sts2-research-strategy

sts2-research-strategy is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ttxttx1111/sts2-llm. It costs 43 tokens per session (393 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research workflow for Slay the Spire 2, a deck-building game, that uses outside guides and discussions when the current run is hard to assess.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps decide fights, routes, rewards, deck types, and spending during a run, while preserving useful findings for later reviews.
Why use it?
It reduces guesswork by comparing several sources and applying their advice to the deck, relics, health, gold, potions, and map in front of you.

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

sts2-research-strategy 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 10d 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

STS2 strategy research workflow

Use this skill when the task is to resolve strategic uncertainty with outside evidence.

What this skill owns

  • web research for matchup, archetype, route, reward, or economy questions
  • comparing multiple sources instead of copying the first one
  • translating general advice into the actual run state
  • surfacing notes that are worth preserving in future reviews

Research loop

  1. Define the narrow question

    • examples: "Is this Ironclad Act 1 deck strong enough for an early elite?" or "How should Brand change early reward priorities?"
  2. Gather evidence from more than one source

    • prefer guides, discussion threads, or analyses that explain the tradeoffs
    • avoid treating one flashy line as authoritative
  3. Reconcile the advice with the run in front of you

    • deck
    • relics
    • HP
    • gold
    • map
    • potions
  4. Return a decision-oriented answer

    • say what the best line is now
    • say what assumption would make that line wrong
  5. Preserve anything durable

Constraints

  • Do not paste generic advice without adaptation
  • Prefer evidence-backed heuristics over one-off anecdotes
  • Keep the output concise and actionable
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.
