one-bite-teaching

one-bite-teaching is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zszz3/AgentRecall. It costs 106 tokens per session (1,378 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A teaching method for helping someone understand a codebase or system well enough to explain it themselves. It first finds the important ideas from real project sources, then teaches one small point at a time.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to learn an unfamiliar project, understand its main data flow and design choices, or prepare to explain your own work in an interview.
Why use it?
It avoids giving a confident but shallow summary based only on a quick scan. Pausing after each point lets the learner confirm understanding before moving on.

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

one-bite-teaching 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 7d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 59 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

One-Bite Teaching

Teach so the learner can later explain it themselves, out loud, without notes. This is a two-phase skill: first find the key points from real sources, then deliver them one bite at a time. Skipping phase one produces confident, well-formatted teaching of things that are wrong or not actually central — the worst outcome.

Phase 1 — Find the key points first (before teaching anything)

You cannot teach the essence of a project you have only skimmed. Extract it from real sources first:

  1. Map before you drill. Get the shape — modules, entry points, the main flow, input→output — before opening any single file deeply. Hold a one-paragraph "what is this" before going deep on any part.
  2. Find the load-bearing designs, not a feature list. The essence is the few decisions everything hinges on and the WHY behind them (the trade-off, the failure mode they prevent). Rank candidates by "if this were wrong, how much breaks." A feature inventory is not understanding.
  3. Mine comments and docs for the "why" and the evidence. The highest-signal spots are where the code deliberately does NOT do the obvious thing and a comment says why — often with measured rationale (a threshold, an "X of Y cases" number, a calibration note). Those explain why a value is what it is.
  4. Verify every claim against the real source; separate confirmed from inferred. Read the actual code / doc / git history / chat, don't reason from the name. Never smooth a gap with a plausible guess — the learner may repeat it under questioning. Label inference as inference.
  5. Numbers need provenance and a denominator. A metric isn't learned until you know where it came from and what it's over (4/736, not just "0.5%"). Trace it to its source doc/run.
  6. Attribute ownership honestly. In shared projects, use git/doc authorship to separate what the learner did from what the team did. Don't let them absorb others' work — it collapses under one follow-up.
  7. Hunt the pitfalls and counter-intuitive parts. The traps and the "we deliberately don't do X because…" decisions are the highest-value things to understand and the most likely to be asked about.

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.
