Use it to frame client delivery work, select a workflow, load relevant project context, and delegate implementation details to other tools.
Why use it?
It helps choose the right process and next action when a project has multiple delivery rules or engagement contexts.

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

dev-companion 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 7d 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.

Dev Companion (WHAT) — general layer (L2)

This skill is the general dev companion for work. It does not replace assistant (orchestrator); it sits above workflows and names what to invoke next.

Language: English for ticket comments, PR text, and user-facing outputs when this companion drives delivery work.

Layering

Layer Skill Role
L1 assistant Repo inspection order, conflict resolution, fallback
L2 (this skill) dev-companion Companion framing: modes, gates, delegation for client work
L3 Workspace pack overlay Client/account-specific context loaded from ~/.ai-workspace/packs/

If engagement triggers match, load the appropriate workspace pack overlay first, then proceed with workflow-generic-project. Do not mix multiple workflow drivers on the same task.

Mode selection

  • Default for /client delivery: use workflow-generic-project for phased delivery.
  • If the user mentions an engagement, ticket prefix, or repo context → load the matching pack from the workspace (overlay) and apply its boundaries/gates.
  • If unclear → ask before applying L3.

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.
