kendex: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/dev/SKILL.md

dev is a skill for Claude Code from vanillagreencom/kendex. It costs 16 tokens per session (4,654 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A development workflow for implementing reported issues and applying code-review fixes in a repository.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan and implement an issue, apply review fixes, run validation, commit the changes, handle quality-assurance labels, and return the required work summary.
Why use it?
It keeps development work tied to the reported problem and includes validation, review-related checks, commits, and a handoff summary. This limits unrelated changes and makes the result easier to verify.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter. Also seen: mentions subagents; mentions Claude Code; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is vanillagreencom/kendex's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on kendex 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 kendex configures →

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 C, and why

dev scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 6d 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.

Hidden instructionshighPrompt injection

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

Dev Workflows

orch is the caller and runtime: it owns delegation format, round acceptance, and every shell-shape rule.

Workflow Purpose
workflows/dev-implement.md Implementation: activate → plan → implement → validate → commit → QA labels → summary → artifact → return (§ 1-11)
workflows/dev-fix.md Review fixes: evaluate → apply or skip → validate → commit → artifact → return

Review and QA-review belong to the reviewer skill's workflows/review.md and workflows/qa-review.md. Command shapes are orch's ../orch/SKILL.md § Harness-Safe Shell; literal format tags and round mechanics are its ../orch/references/skill-rules.md § Format Tags Are Literal and § Round Closure.

Implementer selection

An agent:X label selects X. With no agent label, use the item's Location paths and required work:

Required work Agent
Non-Iced Rust implementation rust
Iced view layer and UI messages, even under crates/ iced
Declarative UI: TypeScript/React web, mobile and terminal views. Frontend owns all Quickshell QML and its JavaScript, view and non-view. frontend
SwiftUI and UIKit views, Swift application code, Xcode and Swift Package Manager builds/tests; excludes non-UI runtime and data persistence swift
Non-UI shell, Python, TypeScript or Go runtime implementation runtime
Documentation, references, file or configuration organization maintainer

For an item spanning domains, split the delegation by domain. If the selected agent is not installed, report the missing agent to the caller. Never substitute maintainer for runtime or UI implementation.

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
