shared-system-init-shape-parity

shared-system-init-shape-parity is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ychampion/cskill-agents. It costs 32 tokens per session (611 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A shared builder for system-startup or capability messages sent through different transports, such as a stream, bridge, or headless connection. Each transport supplies inputs and delivery details while the builder keeps the message shape identical.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for agent systems that announce capabilities or session details through multiple communication paths.
Why use it?
It prevents clients and tests from receiving different schemas for the same initialization event.

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

shared-system-init-shape-parity 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.

SKILL: Shared System Init Shape Parity

Domain: transport-architecture Trigger: Use when the same system init or capability-announcement payload is emitted from multiple entrypoints or transports and downstream clients depend on one stable schema. Source Pattern: Distilled from reviewed remote-control, bridge transport, and capability-advertising implementations.

Core Method

Define one canonical builder for the init payload and make every entrypoint call it. Put field names, defaults, derived state, feature-gated fields, and final key shaping inside that builder, not in the callers. Each transport path should do only path-local work: gather inputs, prefilter or redact collections when policy requires it, and choose when to send the message. This keeps the wire schema identical across stream, bridge, headless, or future transports so clients and tests do not drift between supposedly equivalent init events.

Key Rules

  • Make the shared builder own the full schema contract, including optional and feature-gated fields plus derived values such as session identifiers or fast-mode state.
  • Let callers vary only inputs and delivery mechanics. They may filter commands, redact sensitive inventories, or load metadata asynchronously, but they should not hand-assemble sibling init objects.
  • If two paths describe the same conceptual event, route both through the same builder even when one yields into a stream and another pushes via a bridge writer.
  • Add new init fields once in the builder, then update callers only enough to supply the new inputs; never patch a field into one transport and plan to mirror it later.
  • Keep transport-specific policy outside the builder when it truly differs by caller. The builder should serialize the canonical shape from supplied inputs, not decide privacy, bridge safety, or connection timing on its own.
  • Review and test parity at the schema level, not just field-by-field intent, because drift usually appears as omitted, renamed, or differently defaulted keys.

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.
