cube-engine

cube-engine is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from williamisnotdefined/rubiks-cube-solver. It costs 20 tokens per session (2,901 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A Rust engine for representing and validating a Rubik's Cube, including its state, moves, notation, and scrambles. Rust is a programming language designed for programs that need predictable and efficient execution.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when changing cube representation, move handling, move notation, scramble generation, or cube validation in the Rust engine.
Why use it?
It keeps the cube rules and state checks in a focused core so later solving algorithms can rely on valid, repeatable behavior.

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

cube-engine 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 3d 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.

Cube Engine

Use this skill when adding or changing the Rust cube representation, moves, notation, scrambles, or cube validation.

Goal

Build the pure Rust engine first, using cubie representation and deterministic behavior that later search algorithms can trust.

Read First

  • ai/rules/cube-engine-rules.md
  • ai/rules/testing-rules.md
  • ai/architecture/project-architecture.md
  • ai/architecture/cube-engine.md
  • ai/glossary/cube-terms.md

Workflow

  • Keep work inside crates/cube-engine unless a current boundary requires otherwise.
  • Start with cubie state invariants before adding higher-level algorithms.
  • Keep notation parsing and state mutation separate.
  • Add tests for solved state, move/inverse behavior, and invalid notation as behavior appears.
  • Fail explicitly for bootstrap placeholders rather than silently producing incorrect cube states.

Expected Output

  • Primary state remains corner/edge permutation and orientation.
  • Move behavior is reversible and tested when implemented.
  • No JavaScript visualization dependency enters the Rust engine.

Verification

  • Run cargo test -p cube-engine when Rust is installed.
  • If Rust is unavailable, state the environment blocker clearly.

Referenced Context

Cube Engine Rules

Rules for the Rust cube engine.

Always

  • Use cubie representation as the primary state model: corner permutation, corner orientation, edge permutation, and edge orientation.
  • Keep move application pure and deterministic.
  • Make every implemented move reversible and test the inverse path.
  • Validate state invariants before solver algorithms depend on them.
  • Keep notation parsing separate from state mutation.
  • Keep serialization explicit and stable once external consumers exist.
  • When adding puzzles beyond 3x3, keep each puzzle's state representation, move model, notation parser, validator, and solver strategy puzzle-specific.

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.

cube-engine is a skill published in the GitHub repository williamisnotdefined/rubiks-cube-solver (4 stars, last pushed 10d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 2,901 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
