backend-development

backend-development is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from VoDaiLocz/kilo-kit-mcp. It costs 135 tokens per session (1,039 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of ck:backend-development, Apache-2.0.

A guide for building server-side software: the part of an application that handles data, business rules, logins, and connections to databases or other services. It covers technologies such as Node.js, Python, Go, Rust, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Redis.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design REST, GraphQL, or gRPC APIs, build authentication, improve database queries, add caching, plan services, test systems, and prepare deployment and monitoring.
Why use it?
It helps turn backend requirements into organized APIs and services while addressing security, testing, performance, and scaling concerns.

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

backend-development 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 8d 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.
