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 B, and why

the-y-coding-standard scanned grade B 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 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/audit_deps.py, scripts/check_agents_md.py, scripts/scan_secrets.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Strips warnings and disclaimersmediumAnti-refusal

Omitting safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 123 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

the_y_coding_standard

Yash Singh's opinionated standards for Python and React/Next.js development, the agentic engineering stack (AGENTS.md + folder layout), and agent governance. Hard-opinionated for v1. Personal-style, no diplomacy. This skill encodes the defaults Yash expects on every project he touches - apply them silently while writing code, surface them only when reviewing or auditing.

Workflow

  • For new code: identify the stack, load the matching reference(s) from references/, apply silently while writing. Don't lecture the user about the rules; just follow them.
  • For audits/refactors: read code thoroughly, load the matching reference(s), produce a structured audit (what violates, why it matters, what to change).
  • For project scaffolding: run the /y-init command or apply references/agentic-stack.md and references/project-scaffold.md.
  • For agent-governance audits: run /y-govern.

Reference Index (load only what's relevant)

Context Reference
Python (any framework: FastAPI, Django, Flask, scripts) references/python.md
React / Next.js / frontend references/react-nextjs.md
Non-React JavaScript / TypeScript (Node services, CLIs, libraries) references/javascript-typescript.md
Java / Spring Boot references/java-spring.md
C++ (any .cpp / .hpp / .cc / .h) references/cpp.md
Postgres, SQL, schema design, migrations, indexing references/database-postgres.md
Object-oriented design: SOLID, OOP pillars, clean-code principles, relationship types (any class-heavy code) references/oop.md
AGENTS.md, folder structure for agent-driven repos, plans/findings/progress/skills references/agentic-stack.md
Agent governance, security, audit, permissions references/governance.md
Project scaffolding: .claude, .conductor, .cursor, .devcontainer, .husky, .github, Docs/ references/project-scaffold.md

Load a reference only when its context actually applies. Do not load all ten at once. If the user is writing a React component, load react-nextjs.md and stop. If the diff is class-heavy or the user asks about SOLID, load oop.md alongside the stack reference. For Spring Boot work, load java-spring.md and oop.md together (Java is class-heavy).

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.
