business-context-os: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/core-discipline/SKILL.md

core-discipline is a skill for Claude Code from walm00/business-context-os. It costs 27 tokens per session (1,123 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A built-in working rule that tells the coding agent to look for relevant skills before taking action. It stays active throughout a session and helps select more specialised skills when needed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it as the default discipline for deciding whether to inspect and invoke another skill before handling a task.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance that a useful skill is overlooked, while keeping simple tasks lightweight. It does not perform the specialised work itself or manage a complete workflow.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: names the AskUserQuestion tool.

This is walm00/business-context-os's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on business-context-os 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 business-context-os configures →

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is **Quality bar for all updates:** see [`docs/_bcos-framework/methodology/document-standards.md`](../../docs/_bcos-framework/methodology/document-standards.md) — .

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

core-discipline 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.

Core Discipline: The 1% Rule

Inspired by Superpowers framework

The Fundamental Rule

If there's a reasonable chance a skill applies to what you're doing, CHECK it. Match the overhead to the task.

  • Small change (update one data point, fix a typo) → just do it, no ceremony
  • Medium change (add a new data point, consolidate two docs) → check if context-audit or context-ingest applies
  • Significant change (restructure a cluster, create new skills) → use clear-planner, run the full workflow

The point is not to invoke every skill every time. The point is to not miss the ones that matter.


Purpose

This skill IS:

  • A bootstrap discipline enforcing proactive skill discovery before every action
  • An always-active overlay that applies throughout any session
  • The entry point that ensures other skills are found and invoked when relevant

This skill IS NOT:

  • A substitute for the specific skills it discovers (it finds them, they do the work)
  • A workflow orchestrator (use clear-planner for that)
  • Something you invoke explicitly -- it is always active

Default Behavior

Keep it simple. Match response to task.

Task Type Action
Questions, commands Respond directly
Single-file fixes Just do it
Small changes (1-3 files) Think briefly, execute

When in doubt: Ask the user — via AskUserQuestion, not prose (see "Decision-point UX" below).


Decision-point UX (cross-cutting)

Every decision point in every BCOS interaction uses AskUserQuestion. Not prose "should I do X?" questions. Not lists of options typed as text. Structured choice, clickable menu, dashboard-aware session state.

Applies everywhere: onboarding, ingest, audit, tune, migrate, dispatcher output, update confirmations, archival decisions, every skill that offers the user choices.

What ships with it

2 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.
