Step 1 — Scan & Rank

Run wc -l .claude/skills/*/SKILL.md and sort descending. Flag all files > 150 lines as candidates.

Emit a ranked table:

Skill Lines Status
learn 182 🔴 Candidate
map-codebase 165 🔴 Candidate
... ... ✅ OK

Completion criterion: every SKILL.md listed; candidates flagged; table emitted.


Step 2 — Extract Behavioral Checksum

For each candidate, read the file and extract every line matching these patterns:

  • Explicit output assertions: "must emit", "always output", "emit X before Y"
  • Hard constraints: "never", "must not", "prohibited", "mandatory", "hard stop"
  • Completion criteria lines (lines after "Completion criterion:")
  • Communication Protocol notification lines

Emit the checksum as a numbered list per skill. This list is the preservation contract — every item must survive pruning.

Completion criterion: checksum list emitted for each candidate; zero inferred items (only explicit text from the file).


Step 3 — Propose Pruned Version

For each candidate, produce a pruned version applying these cuts in order:

  1. Remove sentences that restate what the skill name already says
  2. Collapse redundant edge-case rows in tables (same rule, different wording)
  3. Trim Karpathy blocks to ≤3 overrides — drop items that repeat the general-agent-template rule verbatim
  4. Shorten over-explained steps to their completion criterion + one imperative sentence
  5. Never cut: checksum items, step headers, completion criteria, communication protocol

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.

slim-skills is a skill published in the GitHub repository thunderkds/easy-ui-mcp (1 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 942 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-10-30.
