discuss-change

discuss-change is a skill for Claude Code from tobihagemann/turbo. It costs 46 tokens per session (2,700 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided discussion workflow for deciding how a software change should work before implementation. It asks about unresolved product choices, agrees on the approach, and then starts implementation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when you want to be interviewed about a change, settle its design, and then implement the agreed result.
Why use it?
It prevents code from being written around unstated requirements or unresolved choices such as optional versus required behavior. The discussion creates a shared understanding of the change.

    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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

discuss-change 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 today.

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 — 109 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Discuss Change

Escalate open decisions, agree on the implementation shape, then implement.

Task Tracking

Use TaskCreate to create a task for each step:

  1. Capture the task
  2. Escalate product decisions
  3. Deep-dive discussion
  4. Confirm the shape
  5. Act on the user's reply
  6. Run /implement skill

Step 1: Capture the Task

Absorb the request without interrupting. Take the task from the user's request, or from conversation context when the task was already established. Restate the goal in one or two sentences and confirm.

Step 2: Escalate Product Decisions

Identify product or design decisions the request did not resolve. Escalate these via AskUserQuestion before any code is written. Read the code the change would touch before judging whether a bullet matches. Skip when no bullet below matches the change.

Escalate when:

  • The change requires choosing between user-facing behaviors the request did not specify (opt-in vs opt-out, strict vs lenient, sync vs async)
  • The change assumes product requirements that were not stated
  • Design trade-offs affect UX or product direction rather than technical implementation
  • Multiple valid approaches exist and the choice is a matter of product preference, not technical merit
  • The change would introduce a pattern not yet established in this codebase, or follow one sourced from outside it
  • The change adds consistency or durability machinery (a lease, lock, queue, versioning scheme, or new persistent entity) that no stated requirement demands; carrying that machinery is itself a product decision
  • A constraint on the solution that someone other than the user set and the user has not confirmed, such as a request relayed from another session or a consuming project's stated needs, rules out an option that is sounder on technical merit; offer that option and name the constraint it relaxes

Do not escalate technical decisions the agent can make autonomously: which data structure, which existing pattern to follow, internal implementation approach. The boundary is product intent.

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.
