codd-impact

An impact report for a CoDD project after requirements, design documents, code, or tests change. It identifies which related project artifacts may need updates and whether approval is needed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after changes to inspect downstream effects, decide what to update next, and determine whether propagation is allowed.
Why use it?
It turns a change into an action list for keeping requirements, design, implementation, and tests consistent. It helps decide whether updates can happen automatically or need human review.

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

codd-impact 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.

CoDD Impact Analysis

Use this skill after a requirements, design, code, or test change to determine what CoDD artifacts must be updated next. The goal is not only to read the impact report, but to decide whether the AI should update design documents immediately, ask a human for approval, or only report informational findings. Treat the impact report as an action queue for keeping requirements, design, implementation, and tests coherent.

Primary Command

Run impact analysis from the project root:

codd impact --path .

By default, this detects uncommitted changes (compares working tree to HEAD). No need to commit first.

If you need a report file:

codd impact --path . --output "codd/reports/impact_$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S).md"

If you need to compare against a specific commit instead of uncommitted changes:

codd impact --diff <commit-hash> --path .

Preflight

  1. Confirm you are at the project root and codd/codd.yaml exists.
  2. Confirm codd/scan/ directory exists (contains nodes.jsonl and edges.jsonl).
  3. If codd/scan/ is missing or empty, run:
codd scan --path .
  1. Run codd impact --path ..
  2. Read the report in this order:
    • Convention Alerts
    • Green Band
    • Amber Band
    • Gray Band

How To Act On Each Band

Convention Alerts

Convention Alerts have higher priority than Green, Amber, or Gray items. They mean an implicit rule may have been violated.

When a Convention Alert appears:

  1. Open codd/annotations/conventions.yaml.
  2. Find the rule that matches the reported target and reason.
  3. Identify which invariant is being protected and which changed artifact triggered it.
  4. Update the affected design docs, tests, or governance docs so the invariant is either preserved or explicitly re-decided.
  5. If the business rule itself changed, do not silently override it. Ask the human to confirm the convention change before editing conventions.yaml.

Green Band

Green Band means the impact is high-confidence and the AI may update affected design documents autonomously.

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.

codd-impact is a skill published in the GitHub repository yohey-w/codd-dev (114 stars, last pushed 22d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 1,319 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-30.
